As you know, finding great Cowboys Tickets is probably the hardest part of being a Dallas supporter, but here you will find information on how to obtain 'hard to get' and 'sold out' tickets.
Previous Seasons
Your Dallas Cowboys are back and ready to take on the rest of the NFL. After posting an impressive 11-5 record, the Boys are attempting to defend their NFC Division title and hope to be playing in Super Bowl XLV at home in Cowboys Stadium.
Adding depth to the receiving corps is No.1 draft selection Dez Bryant who will join Roy Williams, Myles Austin, Patrick Crayton and Sam Hurd as well as Tight Ends Jason Witten and Martellus Bennett.
The team is again coached by Wade Phillips, who is in the final year of his contract extension. Phillips led the team to NFC Division Crown last season but lost to the Minnesota Vikings in the Divisional Playoffs.
Look for the offense to take full advantage of their “Three Headed Monster” the team’s name for their running attack that features Marion Barber, Felix Jones and Tashard Choice. This will be the first time that all three will begin the season healthy and ready to contribute. The real focus will be on a patchwork offensive line. If the O-line can get healthy, teams will have a hard time stopping them.
The Boys opened up camp with no camera and sound crews from HBO, no Pacman and no Tank. This season, Jerry Jones wants the press to be focused on his team and their new digs, Cowboys Stadium. The team released backup QB Brad Johnson, and refused to resign QB Brooks Bollinger. They then traded CB Anthony Henry to Detroit for QB John Kitna and later that day, All-Pro LB Keith Brooking. The Cowboys lost DE Chris Canty who signed with the Giants so they turned around and signed former Charger Igor Olshansky to replace him. The Boys then cut WR Terrell Owens and signed Safety Gerald Sensabaugh to a one-year deal. The Boys also resigned WR’s Sam Hurd and Miles Austin. Pro-Bowler DE Greg Ellis was released on June 2, 2009.
The 2008 Dallas Cowboys came into camp trying to shake off the disappointment of their early exit in the 07 playoffs courtesy of the New York Giants. In the shakeup that followed, receiver Terry Glenn was released, FB Oliver Hoyte was released and T Jason Ferguson, LB Akin Ayodele and TE Anthony Fasano were traded to the Miami Dolphins. In the draft, the Cowboys used two picks to draft running backs Felix Jones (1st/22nd overall) and Tashard Choice (4th/122nd overall). The franchise also picked up TE Martellus Bennett, 6’6” Texas A&M product. And, it wouldn’t be a Cowboys season without some kind of other back story and this fell on the trade for former Titan DB Adam “Pacman” Jones. The Titans were willing to do anything to get Jones away from their franchise that they loaded the options on the contract making it hard for Dallas to resist. Jones began the season with the Cowboys and was off to a great start (13 tackles, 2 pass deflections and a fumble recovery) and the NFL world waited for Pacman to blow up. They didn’t have to wait long as Jones was involved with an altercation with his bodyguard in a downtown Dallas hotel. Jones was suspended for four games and the Cowboys, because of contract stipulations, received a Titans 2009 fifth round pick as well as received their 6th round pick back from the Titans. Jones returned after his suspension and was injured in a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. On February 9, 2009, Jones was officially released by the Cowboys.
Although the team finished 9-7, they failed to make the playoffs.
The 47th season for Americas Team began with high hopes and visions of the Super Bowl dancing in the players and coaching staffs heads and the season began with a 6-1 record going into the bye week. The team would lose only three games and go into the playoffs with a first round bye and home field advantage. The Cowboys were eliminated in the Divisional Playoff against the eventual Super Bowl Champions New York Giants 21-17.
The Dallas Cowboys used to be “ America’s Team” back in the mid-90s, but a number of things happened to deteriorate the franchise. It all started when head coach Jimmy Johnson left the team after he couldn’t get along with the owner Jerry Jones after winning back to back Super Bowls. The team won another Super Bowl with Barry Switzer at the helm, but to be honest he was just winning with Jimmy’s team. Johnson was so instrumental in the Cowboys success of the 90s they should’ve renamed the team the “Fightin’ Jimmys.” The team found themselves with a spineless coach in the late 90s and the first few years of the 21 st century. In 2005, Jones finally loosened his grip on the team and made the marquee hire of Bill Parcells. In Parcells’ first season he led the Cowboys to a 10-6 record and the Cowboys first playoff berth in six seasons.
After the 6-10 meltdown in 2004, the Cowboys 'flipped the script' and decided to overhaul the the roster and the team’s defensive philosophy, while the offense is ready to pick up where its running game left off at the end of 2004. It comes in the name of rookie Julius Jones who ended that campaign with a seven game streak where he averaged 115 yards rushing. It was Jones brought speed to the running back position, a commodity the Cowboys had not seen since Emmitt Smith was in his prime in the mid ’90s. However the Cowboys are plugging a lot of new people into a lot of key positions. It’s a lot to expect all of them to mesh right out of the box. Parcells knew he needed to go out and get some of “his guys” which is a specific type of player that he likes to have on his team. In the off-season he did just that.
The team’s biggest move of the off-season was bringing in quarterback Drew Bledsoe. There are a number of skeptics out there saying that Bledsoe is washed up, but the reason he has been unsuccessful in the past few seasons was that he’s been what the offense is built on, and he can’t do that anymore. He can, however, be a very solid quarterback in a system that doesn’t require him to be “the man.”
The team also brought in other Parcells’ Guys like defensive tackle Jason Ferguson and right guard Marco Rivera. Those two will immensely help the team fill some gaping holes, especially Rivera. The Cowboys had a patchwork line last season and Rivera will solidify one more position with them.
In this year’s draft is where the Cowboys made their biggest triumphs. In last year’s draft the Cowboys traded out of the first round and they were paid off with a couple of picks in the first and second round this year. With their first pick the Cowboys grabbed Kansas State hybrid defensive end/outside linebacker Demarcus Ware. Ware is the kind of player that has a motor that never quits. He can line up as an end or be a stand up linebacker that can put pressure on the quarterback or drop back into coverage when needed. With their second pick they grabbed another player in that mold when they got LSU defensive end/outside linebacker Marcus Spears. All in all, the team used six of their eight picks on defensive players. With all of these young studs on the defense the Cowboys are going to be a hard team to light up in the coming years. This season, they will be much improved from last year, but give them two to three years before they can be mentioned among the elite defenses like Baltimore and New England.
Based in the city of Arlington, Texas, The Dallas Cowboys are a National Football League team that is sometimes referred to as America's Team due its having a large number of fans who live outside its immediate local area. Having made eight Super Bowl appearances and winning 5, the Cowboys are one of the most successful teams in the history of the NFL.
