There's so much up in the air about the 2021 season, but one thing is for sure; NFL clubs are going to have to tighten their purse strings. The Dallas Cowboys are no exception.

The Dallas Cowboys continue to battle injury issues and the prevailing themes of the first six weeks are coming to a head. It's one thing for the media and fans to speak on the issues the coaching staff is having, but when the players do so, anonymously? Nah. Tank?! Ummm, wut? Nah. Trade? Now we have something to talk about.
K.D. and Patrik tag team the leaks, look ahead to the most dangerous player on Washington's roster and play the percentages of the most disappointing members of the team at this point in the season.

The reality has sunk in that Dak Prescott isn't going to be around to lead the team back from the abysmal start. So where do the Dallas Cowboys go from here? Patrik and K.D. chop it up about everything from the return of defensive stars, to how the team must adjust their offense given the circumstances. With the trade deadline in three weeks, should they be buyers, sellers or stand pat? The Cardinals are coming to town, or should we say Kliff and Kyler and coming home? Dissecting the Top 10 player rankings, predicting the headlines from Monday night's game and... hmmm... what did we forget... oh yeah, FADES!

3/11/2019
The Cowboys haven't dipped their toes into the free agency market just yet, but their fans sure have. The free agency frenzy set the markets for both safeties and slot receivers in a major way.

How do you properly submerge your kids into the Dallas Cowboys culture? And why does it have to be so life-altering to get a solid education for your young ones?

Drummond and Jonah Tuls go through some key results for players the Cowboys could be targeting with their first pick in the 2019 NFL draft and comb over who impressed and who had such horrific athletic displays that evaluators have to be wondering if there was something medically wrong.Find out how much weight should be put into the combine results, who was a riser, and who is making people go back and pour through hours of tape to see what they missed.

2/1/2019
The Cowboys No. 1 wideout calls in to discuss a myriad of things about his game and the time with the Cowboys. We discuss chemistry with Dak Prescott, his favorite routes and how the hell he gets so damn wide open all the time.
Also, what's the latest on his contract negotiations with the club, does he have any clue what Kellen Moore has in store for him and what would happen if he ever received the kind of volume receivers like Julio Jones and DeAndre Hopkins see.
It's all pre-empted by a wide-ranging discussion about the Cowboys 2019 needs at the wide receiver position. Buckle up because there's plenty of intel crammed into 15 minutes. Catch This Fade!

S4 Ep1: Kellen Moore. Kellen Moore??? Romo wants to coach!
1/29/2019
After the catastrophe of an offensive showing during the Pro Bowl, Jason Garrett's staff should've had to walk home to Dallas. At least according to some fans.
K.D. Drummond is joined by Patrik Walker as the two dissect the foolishness of caring one iota about an all-star game, dive into Tony Romo's admission he'll coach one day and what he had to say about the pending offense, coordinated by hipster Kellen Moore.

S3 Ep11: Who needs to go bye-bye during Cowboys' bye week?
10/26/2018
Another road game, another disaster loss for the Dallas Cowboys. This one came with a twist, though, as Dallas owner Jerry Jones went out and grabbed himself a No. 1 receiver soon after the game was over.
KD and Patrik go to work in breaking down how Amari Cooper can help Dallas' offense now that he's been brought in from Oakland. Of course, we fine-tooth the transaction, as well as the reasons why the Cowboys continue to struggle, handing out well-deserved fades to many.
Sit back, tune in and laugh as Catch The Fade drops that science.
