It could be argued that, after falling to 2-4 and seeing many of the grand plans of this 2026 Dallas Cowboys team sit utterly deflated following a 23-13 loss to the Packers on Sunday night in Green Bay, coach Brian Schottenheimer was in an impossible situation. What to say to your NFL team, after a devastating loss in which you were dominated on both sides of the ball, in which any progress made on the defensive side of the ball in the second half was offset first by the defense's poor play in the first half and the offense's poor play overall?
But Schottenheimer did go to the podium for his press conference on Sunday night and was asked what he said to the team.
His message: "The effort is right, the fight is right, but mistakes are killing us. Repeating mistakes is not what we're about. But we've got to protect the football. Five turnovers in two games, not very good. Got to find the running game. That starts with myself and the offensive staff. Got to get off the field on third down on defense, whether that's penalties or losing 1-on-1s. So, we got to clean it up. Lost two games in a row, not playing well. Got to take a hard look at it. Starts with me."
It is hard to say that, given the level of talent on this team–on the offensive line, in the receiver's room, at quarterback, at running back–that mistakes alone are the problem. The Cowboys did play harder and more aggressively on Sunday in Green Bay, that was obvious. But that also raises the question of where that effort and aggressiveness was in Week 5 against the Buccaneers, as well as at other times this season?
And, it could be argued, that the tendency toward mistakes with penalties and turnovers are a symptom of poor preparation and discipline. That's part of effort, and part of fight. So, it's hard to say that it's mistakes alone that are holding the team back.

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love completed 23 of his 41 pass attempts for 276 yards, one touchdown, and one interception versus the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6. Love also had 12 yards and a touchdown on four carries.
SOURCE: USA TODAY
Why It Matters: It's almost impossible to overstate how much Green Bay's receivers undercut Love's output on Sunday night. Matthew Golden dropped three passes, including two touchdowns, and Christian Watson dropped another sure touchdown as well in a win over the Cowboys. Despite that, Love still threw for almost 300 yards and accounted for two touchdowns while navigating porous blocking from his offensive line. The Packers' inability to run the ball has put the onus on Love to move the offense, and that has helped the Utah State product develop into arguably the NFL's most aggressive downfield passer. It seems to work out more often than not, and Love has a high-end end matchup in Week 7 against Detroit. Love is a strong QB2 that's playable as a QB1 in plus matchups.

Notre Dame is now 6-1 and ranked No. 4 in the AP Top 25 after a weird, wild, and controversial loss to the BYU Cougars. Yes, I think the Irish got hosed out of one final play, but none of that matters now. We saw 59 minutes and 59 seconds of football, and there are some things we learned.
Last week Boomer called Boubacar Traore a renaissance man, and he was absolutely right. This week… we got five plays out of Traore before he was ejected for targeting Bear Bachmeier on a late hit. Despite Notre Dame's depth at the position, the loss of Traore was massive for the Irish in the game —particularly in the first half when the defense was on its heels and needed better play up front to slow down what BYU was doing. The loss of Traore might very well be the essence of the full reason for Notre Dame's loss.
This second thing was supposed to be about Jonaz Walton and I went looking for snap counts. While the entire deal about Walton is valid and should be talked about after only getting 10 of the 81 snaps after rushing for 181 yards last week… the wide receiver situation might be the most heinous thing about the offense. On a night where Notre Dame's receivers couldn't get much separation from Cougar defenders, maybe they were gassed? The elevation was well over 5000 feet and Notre Dame only used 4 wide receivers all night. Jordan Faison, Micah Gilbert, and Jaden Greathouse were out there for almost every snap, and the fourth… well that was Mylan Graham with a whopping two snaps for the night.
For a good part of the first half, Notre Dame's defense didn't just play poorly — they looked confused. Presnap lineups and adjustments had several defenders running to the spot they were supposed to be, and BYU was snapping the ball before they got there. It looked very much like the Miami game last year, and some of that confusion led to slow and soft play. This, of course, is a Chris Ash problem and they made the proper adjustments at halftime to hold BYU to just 126 yards and 7 points in the final 29 minutes and 59 seconds of play. But… this is still a thing and will kill the Irish in a few weeks against Miami if it's not fixed for a full 59 minutes and 59 seconds — or do we play 60 minute games now?

Jets' Garrett Wilson reasons with stunningly quiet day in loss to Patriots appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The New York Jets were unable to defeat the New England Patriots on Sunday. New York made it more of a game late than it had been in the first half. But in the end, they couldn't get anything going. A major reason for this was the rather quiet day from wide receiver Garrett Wilson.
For most of the game, Wilson wasn't targeted much. In fact, the ball went his way just twice before the fourth quarter. He ended the game with four catches and 44 yards on six targets. After the game, he spoke about the lack of action his way.
"I try and reason it in my head because we've got a whole nother fourth quarter and I know that the game can change at any moment. Just try and keep playing my role, waiting for that moment that they want to call on me," the Jets wide receiver said, via SNY Jets.

Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens had six catches (on 11 targets) for 73 yards versus the Green Bay Packers in Week 6.
SOURCE: USA TODAY
Why It Matters: In the latest example of "garbage time points count the same," Pickens rode some consolation opportunities to lead the Cowboys in receiving with 73 yards on Sunday night. Prior to that, it was a forgettable evening for Dallas' No. 2 receiver. While it's still relatively early, it's safe to say that Pickens has not had the same level of impact that he did last season -- in 16 games (tossing out Week 18 when he hardly played), Pickens averaged 89 yards per game with nine TDs; thus far in 2026, he's averaging 71 yards per game with just one score. The fifth-year pro came into the season as a borderline WR1, but he's settled into being more of a midrange WR2.

Bills HC Joe Brady in awe of rookie's 'stickiness' in win vs. Raiders appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Buffalo Bills returned to the winning column after suffering their first loss of the season, handing the Las Vegas Raiders a 33-30 loss in Week 6 of the NFL season. While the spotlight largely remained on Josh Allen and James Cook for their heroic performances, Bills head coach Joe Brady made sure to highlight rookie cornerback Davison Igbinosun's 'stickiness' in coverage following the win.
During his postgame press conference, Brady praised Igbinosun's ability to remain close to opposing receivers and continue competing regardless of the outcome of individual plays.
"We were a little matchier today in coverage, and the stickiness kind of showed, and that's what IGB kind of does," Brady said. "And what I love about IGB is he just keeps playing, and they might take a shot, and he's going to go right back at it with the same mindset."

The Dallas Cowboys came into Lambeau Field on Sunday Night Football with a high-powered offense. Dak Prescott and company led the offense in many drive-based statistics, including the percentage of offensive drives ending in a score, plays per drive, and yards per drive.
Against Jonathan Gannon's aggressive Green Bay Packers defense, the Cowboys managed just seven points on nine offensive drives as the green and gold expanded their league-leading interception numbers. Evan Williams and rookie Brandon Cisse each picked off Dak Prescott, who was under pressure all night long, as the defense led the way in a 23-13 win that improved the Packers' record to 4-2.
Prescott's counterpart, Jordan Love, shook off an early interception of his own to put up a high-quality performance. That pick could have been a truly game-changing play, as it was originally returned for a touchdown that would have tied the game at 7 early on. Instead, the scoring return was nullified on review and the Packers' defense ended up getting a stop to keep Dallas off the scoreboard. The Packers' offense went on to convert each of their first seven third-down opportunities and finished 11-of-18 for the game as Love delivered under pressure time and time again.
Ultimately, Love failed to record multiple touchdown passes for the first time in a game all season, but it wasn't for lack of trying; he saw three potential touchdown passes get dropped by his receivers, but still managed to throw for 276 yards. Matthew Golden was the biggest offender, with two of those dropped scores and a third drop later in the game, but he did end the game with an excellent stat line: six catches for 104 yards and the only receiving touchdown of the game. Additionally, Love did end up being responsible for a second touchdown, getting the Packers' other score on a quarterback sneak just before halftime as the team led 17-0 heading into the break.
The Green Bay defense kept up its excellent play in the second half. After giving up a single touchdown early in the third quarter, they forced turnovers on downs twice in the fourth before allowing a touchdown in garbage time while holding a 16-point lead — though they came up with a big stop on the two-point conversion to largely put an end to the game.

Adams, 33, pulled up while running a route late in the fourth quarter, appearing to favor his left leg despite no visible contact with a defender. The veteran wide receiver limped toward the sideline and received attention from the Rams' medical staff.
Underdog NFL shared footage of the incident, showing Adams coming up lame before leaving the field.

Mike LaFleur is now 2-0 at SoFi Stadium in the 2026 season, his first leading the Arizona Cardinals.
The 18-16 victory of the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday didn't come by easy, but LaFleur got the best of Sean McVay by the time the clock hit zero.
Read more on what the Cardinals' head coach had to say in regards to the end of the game below.
The Cardinals were in control of the game for a large portion of the day.
However, the Rams' offense found life on their final drive. Quarterback Matthew Stafford was comfortable for the first time during the game. Wide receiver Puka Nacua found much of his production on the day here as well.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy registered game highs with seven receptions and 73 yards on his seven targets in Week 6 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
SOURCE: USA TODAY
Why it Matters: Worthy was the No. 1 receiver with Rashee Rice sidelined, and the former University of Texas standout looked the part. He had some big catches, and he quickly earned the trust of Patrick Mahomes. For now, consider him as WR4 or flex fantasy option with some upside, at least until Rice is healthy enough to return.

Why it Matters: With McConkey sidelined early, it was actually KeAndre Lambert-Smith who led the way with five receptions and nine targets. The Chargers are a mess with injuries, and it's probably to stay away from the entire team right now.

However, he was far from his best as he finished with just three catches on 10 targets for 27 yards with four drops. He also managed to drop an onside kick at the end of the game that the Pats still recovered to end the game.
Brown himself was critical of his poor performance after the game. Patriots coach Mike Vrabel was also honest with his ***** sment of his star receiver's return during the post-game press conference.
"I think he could've probably made a few more plays, come down with a few more plays. He's been out for a while. I know he wanted to do well for his football team. Unfortunately, it wasn't his best effort. I know that and he knows that. We have all the confidence in AJ to finish those plays," Vrabel said.

Cowboys' Dee Winters intercepts Jordan Love and but gets pick-6 overturned appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Coach Brian Schottenheimer's Dallas Cowboys hit the road to face Green Bay in Week 6 action that started with a pregame tiff. Matthew Golden beat the Cowboys defense for an early score but Dee Winters got his revenge with what looked like a pick-six.
It was later revealed by Matt Schneidman of The Athletic that Golden touched Winters down at the 42-yard-line. It was Dallas' first interception of the season and it included a phenomenal run-after-the-catch that ultimately did not count.
The Packers led 7-0 after one quarter and continued to apply pressure as their Jordan Love-led offense picked up where it left off before the interception. Golden's touchdown exposed a potential weakness on Schottenheimer's defense as the Packers spread out the Cowboys' defenders and found the matchup they liked for a well-executed touchdown pass play.
The game also included tough injury news for Dallas as receiver and return man KaVontae Turpin suffered a concerning injury. Joey Porter Jr. got an injury update leading up to the game and delighted Cowboys fans as he was able to take the field and compete against the Packers' powerful passing game.

The Kansas City Chiefs remain undefeated after taking down the Las Vegas Raiders 30-27 in Week 4. Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who entered the matchup averaging 77 yards per game, had a quiet outing, catching two passes for 15 yards.
However, the Chiefs may need Kelce to take on a major role each week from here on out after wide receivers Rashee Rice (hamstring) and Tyquan Thornton (dislocated ankle) went down with injuries in Las Vegas.
In the meantime, rumors swirl that the Chiefs may bring back Tyreek Hill, which Kelce thinks is a great idea.

Leanna Lenee has quietly become just as much of a gameday fixture as her husband, Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback and wide receiver Travis Hunter, and once again, she gave fans exactly what they show up for.
Ahead of the Jacksonville Jaguars' matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, Leanna stepped out in a custom teal-and-blue halter top emblazoned with "HUNTER" and the number 12 across the chest, paired with sleek black high-waisted pants featuring a cutout detail along the thigh. Her son matched her look almost piece for piece, dressed in a mini Jaguars romper carrying his father's name and number on the back. Leanna captioned the post simply: "Next question."
That two-word caption did little to slow down the response. However, this isn't the first time Leanna's gameday look has taken over the timeline either. Just weeks earlier, ahead of Jacksonville's matchup against the New England Patriots, she turned heads in a dusty blue bodycon dress covered in Jaguars patches, a jersey-number detail, and white cowboy boots, once again dressing her son in a coordinating fit down to the shoes. Fans' response then was nearly identical, with one commenter telling her outright she had "the cutest NFL wifey clothes," a sentiment that's clearly carried straight through to this latest appearance.
There was also plenty happening on the football side for the Hunter family to celebrate.

Davante Adams has NFL money, but one of his favorite flexes apparently can't be bought.
The Los Angeles Rams wide receiver showed off his Taco Bell Purple Card during an appearance on FanDuel TV's Up & Adams, revealing that the personalized card gives him essentially unlimited purchasing power at the fast-food chain.
Even more exclusive: Adams says only two people currently have one. The other is Kevin Hart.
COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.
"It's got my name on the back, so if anybody tries to rob me, you'll never be able to use it," Adams said while displaying the card. "It's like a credit card. This Purple Card is basically like a black card, but it's purple and can only be used at Taco Bell. But it is unlimited."

The Minnesota Vikings beat the Green Bay Packers to start the 2026 season with a win, but 29 of their points came in the final 17 minutes of the game. Plenty of questions surround the Vikings, and they don't solely revolve around the quarterback position.
Brian Flores' defense overwhelmed the Packers in the fourth quarter, but there were far too many wide-open Green Bay receivers throughout the day. Minnesota's offense did enough to win, but it will need more consistency moving forward so it isn't clawing its way back late in games.
The next opponent further amplifies these concerns. Next week, the Vikings travel to Soldier Field to face the Chicago Bears, who beat the Carolina Panthers 59-37 on Sunday. Minnesota will need to tighten things up so that they aren't involved in a shootout they can't keep up in.
Kyler Murray's long-awaited Vikings debut was cut short when he left the game with a concussion suffered in the first quarter. Carson Wentz replaced him, completing 12/19 passes for 133 yards and three touchdowns, doing enough to keep the offense on schedule.
But Murray's availability is already in question for next week. On Monday, Adam Schefter reported that "it looks like" Wentz will start next Sunday against the Bears, as Murray remains in concussion protocol.

As we have seen the past two years, a 12-team playoff is forgiving when it comes to early season losses. An early stumble does not have to result in panic as the expanded field allows for a mulligan or two – or three.
The above serves as ample reason as to why fans in Columbus and Eugene should turn the page and look ahead at what's next. While we are at it, what to make of a couple of other Big Ten teams after two weeks?
While Arch Manning rallied the Longhorns from a 23-3 deficit after three quarters to stun Ohio State and replace the Buckeyes atop the polls, Ryan Day's team is not about to disappear from the playoff conversation. There is much sting for sure in blowing a 20-point lead, but the larger picture is one that must be in focus because everything remains on the table.
Besides, fans in Columbus, perhaps more than any fan base in the country, know what it is like to have their team rebound following a most disappointing setback. See the 2024 loss against "The Team Up North" and what happened after that.
Those same fans likely desired to see their team keep its foot on the Longhorns' throat instead of letting up. Facing a fourth-and-four from the UT 39-yard line on the first series of the second half and with a 20-3 lead, Day elected to punt instead of attempting to keep the drive alive. The decision was made despite the outstanding first halves enjoyed by QB Julian Sayin (12-for-16, 192 yards) and receiver Jeremiah Smith (6-110). It is easy to Monday morning quarterback, though it is also easy to see the Buckeyes managed less 100 yards on only 22 plays the remainder of the game.

Packers news: Green Bay signs long-time WR to active roster appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Green Bay Packers made a move to bolster their wide receiver room on Monday, bringing up a familiar face from coach Matt LaFleur's team's practice squad. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Green Bay has called up receiver Bo Melton to the team's active 53-man roster. Melton has experimented at cornerback in the past and will join the Packers as a wide receiver.
Melton was drafted in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks and was briefly compared to Jaguars star Travis Hunter for his two-way play. He was signed off the Seahawks' practice squad in 2022 and has stuck with Green Bay as a backup. Melton had his best season that year with 16 catches for 218 yards and a touchdown. He has 29 receptions for 426 yards and two touchdowns in his Packers career.
Melton will join a team that is still reeling from a 39-22 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1. Green Bay failed to live up to LaFleur's standards against the Vikings and will soon look to rebound in a road game on September 20 against the New York Jets. LaFleur is squarely on the hot seat in some circles, and a loss to the Jets would start to make it feel even more uncomfortable.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist) suffered fractured wrist in the Week 1 game against the Indianapolis Colts, and he is expected to miss several weeks.
Lane was to have an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of the injury, and a timetable would then be set for his return. Test results are still pending. He managed one reception for 11 yards on three targets before he was knocked from the game.
SOURCE: RavensWire - Glenn Erby
Why it Matters: With Lane sidelined, and Zay Flowers leaving the game early due to a hamstring injury, the Ravens were down to Rashod Bateman, Chris Moore and LaJohntay Wester as the only healthy receivers Sunday. Devontez Walker was sidelined due to a groin injury, but he could play in Week 2, and rookie fourth-round pick Elijah Sarratt is also a possibility. He was a healthy inactive.

Is Courtland Sutton playing tonight? Why Broncos WR is off to quiet start vs. Chiefs originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Over quarterback Bo Nix's career with the Denver Broncos, wide receiver Courtland Sutton has been his most trusted target.
However, this season Sutton has new competition for targets after Denver added Jaylen Waddle in a blockbuster offseason trade.
While Waddle is off to a slow start in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Sutton hasn't gotten going either.
Here's a closer look at what's happening.

NFL rumors: Cowboys named Joey Porter Jr. trade fit, and it makes sense appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
It was a tough Week 1 for the Dallas Cowboys. The same can be said for Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. The Cowboys have been named a trade fit for Porter, and it makes even more sense after the disaster against the Giants.
The Cowboys landed at the top of Fowler's list of potential partners, according to ESPN.
"Dallas has been looking for cornerback help, though more so in the bargain bin to this point," Jeremy Fowler wrote. "The franchise has trade-market rapport with Pittsburgh GM Omar Khan. The sides have reached deals in back-to-back offseasons, as Dallas traded for wide receiver George Pickens in May 2025 and offensive tackle Broderick Jones on Aug. 29.
