Stephen A. Smith has consistently held a critical stance towards the Dallas Cowboys, despite the team’s recent successes. His skepticism is grounded in several reasonable factors, primarily the team’s historical underperformance in the playoffs. Often, the Cowboys struggle when it matters most, with their last appearance in the NFC Championship game dating back to many years ago, leading to growing frustration among fans.
Nevertheless, each new season for the Cowboys typically starts on a positive note, characterized by poise and talent. Yet, as the season progresses, they tend to reveal vulnerabilities.

Additionally, Dak Prescott’s performance in crucial moments has been less than stellar, resulting in a lack of playoff triumphs. This ongoing disappointment has been tough for Cowboys fans to endure. However, this season, they believe they may have the NFL’s strongest team. Stephen A., on the contrary, holds a different viewpoint.
Following decisive wins over the New York Giants (40-0) and the Dallas Cowboys (30-10), Smith remains unimpressed by what he’s witnessing from the Cowboys. He attributes their success to a relatively weak schedule. In Stephen A.’s view, the team that truly deserves praise at this stage is the San Francisco 49ers, who also boast a 2-0 record but have faced significantly stronger opponents, namely the Steelers and the Rams. This, he considers to be far more impressive.
It is still too early to predict the Cowboys’ performance for the entire season. Upcoming challenges against the Washington Commanders and the persistent strength of the Philadelphia Eagles suggest that the road ahead remains uncertain for them.
