Colin Cowherd has shared a bold perspective on the state of America’s team, claiming that the Dallas Cowboys are “in much worse shape than people think.” The popular sports analyst, during his show The Herd, expressed concern over the team’s future following the news of Head Coach Mike McCarthy‘s departure. Cowherd’s take on Dallas’ future is grim, suggesting that the Cowboys are heading for disaster.
Cowherd likened the current state of the Cowboys to a scene from Jurassic Park, calling it “dangerous” and unsustainable.
“I think Dallas is in danger of becoming Jurassic Park… the fence is broken…Dallas thinks they’re close; they think they’re a player away…This is Jurassic Park and the fence is broken, and the T-Rex is running wild. It’s only going to get worse,” Cowherd explained.

Cowherd‘s comments stem from his belief that the Cowboys are in a state of denial, clinging to the idea that they are just one key player away from returning to Super Bowl contention.
He pointed out that the team’s performance has been in decline for years, with this season’s disappointing 7-10 record being a culmination of deeper problems within the franchise.
Comparing Dallas to better-run teams
In addition to the Cowboys‘ internal struggles, Cowherd expressed concerns about their management.
He compared Dallas unfavorably to other teams such as the Detroit Lions, Philadelphia Eagles, Green Bay Packers, and the Los Angeles Rams-teams which he believes have superior rosters, front offices, and player development strategies.
Cowherd stressed that while Dallas might believe it’s just a few moves away from greatness, other teams have already built solid foundations for long-term success.
Despite Cowherd‘s critiques of the Cowboys, he did express some optimism regarding Jerry Jones. After firing Mike McCarthy, Jones has been actively seeking a new head coach, with rumors circulating that he reached out to Deion Sanders about the job.
However, many experts have questioned the fit, considering Jones‘ affinity for the spotlight and Sanders‘ larger-than-life personality that often dominates the media. Cowherd, though, believes that Jones’ evolving perspective might make this a realistic possibility.
“When you get older, you see the world differently; you think about your legacy and how you’re going to leave it for others,” Cowherd remarked.
