The Dallas Cowboys got their first win of the 2025 season in dramatic fashion, pulling off a 40-37 overtime thriller against the New York Giants. While Brandon Aubrey’s clutch field goals stole the headlines, one of the biggest takeaways from the first two weeks is clear: Dallas has finally fixed its broken run game.

Last year, the Cowboys ranked near the bottom of the NFL in rushing, leaning too heavily on an aging Ezekiel Elliott and misusing Rico Dowdle. But the addition of Javonte Williams has completely changed the dynamic. With power, vision, and consistency, Williams is looking like the true RB1 the Cowboys have desperately needed—already surpassing last season’s touchdown pace just two weeks into 2025.

With the offense heating up and new faces stepping into the spotlight, the Cowboys might just be on track to become one of the NFL’s most dangerous units. But can they keep it rolling against the Bears in Week 3?
