Remember the use of helmet stickers by college and HS teams to highlight big (often underrated) plays that had a big influence on the outcome of a game? Ohio State was one of the first I saw using it, placing a “Buckeye” sticker on helmets. Many other college and hs teams did it too although you don’t see as many teams doing it these days as we used to.

So what if we awarded imaginary helmet stickers to Cowboys players for their big, yet underrated plays each week?

Here are my helmet stickers for Sunday’s game vs the pats:

  • Sean McKeon- the rarely used TE had two big moments in one play yesterday when he threw the block that sprung Devantae Turpin yesterday on a long run, then hustled downfield and recovered Turpin’s fumble inside the red zone. Helmet sticker!✅
  • Jalen Tolbert- 4 receptions for 54 yards on 18 snaps. And he made a big play on STs with a tackle on punt coverage inside the 10 just before the strip sack TD in the 2nd qtr that blew it open. Helmet sticker ✅
  • Dante Fowler- his relentless pass rush/strip sack led to LVE ‘s scoop and score TD. Huge play. Helmet Sticker ✅
  • Chauncey Golston- the backup DL scored on a two point conversion making a nice reception and run following the LVE fumble return TD. Helmet sicker. ✅
Many times it’s not the star players that are the keys to winning. Yesterday showed these 4 guys as examples of players who came up big in moments some too quickly forgotten. It takes every player contributing.

Any other helmet stickers you would award?

Bobhaze - you get seven CZ stickers from me for bringing up that longtime football tradition that SHOULD NEVER GO AWAY.

He doesn't wear a helmet so you'd have to stick it to his skinny forehead but Bones Fassel deserves one for the special teams performance yesterday. Kicking game, punting game, coverage tackles, faux extra points, Dallas won every aspect of that phase.

DaRon Bland. It's not just the two interceptions. Every one knew he'd get tested with the loss of Diggs, and this is how he responds??? You go young man, that's solid stuff.

Jake the snake Ferguson. He looked bigger than everyone out there and more wide open too. I like his demeanor at that position.

Those stickers used to be huge at the HS and college level.
Nowadays there's the millennial = Gen X\Y\Z replacements:
• Lunchpail - Virginia Tech
• Turnover Chain - Miami
• Spiked Shoulder Pads - Georgia
• Turnover Throne - Colorado
AND many others - bestowed on players DURING A GAME IN PROGRESS - instead of waiting until the outcome has been decided- then awarding the honor in the locker room a day after the game.

I don’t mind all those things. It gets kids to bond as teammates over their accomplishments. But hey, we can issue our own “helmet stickers” here every week, right, lol.

Aubry. As his kicks are spot on down the middle.

Bland for 2 picks, one a pick 6.

They aren't really underrated plays, but are huge in success of the win.

The real question is of course, are the stickers little stars or little rowdy's?
