CeeDee Lamb believes the 2025 version of the Dallas Cowboys offense is the best he's been a part of in his six-year career.
"This one is the best one I've been on, and I've been on some great ones," Lamb said, via the team's official website. "It's just the way that we can move around these pieces, these players, and everybody everywhere. We can line up faster than any. It's tough."
The 2021 squad, which finished the season No. 1 in points scored and yards, while winning the NFC East with Lamb, Amari Cooper, Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard, etc., as weapons for Dak Prescott, might have some bones to pick with Lamb.
Through seven games in 2025, the Cowboys lead the NFL in yards per game (390.6) and rank second in the NFL in points per game (31.7, behind only Indianapolis' 33.1). If Prescott & Co. continue to gobble up yards, Brian Schottenheimer would be the first first-year head coach to lead the No. 1 total offense since Sean Payton with the Saints in 2006 (led NFL with 391.5 total YPG).
When Lamb is on the field, he and George Pickens form a dynamite duo who can win at every level. Pickens has proven his boundary prowess and is the perfect pairing with Lamb. In all three games he's played and finished, Lamb has generated 110-plus receiving yards.
The wideout said that he's never seen Prescott play better than he has to open the season.
"I swear he's going to continue to do that," Lamb said. "Again, it's only Week 7, still got plenty more to go, so much more work to do. We've got to better as an offense, there's some meat on the bone we left out there and I feel like we can get better.
"All the critics that was going on, you don't hear too much going on now. Now they're just waiting on something, that's just how it is. For him, I know it's tough. Just being the quarterback of this franchise is a big burden, but there's a lot of people quiet now, so I guess it's pretty good."
Prescott and Lamb will need to continue to stack yards, given their struggling defense -- ranked 32nd in yards allowed. The only team in the Super Bowl era to finish first in total offense and last in total defense was the 1985 Chargers (finished 8-8, missed playoffs).
Sunday's matchup against the fourth-ranked Broncos' scoring defense (18.1 PPG) will be a litmus test for the Cowboys. A win would get Dallas over .500 and keep them in the hunt heading toward Halloween. If the offense is slowed by the Broncos -- particularly the pass rush -- it could be a long day in Denver.
