CeeDee Lamb Reveals Cowboys Season Goal: 'I Want a Ring!'

The Dallas Cowboys have always had lofty expectations, and this season, CeeDee Lamb knows exactly what he wants ... a new piece of silverware.

The Dallas Cowboys are firmly in the Super Bowl conversation this season, and with a roster that is built to win now, expectations are naturally high for what the franchise can achieve.

With the Cowboys not having gotten to an NFC Championship game in over three decades, what would constitute a successful season?

Making the playoffs? Winning a playoff game? For receiver CeeDee Lamb, it is far more.

“A successful year is winning the Super Bowl,” Lamb said. “Regardless of what my numbers look like, obviously we need 1,000+ [yards], but I’m not too fond on that - I want a ring.”

Lamb is coming off a career-best season that saw him total 1,359 yards and nine touchdowns on 107 receptions. With the offense struggling at times outside of Lamb's excellence, many inside the building knew some reinforcements were needed. That came in the form of Brandin Cooks, who was acquired via trade from the Houston Texans. 

Everything about Cooks has been positive as his willingness to impart his knowledge on the playing group, in particular Jalen Tolbert, has been noticed, but also what he has been doing on the practice field. And Lamb echoed that sentiment about what Cooks has done since arriving.

“Brandin’s a phenomenal player,” Lamb said. “Every time I watch him on film, he’s always zipping through the screen. I almost laugh every time because it surprises me every single time how fast he is. Then you got MG [Michael Gallup] as well, and he can take the top off [a defense].”

With Gallup stating that the offensive firepower is "ridiculous," it appears that Lamb has the same thought, and looking at coach Mike McCarthy's unit on paper, it is easy to see why.

Training camp continues to be a battle of wills as the offense and defense both try and better each other. That kind of competition, or "iron sharpening iron," will benefit both units in the long run.

And it might just be that type of improvement on both sides of the ball that sees the Cowboys end their NFC Championship drought and gets CeeDee his ring.
