In Depth 2014: Dallas Cowboys
Few teams had a better opportunity to capture a division last year than Dallas in the NFC East. Washington and the New York Giants fell off the table and Philadelphia, with a new coach and system, got off to a slow start.
But the injury bug hit and a once proud defense put up some of the ugliest numbers in team history, dooming the team to another 8-8 season and keeping the Cowboys out of the playoffs.
This offseason, Owner Jerry Jones has again shaken up the staff of assistant coaches. But hampered by salary cap issues, Dallas has been relatively quiet, staying out of the running in most of the high profile free agency races. So can this team make the necessary fixes to become a contender again in the NFC? Steven Mullenax, editor and head writer for The Landry Hat, shares his thoughts. Here’s what he had to say.
