Cowboys' DeMarcus Ware Predicts 'Super Bowls Like Hotcakes' with 1 Dallas Change

Cowboys legend DeMarcus Ware says that the current team is good enough to win Super Bowls, but says turnovers and coaching hold them back.

Former Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Ware, in the spotlight this week due to his Hall of Fame candidacy, knows his football, so when he talks, people listen. ... maybe especially when he's serving up "hot takes.''

Or ... "hotcakes.''

​"They have every single thing that they need to win a championship," Ware said on CBS Sports Radio with Damon Amendolara, highlighting one major reason why Dallas has failed to hoist a Lombardi trophy since the mid-'90's. "If you don't turn the football over, you win games, and the games that they do turn the football over, they don't win.

"If we can eliminate that, those rings would be coming in like hotcakes."

Ware's formula seems simple enough. But with Dak Prescott being the league's joint leader in interceptions with 15 and then throwing two more against the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round, the Cowboys were served not "hotcakes,'' but rather, another playoff exit.

Ware also believes Mike McCarthy's coaching staff could use an adjustment.

"It starts with the coaching," Ware said. "On offense, if we threw an interception in practice, we started the practice all over. So, if you're 50 percent in practice and you throw an interception, you gotta start back on the first play again. You don't want to go start back over. 

"So, I think it starts at the top of what's important this year, and then it will trickle down to the players."

​Turnovers were a blight on the Cowboys and are what ultimately sent them packing in Santa Clara. But does Dallas have the building blocks capable of winning a Super Bowl?

Demarcus Ware is serving up his truth. ... hot off the griddle.
