Welcome to the Daily Blitz by DSP Media in partnership with CowboysSI.com.

How can it get better for the Cowboys? First of all, this isn’t the same team as it was in 2020. Several additions to the defensive line and linebacker position should help. Secondly, the “mastermind” behind last season’s defense, Mike Nolan, is gone, replaced by Dan Quinn.

Maybe the biggest question is, “Can it actually get any worse?” The defensive line should be better, the linebackers should be better, and the defensive ends should be better. We think.
Or maybe there is another answer: Is it possible for the offense to help the defense? Let’s discuss!
