When you look at the playoff defeats in the MM era, this team has struggled inside the trenches and couldn't match their opponents physicality.
Dak looked very similar to what Mahomes looked like two weeks ago against former 49er DC Vic Fangio. Couldn't run the football what so ever, line couldn't hold up against a strong front 4 and had to throw the football into tight windows with extra men in coverage. QB's were running for their live and had no where to throw the football.
Against Green Bay, it was the other side of the football. They played old schooled, physical run down your throats football against a small front that had a Safety playing MLB. They went with a ton of big personnel and the Cowboys just couldn't match up.
Cowboys have slowly tried to turn their personnel from more finesse to more physical with the last few drafts: Tyler Smith, Guyton, Beebe, Kneeland, Mazi.
We can see the new staff has made it a priority to fix their struggling rushing offense, let's hope they do the same on the defensive side of the football.
