We all know of the Cowboys futility for the past 25-26 years. It all started when Jerry and Jimmy couldn’t get along and Jimmy left. Jerry said he could win with 500 other coaches and hired the idiot Switzer and Jerry claimed victory. Yeah, that didn’t last long. Having, Troy, Michael, Emmitt, and that awesome offensive line doesn’t happen very often. Now so many years later here we are with arguably an even better offense than what we had in the early 90’s. It’s a different league now with the emphasis on the passing game. With a healthy QB our offense has been #1 in the NFL for the last 2 years. Injuries to the offensive line and QB sunk our 2020 season. Can’t win in the NFL with a mediocre offense and a terrible defense. We had both when Tyron, Collins, Fred and eventually Dak went down. The bottom line is that you need both a great offense AND a great defense to win a Super Bowl. Brady didn’t win the SB this year. His defense did. Brady only threw for 201 yards. But he had 3 td’s. So you need both a good QB, offensive line but more importantly you need a better than average defense. We haven’t had that for many, many years. If Jerry doesn’t do something about the defense this offseason then Brady at his prime couldn’t win here.
Top ten on both sides of the ball: every Cowboys SB champ, and the last 8 SB champs.
This notion that you can just load up on offense and drag a bad defense to a title is fantasy. That only works against bad teams.
