Name a better defensive trio

Renfro, Adderly, and Howley.......Three HOFers played an integral part in the Cowboys first two SB appearences.

Thurman, Walls, and Downs......combined for 27 INT's in one season. Walls and Downs were in their rookie seasons as undrafted free agents. Walls picked up two additional INT's in the NFC championship game

White, Martin, and Harris.....In 1977 White and Martin combined for 32 sacks and SB co-MVP. Meanwhile HOFer Cliff Harris was a 1st team All Pro along with Martin.

Haley, Woodsen and Sanders....Two HOFers and another that should be there...they represent a whole lot of SB rings.

Did you notice a common thread? In all four cases the Cowboys went deep into the playoffs, three trios helped the Cowboys win at least one SB.

The very basic requirement for "best defensive trio" is at least one NFC championship game. Otherwise, what was the point?
 
Johnny Cochran, F Lee Bailey, and Robert Shapiro…….

49rs and Rams

2022 Dallas was 9th in total yards, 21st in rushing yds; 8th in passing yds; 5th in points allowed

So no we do not look like the best D in the league
The Rams? What? They have 1 good player lol

Volume stats don't matter.
 
Diggs is scared to tackle and Gilmore is 33 years old. Parsons is a god. Stop your list there.
 
I think you mean the 49ers and Eagles. The Rams probably have the worst defense in the league.
Yeah, Rams are decimated.

They won't be bottom 5-10 in the league in defense though, let alone worst.
Lower middle, I'd say

Guess we'll see.
 
49ers and Steelers for sure have trios better
 
Its the offseason, but here is always all we need to know as Cowboys fans to gain a big smile for the day...
MP is only 24 years old and he is ours...... :flagwave: :p :flagwave: :p :flagwave: :p :flagwave: :p
 
LOL.

Dude had 11 sacks as an interior DL, generally wrecked things inside. Dude is a legit top level DT.
I disagree. The exact reason why the Eagles let him go is why he’s not great….he’s a good pass rusher but there’s a reason why their interior got ran up the gut like ours did and we didn’t have anyone as good as Hargraves. He’s not a great player.
