Sturm - The Dallas Defense Finally Has Their War Daddy

[Kwyn]

Sturm does a deep dive on Quennin today. His typical detailed look with film analysis and commentary.

Suffice to say, he’s extremely high on him

How good is Quinnen as we head into 2026? Very.

Debating the qualities of a player is something we all do in the offseason to pass the time. Boy, he is good, yes. But, is he better than this other guy? Is he better than Jeffery Simmons or Chris Jones or Dexter Lawrence?

Williams is one of only two defensive tackles ranking in the NFL’s top 10 in both pass-rush win rate AND run-stop win rate. This is the gold standard. Elite interior linemen typically excel in one dimension, but Williams is exceptional at both. He’s not a specialist; he’s a complete player.
51 total pressures proves consistent disruptive impact. His 19.6% pass rush win rate as a Cowboy (second in the league) shows elite frequency of getting to the QB. This of course multiplies when surrounded by more pieces of quality.
But, the top run defending is the rare air. His impact on the ground game is elite-tier and this definitely matters when facing the run-heavy attacks. You earn the right to rush the passer.

Man, it will be nice to see a Dline that can actually challenge & disrupt offenses. Been needed for so long. I'm like Charlie Brown, keep worry something is going to snatch it away at the last second.

Q is so damn good.

Where Quinnen is in the top tier is how balanced his game is. He isnt the best pass rushing DT in the NFL, but he is probably top 5. As a run stopper, he is probably the best 3T in the NFL. The package makes him one of the top 3 DT's in the NFL. I have over both Jones and Simmons. Both are better rushers, but much less effective against the run. Both are fairly middling there. Both Lawrence and Carter really slipped last year

We do ....... but he plays safety.

 

[Havic]

What’s Lawrence doing? I haven’t heard anything and that’s probably not a good sign

 

[fivetwos]

I think that with QW along with Barham and Caleb gives them a player on each level of defense.

Yes I’m getting ahead of myself but that’s how it is. I’m going down that road. See yall there.

 

[Coogiguy03]

Q is so damn good.

His name is good let's see him be great

 

[Cowboys5217]

Now just explain how we are going to sack opposing QBs enough times to make a difference in the win/loss column, because it looks like another losing season coming.

HiM bEiNg tHe bEsT DT iS lAuGhAbLe

don't forget that garbage you said.

 

[88sAndHeartbreak]

If anybody makes a petition to ban the term "War Daddy" I'd be the first to sign.

 

[DandyDon52]

I hate the term "War Daddy" sounds childish.

 

[erod]

What’s Lawrence doing? I haven’t heard anything and that’s probably not a good sign

Rotational guy with potential big upside in 2-3 years.

He was not dominant in college. Needs to develop.

 

[805BoysInBlue]

I been wanting him on this team for a long long time! Happy hes finally here! Cant wait for his jersey to go on sale!

 

[RonWashington]

I’ve really been impressed in his run stuffing ability since he was traded . Dallas hasn’t had that in years .

 

[dagreat1_87]

Really wish Jerry never said "war daddy"

 

[shabazz]

Lord.....please dont let Q have a career with no playoff success.

 

[Mikexike]

this man will retire a cowboy, i hope we can get him a ring some day.

 

[cowboyec]

FINALLY we have a real honest to goodness def tackle.
