We should all probably have a discussion about how flawed that defensive philosophy was.
yes the defense focused on keeping opposing scoring down (every defense does)
Yet wasn’t focused on creating turnovers and had zero qualms about allowing the opposing offense to have free yards up and down the field, where they constantly flipped field position and consistently put the cowboys offense in situations where they had to drive the ball 80 yards against good defenses to score.
Cowboys had the worst field position in the league between our brickhanded defense and the consensus worst special teams in the league. Competent special teams alone probably nets the Cowboys two additional wins.
