Dallas Cowboys defensive stats through 4 games

[morasp]

Team wise, as expected with all the injuries in the secondary the passing yards took a hit after the Texans game
242.5 yards/game ranked 21st tied with the Panthers and just ahead of the Broncos. the Rams are ranked first with 154 yards/game allowed.

The rushing yards improved but we are still ranked 31st.
150 yards/game right behind the Saints. The Falcons are ranked first with 48 yards/game allowed.

Vonn Miller .........MIA
Maybe time to retire him .......... permanently

He may be washed up.

However, it seemed to me that they brought him in for a specific role and circumstance. For obvious passing situations with a lead. And thus far, there haven’t been too many opportunities where Dallas had a significant lead, forcing their opponents to be one dimensional.

Slow starting offense doesn't help....at all

Not getting a single TD against the nfls 16th ranked defense exactly the same type of garbage we've seen when the defense is actually not getting slaughtered.

Yes, they finally found their way but against a good defense they may not be able to hit that switch.

We've seen that play out before

Ummmm, correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think this is very good.
