The Cowboys will win but it won't be the reassuring type of victory.
Having said that, there is one thing we should expect on a weekly basis from such a team so young at critical positions. Barring additional injury at key positions, this team should improve.
In reality, there were several issues on this team going into the season, some resolved, some not. The two most prominent was inexperienced starters as a result of free agency losses and the need to bring in an entirely new defensive system and coaching staff.
The more this defense plays together, the more experienced and familiar they will become with each other and their new scheme.
The more this young offensive line plays together, the more cohesive and efficient they will become.
Then again, their greatest liability on offense last season remains the same. No, I'm not talking about Dak.
This offense is one-dimensional, the running game is tame to the point of being ignored. There is nobody on the RB squad that has demonstrated they are capable of gaining any more yardage than what the O-line can get them.
The Cowboys desperately need a boost here so they must consider rotating RB's in from the practice squad in the hopes of finding improvement.
