Everyone keeps saying front office but as long as WE keep the money flowing nothing will ever change regardless of who’s calling the shots.

so for me it’s a smarter fanbase.

If the football gods came to you and told you that you could choose one aspect of the team to improve significantly, but the rest of the team would remain at status quo, what would you choose. Could be the performance of a single player or a particular unit etc. What one single improvement would help the team the most this season?

I could go a couple different ways on this but I'm settling on a much improved run defense.
The offensive line.

Defensive line.

if the cowboys had a dominant DL with everything else they had in place. They would e legit Super Bowl contenders. Even with the other weaknesses.
Sooooooooo many opportunities to pick up great DL players, Jerry obviously does not want to pay $ to improve that aspect. Soooooooo here we go again this season.

Curtains blocking the sun at the end of the Stadium......I mean what moron builds a stadium east/west where the sun effects so many games where players can't see the ball in the air because of the Sun shining in their eyes...

and or a consistent Running game

Any team serious about winning would pick O line or D line or QB. Our QB makes 40 million so you have to assume we are set there. O line or D line is the answer. If you asked Jerry he would 100% without questions answer WR.

Offensive line. Hands down.

Improved to what point?

the easiest answer is elite qb play

The most wrong answer is elite QB.

Wouldnt matter to be honest. Going from the 7th best QB to the 4th best wont make much difference. Elite QB's dont play elite with poor blocking. They also cant help your run blocking.

Show up against the better competition. This has been a tendency for several years that they beat up the lesser teams and struggle against the contenders.

Culture change that hits Barnum and Bailey so they in turn make it exude throughout the organization down to the players. Similar to the Jimmy Johnson years and Parcells years.

The one aspect I want improved significantly is ---- Superbowl/Postseason winning percentage

I don't know about "hands down".

Our inability to stop the run got us killed against the Rams, even with a top quality o-line, and played a big role last season against the 49's.

WRONG! You bring in an elite QB and changes the whole complexion of the offense. Defenses can no longer say if we stop Zeke we win. It's going to open up the running game because of the RESPECT for the passing game.
