So I just looked at our losses, with the exception of the Commanders, our losses came from mobile QBs.

Cam
Deshawn
Russel
Marriotta (well sorta..)

Pocket passers seemed to get owned. Just a thought.
 
Because we don't have a free safety. Mobile QBs but time and hurt Dallas downfield.

It's gotten better though.
 
Dallas has issues with big mobile tight ends and quarterbacks. Which is just like most of the league.
That's why I'm not drinking the koolaid just yet. I'm using the 2016 Seahawks as a frame of reference. They didn't have that problem.

Stafford owned the Cowboys defense and the Lions were a fumble away from winning that game.
 
We need to learn what a spy Linebacker role is

Jaylon should live shadowing the QB when we play those offenses
 
I'm safe in saying, this is a different defense even for 4 weeks ago. If you can't see that, take off your (I like to criticize Dallas) glasses, and you'll see it.

LVE shadowed Saints RB so it is definitely part of the game plan is some form or fashion.
 
That’s why teams like mobile QB’s
They create problems for defense

Statistically it is just as likely that those just happened to be the teams the Cowboys played during the time frame the Cowboys were not playing well.

The Cowboys are a very young team. Young teams tend to get better with game experience.

The Cowboys also lacked a #1 WR which is a bigger issue considering their lack of a legit #1 TE.

Having said that it's an interesting observation.

The Cowboys do play significantly different coverage in some games vs other games. A running QB could affect what coverage they play.
