The Dallas Cowboys have made it through the first four games of the NFL season, and at 3-1, are in better shape than most of us expected. But Marshall Faulk wants to remind us that you can never stand pat in the NFL. Here is this week's GMC Playbook question.
The Cowboys have already made some bold and decisive moves this season. A couple that spring to mind are signing Rolando McClain and going all in on the running game. So far, things are working out pretty well. But there is a lot of football to play yet, and you always want to be taking steps to make things better.
On the field, there really isn't a lot that needs to be changed at this point. Tony Romo looks to be returning to the top of his game. DeMarco Murray is simply in full beast mode. Dez Bryant is still doing Dez things, including helping pave the way for Murray.The defense, while still very much a work in progress, is at least showing signs that it can provide enough resistance to the other team to help the offense stay ahead on the scoreboard. And special teams seem to be holding up their end of the bargain quite well.
So what bold, even daring move could the team make? Well, at the coaching level, nothing comes immediately to mind. There are certainly no big, splashy personnel moves that come to mind, especially for a team that has a bit over $5 million in cap space. The plan in all three phases of the game seems pretty solid and not in need of anything major.
By process of elimination, that takes us to the owner and general manager, Jerry Jones. Here is a man who has never shied away from the bold and decisive move. And recently, there was word that he may be considering something that fits this concept almost perfectly.
