"Let's start with one of the most frustrating part of the Cowboys' season: the run defense. After the front office traded away Micah Parsons earlier in the year, the expectation was that the defense would shift its identity to a more balanced, gap-disciplined unit. With Kenny Clark anchoring the middle, fans hoped the bleeding would stop. Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case. Dallas currently ranks 29th in the league, giving up a staggering 143.0 rushing yards per game."
"That's not just bad, it's embarrassing for a team that claims to have Super Bowl aspirations. The addition of Quinnen Williams should help immensely, as he's one of the NFL's most dominant run defenders and brings a physical edge that's been sorely missing. Pairing him with Logan Wilson, a proven tackling machine at linebacker, could finally give this unit some stability."

On offense, Javonte Williams provides toughness and late-game wear-down ability, yet the backfield lacks the explosive speed needed to keep defenses honest.
