"The Cowboys loss to the Cardinals also revealed work to be done on offense too. It put a team under a first-year head coach in Brian Schottenheimer who's prioritized culture in a spotlight where their best players made unforced errors and the overall accountability in a lackluster 27-17 loss felt subpar. The Cowboys looked lost, and the Cardinals looked better than they had all season, snapping a five-game losing streak in emphatic fashion."
"When it comes to the latter, a move that consisted of trading Mazi Smith, a 2026 second-round pick, and one of their two 2017 first-round picks to the Jets for Williams, the Cowboys finally landed a player they've had interest in for a long time to shake up the defensive tackle depth chart yet again. A position group where Dallas would notoriously scrape the bottom of the barrel in free agency and maybe spend a day three pick on,"
The 3-5-1 Dallas Cowboys face mounting concern after back-to-back noncompetitive losses to the Broncos and Cardinals that shifted the 2025 season's momentum. The organization acted at the trade deadline, acquiring LB Logan Wilson and DT Quinnen Williams to address persistent defensive struggles. Dallas sent Mazi Smith, a 2026 second-round pick, and a 2017 first-round pick to the Jets for Williams. First-year head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who prioritized culture, saw key players commit unforced errors and accountability issues in a 27-17 loss. The Cardinals snapped a five-game skid and outplayed the Cowboys. The moves aim to shake up the defensive tackle depth chart and improve performance.
