Dallas Cowboys Land AFC Superstar In Blockbuster Trade Proposal That Would Give Them League’s No. 1 Defense.
The Dallas Cowboys are in desperate need of a splash to give hope to their fan base.
Owner Jerry Jones has made it clear the Cowboys are going “all-in” for 2024 and decided to retain Mike McCarthy for one more season to see if he can get the talented roster past the first round in the playoffs and possibly reach the Super Bowl expectations Jones expects.
The problem? The Cowboys brass has only added one player in free agency, has lost several key starters on both sides of the ball and has yet to make moves to extend their three top star players, Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons.
After a fantastic regular season where Dallas won the NFC East with a (12-5) record which gave them home field advantage in the first round of the playoffs, the Cowboys were dominated by a young, surging Green Bay Packers team.
Suddenly one of the league’s top defenses couldn’t stop the run and allowed first-year starting QB Jordan Love to look like Patrick Mahomes, while Dak Prescott and the offense sputtered which was rare for 2023.
Because of his track record, Cowboys fans are accustomed to blaming Dak Prescott, who hasn’t been able to get the hump in the postseason since taking over as the team’s franchise QB.
There was even a portion of the fan base who wanted the team to move on from Prescott and attempt to plug in Trey Lance, the former first-round selection who the 49ers traded a fortune to move up and select.
Ultimately Lance never worked out in San Francisco but they got lucky hitting on Brock Purdy. Last season he was the third-string QB for the Dallas Cowboys.
Prescott was in the discussion for NFL MVP this season and closed out arguably the best regular season of his career. The Cowboys entered the wildcard round matchup as two-score favorites over the Green. Bay Packers, who have a first-year starting QB and the youngest roster in the NFL.
