Cowboys news: Fixing the Cowboys run defense is a high priority

The Cowboys defensive success will hinge on the improvement of their run defense.

FRISCO, Texas – The Cowboys had their share of problems all over the defense in 2021, but the biggest issue was stopping the run.

They ranked 31st against the run last year and the schedule seems rather loaded with running backs again this year.

The Cowboys will see the likes of Christian McCaffrey, Saquon Barkley, Dalvin Cook, Alvin Kamara and Josh Jacobs – to name a few.

So how does it get better for the Cowboys? Our staff writers try to figure it out.
