Cowboys news: Four reasons for the recent improvement of the Cowboys defense

The Cowboys defense has improved and there are a few reasons why.

Offense making life easier. The Cowboys offense’s impact shouldn’t be overlooked either. The offense has exploded to the tune of 30-plus points in each game of the win streak. Dallas’ 31.3 offensive points per game in the past three weeks ranks seventh in the NFL during that span. You don’t need to be a genius to figure out that it’s much easier to play defense when the offense is racking up 30-plus points per game. Not only does that take pressure off the defense, but it forces opponents to attack differently as well.
