Which defenders will benefit most from the change at DC?
My theory is that the Cowboys scheme was one of the biggest reasons why Woods didn’t quite reach his Pro Bowl expectations in 2019. Under the previous staff, Dallas opted to play a vast majority of their defensive snaps in a single-high structure, as the Cowboys played Cover 3 at an extremely high clip. This made the Dallas defense predictable, which allowed opposing QBs to anticipate the location of the Cowboys defenders based on the likely coverage, making it easy for opposing QBs to consistently target the voids in Dallas’ Cover 3.
