Cowboys News: Why Antwaun Woods is the key to continued success for the Dallas defense

The defensive tackle can be the key to the Dallas defense preforming up to their ability.

Because of how Dallas rotates its defensive line, Woods was on the field for six of Los Angeles’ 14 runs. He may have had just six snaps against the run, but he was utterly dominant and nearly unblockable, securing four stops, three of which were at or behind the line of scrimmage.

It was obvious Los Angeles was specifically looking to attack Woods on zone runs because he has had a tough time maintaining his gap against the horizontal stretch created by those runs.
