Quinnen Williams trade confirms painful Matt Eberflus reality for Cowboys fans

It doesn't take a football savant to realize that Matt Eberflus has not gotten the job done as defensive coordinator of the Dallas Cowboys. It took Eberlfus far too long to dial up more five-man rushes, mix in some man coverage, and make long overdue personnel changes.

With that said, it's fair to wonder if any DC would thrive with the personnel that Eberflus got saddled with this season. There are holes all over the field, which prompted the front office to trade for Quinnen Williams, one of the five best defensive tackles in the NFL, as well as veteran linebacker Logan Wilson, a clear upgrade over Dallas' current options.
