Snap-for-snap, the 2020 Cowboys had the second-youngest offense in the NFL

Your 2020 Cowboys were the second-youngest offense in the league, according to Football Outsiders, who weighted every player’s age by the number of snaps played to arrive at the snap-weighted age for each team in 2020.

They Giants are seventh, the Eagles are 12th, and Washington is 19th - in a young man’s game, you don’t want to be the team with all the old dudes.

“But wait,” say the nattering nabobs of negativism, “that’s just a fake stat! All those injuries artificially lowered the average age.”

Well... maybe.

Injuries didn’t affect the wide receiver corps, nor did they affect the running backs.
