Coming into the 2019 season, the Dallas Cowboys were thought to be one of the NFL’s best defenses. So far this season, especially lately, the Cowboys are nowhere near that. The Dallas defensive woes start with the run game. In the past two weeks, the Cowboys have failed to consistently shut down the run game.
Against the Vikings, you could make the excuse that running back Dalvin Cook is one of the leagues best rushers. But against the Lions, there is no way former Cowboy Bo Scarbrough and backup quarterback Jeff Driskel should be able to put up solid rushing yards against a “good” defense.
