For so long it has felt like the Dallas Cowboys offensive line has been the best unit on the team. Clearly that reputation has been challenged in recent years, but generally speaking throughout the era that we are in they have held the top spot.
Three years ago when we were coming off of the 2018 season (the last in which this team won a playoff game) it felt like linebacker might be readying to take the mantle from the offensive line on the heels of Leighton Vander Esch’s rookie season and Jaylon Smith’s emergence. As you are fully aware, that was a rather short-lived ride.
