The Dallas Cowboys have significantly overhauled their coaches, and one coaching addition will benefit two players on the defense the most.

The Dallas Cowboys seem to have zeroed in on their offensive coordinator. The Cowboys front office, particularly Stephen Jones, has given clues as to who the next offensive coordinator will be. I have come to realize Stephen is not nearly as good at hiding his intentions with absurd and crazy words and phrases as his father. …
The Dallas Cowboys need an offensive and defensive coordinator, and they have their feelers out searching for the next big coach.
