Dallas Cowboys are determined to improve their defense this offseason, focusing on ball security and takeaways. After a disappointing season where they allowed a franchise-record 35 passing touchdowns and finished with only 12 takeaways, the club is looking to make significant changes. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer highlighted the need for consistency and emphasized the importance of taking the ball away more often. The Cowboys' turnover differential of minus-9 last season was among the worst in the league, and they are aware that such numbers will not lead to playoff success. With the addition of first-round draft picks like Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence, the Cowboys are hoping to bolster their defensive lineup. Observations from OTA practices will reveal how these players are utilized, whether in nickel packages or as outside linebackers. The Cowboys are committed to turning their fortunes around and reclaiming their defensive prowess in the upcoming season.
