Dallas Cowboys upgrading army with sights on NFL crown

While mediocre play at key positions kept them from Super Bowl glory, the Dallas Cowboys are actively filling neglected holes.

Even after the painful one-and-done playoff fail, many Dallas Cowboys fans still believe their unlucky team was Super Bowl worthy.

Atlanta would’ve presented another stiff challenge for the defense, yet the Falcons’ own defense (25.4 ppg) was the softest of all playoff teams.

Either way, the Cowboys let one slip away and what could’ve been simply wasn’t.

Throughout the season, I continually noticed three key positions where mediocrity kept them from league domination.

1. Imposing pass rusher (defensive end)

2. Dominating middle linebacker

3. Electric kick returner

Sure there were other spots that lagged here and there, but the starters were capable of championship play if complimented by the additions above.

The good news is Dallas has identified the holes and is already busy making repairs.
