Cowboys vs. Steelers: 3 things to watch for in Hall of Fame game
#3. New Defensive Alignment
With Dan Quinn now stepping in as the new defensive coordinator, the Cowboys will be looking at a mixture of 4-3 and 3-4 defensive fronts. It will be interesting to see who plays where on the defense.
I am not sure if we will see first-round pick, Micah Parsons, in this game. But if we do, watching where he lines up will be telling. He can be used as both an edge rusher or an outside linebacker. Having versatility like that will make him a crucial part of the defense all year.
Ultimately, we just want to see the defense get stops. After everything we endured last year, even in a meaningless pre-season game, seeing the defense get stops will be a sight for sore eyes.
Come Thursday night the Dallas Cowboys will be back on our TVs. And we should all be excited for the 2021 season.
