That hasn't happened since Rio. He seems to have corrected that. You can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs.
It wasn't a good week for the Quinnen Williams trade second-guessers...
The Packers lost.
The Cowboys won.
And Williams balled out.
Quinnen Williams leads all defensive tackles with nine tackles for a loss this year. Only edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. has more. Williams' career high is 12 during his All-Pro season in 2022.
Oddly enough, some of the team's most productive free agents have been their cheaper free agents. Contrary to popular belief, the Cowboys are actually pretty decent at this.
DT Otito Ogbanna, $2.75M
DT Jonathan Bullard, $2M
DT Elijah Garcia, $1.2M
RB Tyler Goodson $1.1M

Broderick Jones played just 9 snaps (all runs), but he helped spring some good runs, including a key 4th down conversion.
It was a good game for all the former Pittsburgh trade guys.
Joey Porter Jr. is better than DaRon Bland
Tyler Goodson is better than KaVontae Turpin
Brevyn Spann-Ford is better than Jake Ferguson
Joey Porter Jr. is $20 million cheaper
Tyler Goodson is $3.4 million cheaper
Brevyn Spann-Ford is $6.5 million cheaper
I love all four of the Cowboys defensive tackles. Quinnen Williams, Kenny Clark, Otito Ogbannia, and even Elijah Garcia. They are all playing well. And when they employ the Rhino package (four DTs) nothing is getting past them.
Ryan Flournoy only had four targets, but he was super-efficient. He caught all four of them for 70 yards and just seemed to be there when Dak needed him.
Dak is still throwing into coverage too much. He had two passes on slants that he is lucky weren’t picked off and returned for TDs. The slants have been his bread and butter at times, but he must do a better job reading the coverage. Cornerbacks have been sitting on these plays.
Dak Prescott is so fortunate to have two amazing body-control/ball-tracking WRs. Those first two touchdown catches were not easy.
Javonte Williams showed a lot of patience before hitting his holes. He also did a much better job of jump-cutting, eluding defenders, and churning those legs. Give this guy a fighting chance to run the ball, and he's quite an effective asset in the backfield.
Snap counts (offense) last night...
Jake Ferguson = 56%
Brevyn Spann-Ford = 53%
The passing of the torch that everyone wants appears to be happening slowly.
The Fangio/Parker defenses did not have a good showing Monday night. Neither created much pressure on the QB or had success stopping the run. The only difference is that one went against an ensemble of misfit players, while the other went against All-Pros.
I don’t mind settling for a field goal when you get inside the 10-yard line. It happens. Nobody's perfect. I just don’t want it to happen because of poor playcalling or bad clock management. And it shouldn't keep happening.
