Cowboys’ Defense Revival Could Be Game-Changer | Dallas Cowboys News

Dallas Cowboys are turning the page in 2026 with a bold defensive overhaul, bringing in stars like Rashan Gary and Von Miller while trusting young coach Christian Parker to lead the charge. With a mostly intact offense and new linemen, they’ve jumped to 14 in early power rankings — and analysts believe fixing their historically bad defense could catapult them into playoff contention. After surrendering over 500 points last year, the hope is real: if Parker can build a respectable pass rush and stop the run, this team could surprise everyone. Their early slate against the Giants and Commanders — both rebuilding — offers a perfect chance to start strong and build momentum before facing tougher tests. The pressure’s on, but the pieces are finally clicking. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
