"Despite showing some improvement last week against the Washington Commanders, the Dallas Cowboys defense is still dead last in the league in total defense, yielding 401.6 yards per game. They also currently rank last in the league in passing yards per game (260.3) and are also currently 30th in the league in both rushing yards allowed per game (141.3) and points allowed per game (29.4)."
"It's encouraging we saw Matt Eberflus' defensive unit show signs of improvement last week against the Commanders though. They played much more man-to-man coverage last week and it seemed to pay off. Not only did they have plenty more stops to get the ball back in the hands of the offense, but the also had four QB sacks and two turnovers, including DaRon Bland's sixth pick-six of his career."
"Under Sean Payton's tutelage this year, the Broncos offense is a Top 15 unit nearly every category. They currently rank 11th in the league in yards per game (347), sixth in rushing yards per game (131.9), 15th in passing yards per game (215.1), and 17th in points per game (17.3). This is a good, not great, offense who could help better determine exactly where Dallas' defense stands right now, for better or worse."
The Dallas Cowboys defense ranks last in total defense (401.6 yards per game), last in passing yards allowed (260.3), 30th in rushing yards allowed (141.3), and 30th in points allowed (29.4). The unit showed signs of improvement against the Washington Commanders, using more man-to-man coverage, generating four sacks and two turnovers, including a DaRon Bland pick-six. The Cowboys now face the Denver Broncos, whose offense under Sean Payton ranks 11th in yards per game, sixth in rushing, 15th in passing, and 17th in points. J.K. Dobbins and Courtland Sutton present notable challenges to Dallas' defense.
