"The Dallas Cowboys are on a bye before prepping for the a Monday night game against the Las Vegas Raiders, a game Dallas is currently favored by 3.5 points according to FanDuel. An NFL bye week is a good time to look back at what a team has accomplished through the first part of their season, and around the Cowboys it has been mostly disappointment. Their 3-5-1 record is uninspiring, and the belief that they can make a playoff push is diminishing rapidly."
"The easiest, and most common, explanation for the Cowboys current position is that their defense is wasting a potent offense (although the offense has also sputtered recently). It's hard to argue against that as the defense is statistically among the very worst this season in the NFL, and in franchise history also ranks very poorly. So who is to blame? We wanted to know earlier this week who among management is most at fault."
"To little surprise, Jerry Jones won the vote, although Eberflus at least made it interesting (65% to 32%). Jones is not a popular figure among the fanbase. He has tried to resurrect this season, and provide some help going forward, by trading for Quinnen Williams and Logan Wilson. Is the Cowboys fanbase buying it? Not really, as only 23% of fans think the franchise is headed in the right direction."
The Dallas Cowboys are on a bye before facing the Las Vegas Raiders in a Monday night game for which they are favored by 3.5 points. The team holds a 3-5-1 record and has seen playoff hopes diminish. The defense ranks among the worst in the NFL and in franchise history, undermining an otherwise potent offense that has also sputtered recently. A fan vote assigned most blame to owner Jerry Jones, though many also fault Matt Eberflus and head coach Brian Schottenheimer. Jones traded for Quinnen Williams and Logan Wilson, yet only 23% of fans believe the franchise is headed in the right direction.
