"The Cowboys have one game left to play in the regular season, and no decisions have officially been made, but it sure feels like Matt Eberflus will be departing the staff after just one year as defensive coordinator. Not only has Jerry Jones publicly hinted at it, but his recent comments on Eberflus not playing Logan Wilson suggest a growing frustration."
"It's a strange and saddening development for many reasons. Eberflus has always had a strong track record on defense, routinely producing top 10 defenses in Indianapolis. Even as the Bears head coach, Eberflus often leaned on strong defensive performances as his offenses languished in mediocrity. Eberflus had many failures as a head coach, but the defense was very, very low on the list of problems in Chicago."
The Cowboys face one remaining regular-season game while decisions about Matt Eberflus's future remain unresolved, yet his departure feels likely amid visible frustration. Jerry Jones's public hints and comments about benching Logan Wilson underscore organizational dissatisfaction. Eberflus previously produced top-10 defenses in Indianapolis and relied on defensive strength even during a struggling tenure with the Bears. The Micah Parsons trade disrupted offseason planning, as Eberflus built the scheme expecting Parsons to anchor the pass rush. A last-minute schematic adjustment a week before the season contributed to inconsistent pressure and exposed coverage issues, taxing any coordinator's ability to deliver consistent results.
