Cowboys Odds to Win Super Bowl

After a decade of failing to take the Dallas Cowboys further than the Divisional Round, Jason Garrett is out of the Metroplex. Garrett only had one losing season during his tenure in Dallas, but his continued shortcomings in the postseason eventually led to Jerry Jones dumping the former backup quarterback.

Mike McCarthy is the new sheriff in town, and he does have postseason success on his resume. Green Bay went to the NFC Championship Game four times under McCarthy, and the Packers won Super Bowl XLV over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jones is hopeful that McCarthy can finally lead the Cowboys back to the Super Bowl this season with so much talent on offense.

Dak Prescott has yet to sign a long-term contract with the Cowboys. Prescott and Dallas have been trying to work out a deal for more than a year now, but the two sides are still considerably apart in terms of their numbers. The star quarterback has yet to sign his franchise tender and doesn’t plan on doing so, and this is something the front office must address before the start of the 2020 season.

Prescott isn’t one of the game’s elite quarterbacks, but he is in the next tier. He completed over 65 percent of his passes last season and threw 30 touchdowns compared to just 11 interceptions, and he threw for nearly 5,000 yards. He has shined since the Cowboys trade for Amari Cooper, and this offense is now even scarier with three legitimate receiving threats.

Michael Gallup has developed into a fine complementary receiver, and the Cowboys jumped at the chance to draft Oklahoma star CeeDee Lamb too. Lamb was the odds-on favorite to be the first wide receiver selected in the 2020 NFL Draft, so Dallas was giddy about landing him in the back half of the first round. That will give Prescott even more options in 2020.

The Cowboys have one of the game’s most complete running backs in Ezekiel Elliott too. While you shouldn’t overpay for running backs in this league, Elliott has been very reliable during his four seasons in the NFL, leading the league in rushing yards per game in each of his first three seasons. He is a solid pass-catcher out of the backfield too, giving Prescott an option to check down when needed.

This front seven could be pretty good if the veteran defensive tackles play well. Dallas acquired Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe this offseason, but both players are coming off down years with Carolina. The Panthers had the league’s worst run defense in 2019, conceding 5.2 YPC, so that’s a major concern for this unit.

Demarcus Lawrence is one of the game’s premier pass rushers, and the linebacking corps is solid. Jaylon Smith overcame an injury that many thought would ruin his career to become one of the best middle linebackers in the game, and Sean Lee and Leighton Vander Esch have been good too.

The secondary is a concern, as it usually is with the Cowboys. Dallas doesn’t have reliable cornerbacks in Chidobe Awuzie, Anthony Brown, and Jourdan Lewis, so second-round draft pick Trevon Diggs could start immediately. The safeties are a bit better with veteran Ha Ha Clinton-Dix leading the way, but this unit is a concern.
