Cowboys' Offseason Moves Boost Playoff Hopes

0:00On March 2nd, the Dallas Cowboys are ramping up their off-season moves as the draft and free agency near. Last year, their offense ranked among the league's best, but a struggling defense kept them from deeper playoff runs. ESPN analyst Dan Olofsky believes the Cowboys are just a few key additions away from true contention. He points out that grabbing two or three strong players on the edges and at linebacker could transform that unit quickly. In the NFC, the conference looks up for grabs, especially with teams like the Seattle Seahawks facing potential losses in free agency. That opens the door wider for Dallas to climb into the playoff mix. The Cowboys waste no time hiring Christian Parker as their new defensive coordinator to shore up that side of the ball. They also locked in wide receiver George Pickens with the franchise tag to keep their offense humming. With smart moves ahead, the Cowboys could surprise as legit threats next season. Turning early promise into real results.
