The Dallas Cowboys have a lot to look forward to next season in regards to their defense. Now that they have added defensive end Robert Quinn and finally reached a long term deal with Demarcus Lawrence, the unit is beginning to look very solid.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones spoke about the defense headlined by the two stud defensive ends and loves where the team stands going into the 2019 season.
“With pass rushers, you can’t get enough of them, but the point is you don’t ever get a chance to get enough of them. You don’t ever get a chance to. So he gave us a chance to do that. It was a unique opportunity. Some of these things, you just have to be ready to grab the train when it comes by. And he does that, and not so much about the questions about Gregory, but that’s logical. It does make all the sense in the world, but if you could have all three of those guys on any given Sunday. . . At the end of the day, I don’t know that there’s a more important thing that pressure on the quarterback.”
The Cowboys defense now has two promising linebackers in Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Esch as well as Lawrence and Quinn. Dallas now faces the reality of performing to expectations they have not seen for quite some time.
While the team has typically remained solid over the years, it's been mostly due to the offensive contributions. Dallas now has a defense to match their offense, and there's plenty of reasons why Jones is excited about his team next season.
