The Dallas Cowboys have the same goals for the 2024 season that they have had since Mike McCarthy became head coach: to win the Super Bowl.
McCarthy has unfortunately led the Cowboys to an early postseason exit each year despite having a successful regular season.
Although there are many reasons to be optimistic about the forthcoming season, one revelation that has surfaced may once more portend dire consequences for Dallas.
Concerning Report Emerges About The Dallas Cowboys for 2024, Per NFL Analysis’s Kenneth Teape:
There may not be a team under more pressure to perform in 2024 than the Dallas Cowboys. There could be some major changes on the horizon if they don’t get over the hump and end their NFC Championship Game drought.
Attention this offseason has been on quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. Both are seeking contract extensions, but there hasn’t been much traction on a deal with either player.
Defensively, the team needs to overcome the loss of defensive coordinator Dan Quinn. He took the head coaching job with the Washington Commanders, the first coach under new owner Josh Harris.
Despite those distractions and obstacles, there is a lot of optimism surrounding the Dallas Cowboys. Based on odds shared by bookmakers, they are a strong playoff contender in the NFC with odds of -260 to make the postseason.
Their odds of winning the NFC East for a second straight year are at +150. The Philadelphia Eagles look to be their only competition for that crown.
Despite that, NFL writer James Dator believes that the Dallas Cowboys are one of the more overrated teams entering training camp this year.
“Dallas were hamstrung in free agency by the salary cap, which caused them to make no appreciable upgrades to their roster — while poor cap management meant the team also lost Dorance Armstrong, Tyler Biadasz, Tony Pollard, and Tyron Smith (among others).
There is no planet in which the Cowboys are a better team today than they were a year ago, yet money has them on-par with the Eagles in the division.
No team is poised for a bigger drop than Dallas in 2024. This is the franchise on the verge of needing a full retooling to adjust for the league moving forward.
Teape raises a valid argument. During the off-season, Dallas took very little action to improve. Their 2023 and 2024 rosters are strikingly similar. In professional sports, “running it back” is rarely effective, even for Super Bowl winners.
It will be intriguing to watch Dallas’ performance this year.
