Cowboys Wire

It’s time for the first Mock Offseason projection for 2025. Despite winning four of their last six games, the Dallas Cowboys are in trouble as a franchise. After three years of strong regular season performances followed by disappointing playoff outings, the damn broke on the regular season. Not only did the franchise exit the gate with a thud, but the relative injury luck the team has enjoyed as deteriorated with disgusting results. Already, two key members of the defense are going to miss a significant portion of next year. LB DeMarvion Overshown and CB Trevon Diggs, who both missed all or most of 2023, are going to miss all or most of 2025. The injuries are a mask, though. This team was broken to begin with, even when relatively healthy, and that’s why fans should hope Jerry Jones doesn’t make the mistake of retaining head coach Mike McCarthy. McCarthy’s tenure was on its last legs because they have been unable to overcome their nerves in the playoffs. The team fighting like crazy even though the season has long been over doesn’t erase those shortcomings.
