Dez, Zeke and the Cowboys have a choice: Improve from their failures or continue to spin their wheels

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- Monday morning, after earning the Most Valuable Player trophy for Super Bowl LII and before flying to Orlando to fist-bump Mickey, Nick Foles spoke of a longer journey.

The veteran quarterback wrestled with walking away from the sport 19 months ago. A brief stint in Kansas City rekindled his enthusiasm. Now, Foles finds himself on top of the world, the backup quarterback who did the unthinkable in taking down Tom Brady to deliver the city of Philadelphia its first Lombardi Trophy.

His message is an instructive one for Dez Bryant, Ezekiel Elliot, Cole Beasley, Terrance Williams and any other Cowboys player who is in the mood to listen to an archrival.
