Last season, the Dallas Cowboys‘ secondary was arguably one of the worst in the league. They allowed many big plays through the air and got beat almost every time. This unit ranked 25th in opponent’s quarterback rating (100.4), 26th in yards allowed per completion (11.1), and gave up 11 40+ yard passing plays, which ranked tied for 29th in the league.
Simply put, this group wasn’t very solid in 2020. However, this season could be very different for America’s Team.
With how terrible this defense was a season ago, the Cowboys likely knew that changes needed to be made.
