The fun Wilson is referring to isn't a postgame party at the SugarHouse Casino. It's forcing opposing offenses into third-and-longs and then teeing off on the quarterback.
"You dictate what happens on third down by what happens on first and second down,'' Wilson said. "If we can stop the run on first and second down, we'll have more [pass-rush] opportunities on third down.''
Stopping the run will be particularly essential Sunday night when the 4-4 Eagles host Ezekiel Elliott and the 3-5 Cowboys at the Linc.
Elliott is the straw that stirs the Cowboys' offensive drink, as diluted as that drink has been this season.
