The Dallas Cowboys defense did their part on Sunday against Washington. It was awesome.
Through the first six games of the season the defense was mostly a punchline, and in the viewpoint of just about every person, was the reason that the Cowboys did not have a better record.
Unfortunately this was not hyperbole. Prior to Sunday the Cowboys were literally among the worst defenses in franchise history in many respects. Football fans know better than to overreact to one game, but it is hard to not be hopeful that maybe things have taken a turn (even a small one).
Do you believe the defense did indeed turn around from the due south direction they were headed? No one is claiming the turn was 180 degrees, but progress is progress.
If the Cowboys do start to stabilize a bit on defense then that will go a very long way towards the season’s objectives at large.
