But Jones does not believe that the Cowboys are far from making an extended postseason run.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve got a team that I think has got a top future, as far as next year\u2019s concerned,\u201d Jones said. \u201cStarting with the offense, starting with that as we stand here tonight. And I think we\u2019ve got the bones of a heck of a defense out there as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd so, I think that as we do things that are directed toward making us better, period, no matter who we do it with, as we do those things, we\u2019re starting [from a] real good spot. And I like what we\u2019ve done with our cap. We\u2019re able to spend money if we need to. And we\u2019ll be able to draft with the picks we got. So, I can give you all kinds of reasons why we can change up what we\u2019re doing out here tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Cowboys have a 4,000-yard passer (Dak Prescott<\/a>), a 1,000-yard running back (Javonte Williams<\/a>) and two 1,000-yard receivers (CeeDee Lamb<\/a>, George Pickens<\/a>) for just the second time in franchise history. The other time it happened came in 2019, with Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott<\/a>, Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup<\/a>, and the Cowboys also missed the playoffs.<\/p>\n Jones feels good about the interior of his defensive line, with tackles Quinnen Williams<\/a>, who did not play against the Chargers because of a neck issue, Kenny Clark<\/a> and Osa Odighizuwa<\/a>. Jones sees promise in linebacker DeMarvion Overshown<\/a>, who suffered a concussion in the first half Sunday, and rookie edge rusher Donovan Ezeiruaku<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"But Jones does not believe that the Cowboys are far from making an extended postseason run. \u201cWe\u2019ve got…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":97047,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,932,104,103],"class_list":{"0":"post-97046","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-dallas","9":"tag-dallas-cowboys-news","10":"tag-dallas-headlines","11":"tag-dallas-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=97046"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97046\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/97047"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=97046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=97046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
