This is the worst season for the Dallas Cowboys since 2020, when they went 6-10 without making the playoffs.  Over the course of the 2021-2023 seasons, they won at least 12 regular season games each year.  While it was an impressive stretch, it didn’t result in a Super Bowl appearance.

It is possible that Dallas players are taking things less seriously now that the team is 3-7 and out of playoff contention

However, one former Dallas legend thinks it is time to move on from everyone, including the owner.
