The Dallas Cowboys are back to work on Wednesday, preparing for their next matchup, a road trip to the Carolinas. Facing off against the Panthers is normally looked at as a favorable opportunity, but they’ve been fiesty as of late, and present a unique challenge with a familiar face in RB Rico Dowdle.
Dallas isn’t missing Dowdle in the least, though their dominance in the run game is certainly an interesting shift from just last year. How have they become one of the best in the league? Coaching, of course, but also marrying scheme to personnel. The Cowboys have shown to be a resilient roster, as they continue to have to adjust to a litany of early-season injuries.
