Jerry Jones has been said to love flashiness. His recent flirtations with Deion Sanders are enough proof of that. But if he wants to see any real success, he could look to give Marcus Freeman the full reins of the Dallas Cowboys.

And yes, that includes making him de-facto DC. Mike Zimmer caused such a catastrophic defensive regression after three years of dominance under Dan Quinn that it was a surprise that he did not join Mike McCarthy on the unemployment line after the 2024 season ended.

Should Freeman receive the job, then he will have a fantastic group to work with: Dak Prescott (when he returns), CeeDee Lamb, Micah Parsons, Trevon Diggs and DaRon Bland, to name a few.
