It was fantasy football for Cowboys fans on Wednesday as everyone seemed to have an opinion on what Jerry Jones should do regarding Sean Payton. From trying to predict which other teams might make a run at the coach to making a case for why Jones shouldn’t wait around to find out, the team’s silence when it comes to squashing speculation- or even publicly pledging allegiance to Mike McCarthy- only means the story will continue to grow.
Elsewhere, Dan Quinn may be a step closer to getting the call, and Cowboys assistant Joe Whitt is adding to his dance card, too. We’re looking at the best free agents on the Dallas roster, naming the best opposing players the Cowboys saw in 2021, and handing out final grades to the much-improved defense. All that, plus questioning whether Dak Prescott has the same stuff we’re seeing in the top playoff teams… and taking an up-close look at what it’s all about each season: Super Bowl rings. Here’s the News and Notes.
