Jerry Jones says Cowboys’ defensive play over final 3 games will be ‘big criteria’ in evaluating Matt Eberflus
Jerry Jones is at a crossroads. The longtime Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager is desperate for better defensive play, but he also understands the importance of continuity at the defensive coordinator position.Even though Matt Eberflus has struggled mightily in his first season on the job — the Cowboys are allowing 30 points per game, the second most in the league at the moment — moving on from him would mean a fourth DC in four seasons.

2025 NFL MVP Stock Watch: Bo Nix has Broncos Streaking, Scrambling Into MVP Convo
Winners of 10 one-score games this season and riding an 11-game winning streak, it’s time to acknowledge the Denver Broncos are not the luckiest team in the NFL. Holding a 12-2 record, tops in the NFL, the Broncos are the best. And while the Broncos have one of the nastiest defenses in the NFL, one of the main reasons for Denver’s success has been the clutch performance of second-year quarterback Bo Nix. The Oregon product’s raw numbers aren't among the best in the league, but he's played well when it mattered the most, as he did against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. He threw for 302 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions, posting a season-high 134.7 passer rating in the 34-26 victory. Nix's 11 straight wins ties Lamar Jackson (2019), Peyton Manning (1999) and Dan Marino (1984) for the longest win […]
