The Dallas Cowboys were regarded as one of the league’s best all-around football teams during the 2023 NFL regular season because they could succeed on both sides of the ball, with Micah Parsons playing strong defense and Dak Prescott leading the offense.
Regretfully, the Cowboys struggled in the postseason even after securing the NFC second seed and appearing to be a serious contender for the Super Bowl title going into the NFL playoffs.
The Cowboys’ season ended much earlier than expected, and coaching staff changes were expected after the upstart Green Bay Packers, led by young quarterback Jordan Love, dominated them in the first round of the playoffs.
Dan Quinn, the defensive coordinator, made the decision to quit the team and take a position as head coach of the division rival Washington Commanders, despite the widespread belief that head coach Mike McCarthy was under pressure and that the team needed a new leader.
Due to Quinn’s significant departure, Jerry Jones and the team are looking for the next best person to lead this defense. According to ProFootballTalk, Ron Rivera and Mike Zimmer, two former head coaches, are interviewing for the position this week.
