Matt Eberflus returns to Dallas as the new defensive coordinator for the Cowboys, stepping into the role after a challenging stint as head coach of the Chicago Bears. Eberflus aims to revamp the Cowboys' defense by leveraging standout talents like Micah Parsons, Trevon Diggs, and DaRon Bland. He emphasizes aggressive play designed to generate turnovers while addressing the team's deficiencies against the run, echoing past successes under former coordinator Rod Marinelli.

Eberflus' strategy revolves around maximizing Parsons' unique abilities, aiming to utilize him predominantly as a pass rusher. Meanwhile, he expresses excitement about working with the All-Pro cornerback duo of Diggs and Bland, despite Diggs' recovery from knee surgery. Eberflus' commitment to restoring the defense's former glory highlights the Cowboys’ ambitious goals for the upcoming season.
