Cowboys Mailbag: What Does Starting Austin Change?

What Cowboys players, past or present, do you think kind of fall into this category as great players who never really got their due?

Is it my imagination or has the red-zone offense been better here recently? Any reason for that? What can they still do better?

It seems like Osa Odighizuwa is finally getting some recognition with Greg Olsen calling him one of the best defensive tackles in the game during last Sunday's broadcast. In what areas has he improved this season?

Do you think we are having more success with the run game simply because we are facing lower quality opponents? 

What would you like to see the Cowboys accomplish over these last four games? With an eye toward next season, are there any questions you think need to be answered?

For all the excitement and big plays the Cowboys' special teams have provided this season, I feel like there have been just as many bad ones. Why is that? 

At this point, Dowdle must be wondering what else he has to do to get the ball. Why won't the Cowboys stick with the run even in close games?

Seeing as how the Bengals have one of the best wide receiver combos in the NFL, how would you try to stop them?

The Cowboys defense has now totaled nine turnovers in their last five games. What happened? Did their approach change in any way? Can they keep this going against Joe Burrow and the Bengals?

Is there a role for Brock Hoffman once Zack Martin returns? Or, dare I say, is it time to make a permanent change?

It seems like about 95% of the Cowboys' plays start after the cadence, "Here we go!" Doesn't this give the defense a tremendous advantage? Why don't they mix this up?

Do you think Cooper Rush and the Cowboys should start opening up the offense more, like with more downfield throws? Or is it best to keep things as is, more reserved?
