Tyrus Wheat, Mazi Smith, DeMarvion, Liafau, Oruwariye, Caelan Carson, even Markeese Bell are all guys who bring maximum effort, energy and drive to the Cowboys' defense. With recent injuries, we've been able to appreciate their talent and contributions more acutely. Don't you guys feel like this defense is much better than it was WK 2?

Love these vibes and yes the defense has improved throughout the year. Honestly, I would rather see Juanyeh and Bell as our starting safeties. Wilson, Hooker are ok but I feel the combo of Bell/Thomas would make more plays
Overshown, Liafau, Carson I am thrilled with. All of them should get better and better.
Mazi had a good game vs the Giants but I think the jury is still out on him. I seem to be more patient with his development than many cowboys fans I speak to, but the time is coming where he needs to start making an impact even 1/2 the size of Osa. I’m rooting for him.
Oruwariye is the classic “expect nothing, be pleasantly surprised” signing. Happy with him so far but ready for bland to take his spot. Maybe he can continue to develop a bit and be a special teamer.
Wheat I haven’t considered. Could be a good or bad thing that I don’t hear his name called too much.
And bell was one of my favorite players last year but I might be crazy… I haven’t seen or heard his name all year? Was he a Quinn guy or what?
The young dudes are hungry. You love to see it
Liafau is gonna be a monster.
I told my family not to worry about our injuries, we drafted youth for a reason, now ii’s their time to shine 😊🤗 I love watching rookies play! Like college ball all over again 😁😁
How did Mazi do vs Pittsburg?
I really wish Kneeland was included here, that’s a costly injury
Juanyeh thomas is a dawg too
Oruwariye isn’t that young tho. I think he was drafted in 18 or 19. Not that he’s old …
