Well, 8th-lowest points allowed, considered
by most to be the Cowboys strength thus
far in the season. However, the sportswriter
in the following article is heavy on the glass
half empty point-of-view regarding the defen-
sive secondary, especially Anthony Brown:

The article recommends benching him, but
doesn't say who should start in his place.

mostly full thus far this season, the

Sacks .......... 13 ....... NFL Rank 1st

Pressures .... 49 ...... NFL Rank 1st
(24 vs Giants Monday night was
the most by any team this season)

Pressure% ... 40% ... NFL Rank 2nd

Well, I criticized Anthony for having a defen-
sive holding penalty vs the Coms, but I must
say that whatever Anthony's shortcomings
have been thus far in 2022, the Cowboys
overall defensive backfield contributions
have been excellent, as shown in the follow-
ing defensive stats:
https://groups.google.com/g/alt.sports.football.pro.dallas-cowboys/c/5Sva13QtBmE

2nd-best in fewest passing TDs allowed
2nd-best in lowest net yards gained per pass attempt allowed
3rd-best in fewest points allowed
3rd-best in lowest passer-rating allowed
6th-best in fewest passing yards allowed
6th-best in lowest% of drives ending in opponent score
7th-best in fewest yards allowed
Tied for 9th-best in most interceptions

Well, I found one more defensive success,
& I might as well add a 2nd & 3rd defensive
success stat as one could argue that great
DB play contributes significantly to these
3 defensive stats although admittedly it
isn't often or typically involved in reducing ...

.... rushing TDs allowed, great coverage con-
tributes to sacks, & great coverage is often
involved in preventing 3rd down conversions:

Best in fewest rushing TDs allowed
2nd-best in most sacks
Tied for 8th-best in lowest 3rd down conversion% allowed
