What a difference a year makes. One season after finishing 13-3 and winning the NFC East for the second time in three years, the Dallas Cowboys finally ran out of time. The club finished 9-7 and in second place in the division to the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. Now Jason Garrett’ club looks to get back into the playoffs after a troubling campaign marred by numerous situations.

The Cowboys got off to a slow start in free agency but have now added numerous new faces. Should be know what to expect from this team this fall?

Of course, one of the team’s other key pickups was former Jaguars’ wide receiver Allen Hurns. Which mean it will be very interesting when the Cowboys host Jacksonville this season.
