What happened: Adam Schefter pointed to Todd Archer's look at what the Dallas Cowboys can expect from head coach Brian Schottenheimer in his second season on the job. The piece frames the questions facing Schottenheimer as Dallas moves through the 2026 offseason.

Why it matters: A head coach's second year often sets the tone for whether a staff's approach takes hold, and the Cowboys enter 2026 looking to translate offseason work into results. The discussion lands as Schottenheimer continues meeting with media during the offseason program.

What to watch: Watch how the Cowboys' offseason program and minicamp work carries into training camp, and whether Schottenheimer's Year 2 plan shows up once Dallas opens the 2026 slate.
