What happened: Ed Werder pointed to the Dallas Cowboys' returning veterans and 11-year starting quarterback in arguing that an experienced play-caller should solve offensive problems during games. The critique followed comments from owner Jerry Jones on 105.3 The Fan expressing confidence in Brian Schottenheimer's ability to correct two weeks of offensive struggles.

Why it matters: Dallas sits at 2-4 and holds the 12th seed in the NFC after dropping two straight games, including a 13-23 loss at the Green Bay Packers. With the front office still intending to buy ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline, immediate offensive corrections are needed to keep the roster in postseason contention.

What to watch: Dallas hosts the Arizona Cardinals next as Schottenheimer looks to stabilize the offense before the trade deadline.
