The Dallas Cowboys hope for elusive deep playoff run as questions loom on futures of head coach Mike McCarthy and quarterback Dak Prescott.
It's probably a deep playoff run or bust for coach Mike McCarthy, who is in the final year of his contract. The Cowboys haven't even reached an NFC championship game since winning the last of the franchise's five Super Bowl titles during the 1995 season. The wild-card loss at home to Green Bay last January was perhaps thein his 34 years owning the team. So McCarthy's three straight 12-5 playoff seasons don't mean much.
The return of Elliott probably isn't enough of a boost to the running game to give Dallas a complementary threat to its top-notch passing attack. Elliott figures to get plenty of work early as the Cowboys try to figure out how much juice is left in the 29-year-old who is third on the club's career rushing list from his first seven NFL seasons . There is promise in an offensive line that got much younger with Tyron Smith's switch to the New York Jets in free agency.
