Fans called for Matt Eberflus' job after the Week 6 loss, but the Cowboys are preaching patience. They'll get several key playmakers back very soon.

Jones: “Guys, we’re worried about getting to work, going to work this week, and getting better each week, so that we can be more consistent and execute. We feel like, as Coach Schottenheimer said well, we’ve got good personnel, and I think we’re going to evolve into a good defense. We just have to continue to go to work.”

Trevon Diggs expresses frustration over Matt Eberflus' defense and its lack of identity after a disappointing loss to the Panthers.

Williams is still an unknown after just 22 starts, but there are indicators he’s on his way up, and perhaps the Bears have found the coach-quarterback connection that has eluded them for so long.

Ben Johnson is an agent of change. It’s been about 11 months since Matt Eberflus was fired. It’s been 9 months since a broken locker room that didn’t believe in each other or the coaching staff, held their exit interviews searching for answers. That answer was Ben Johnson.

Matt Eberflus is a damn good football coach," Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said of his defensive coordinator.

The Cowboys rank 32nd in total defense, allowing 411.7 yards per game, and 31st in scoring, allowing 30.7 points per game.

There is growing buzz in Dallas about firing ex Chicago Bears' head coach Matt Eberflus after his defense allowed 30 points in a loss this week.
