Our Reading

This one felt recognizable early.

The Cowboys’ defense has been a problem all season, and they’re trying to fix it with a big trade.

Gary’s been a steady performer for the Packers, but the Cowboys are hoping he can make a bigger impact.

It’s not like they didn’t try to get someone else – they missed out on Maxx Crosby, remember.

Now they’re hoping Gary can be the difference-maker they need.

Original Observation: The Cowboys are still trying to find their identity on defense, and Gary is just the latest addition to a long list of attempts to get it right.
