Dallas Cowboys aim to end postseason drought in 2026

The Dallas Cowboys are looking to snap a two-year postseason drought in 2026 under head coach Brian Schottenheimer. After a disappointing season with a losing record, there is cautious optimism for improvement driven by a potential boost from new defensive coordinator Christian Parker. Experts suggest the Cowboys' ceiling is 10-7, while their floor is projected at 7-10, reflecting the uncertainty surrounding Schottenheimer’s leadership and Dak Prescott’s consistency. The team's ability to bounce back will depend largely on defensive improvements and Prescott’s performance, as they seek to reclaim a playoff spot after a significant downturn since their early 2020s success.
