The Dallas Cowboys struggled defensively during Sunday’s 31-14 loss to Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer acknowledged that the defensive output was not pretty, and hinted that he and defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus could look to simplify their strategy.

“Yeah, it wasn’t, and that’s coaching. That starts with us, and we got to do a better job, simplify some things maybe. And the one thing we knew going into this game is they would challenge us with some of their motions and shifts, and they did that. I thought [Bears quarterback] Caleb [Williams] played very, very well. Threw the ball really well, made some plays off point. But, again, got to tighten the coverage down for sure,” Schottenheimer told Lawrence Dow of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
