The offensive liner has confidence in the Dallas template and is optimistic that the team will win the NFL title
Oxnard – Pro Bowl's guard of the Dallas Cowboys, Tyler Smithdo not hesitate to express your expectations For the 2025 season prior to the start of the training camp this week.
“Super Bowl champions“, said Tyler Smith on the arrival of the team to Oxnard, California, after its flight from Dallas. “That is always the expectation“.
Los Cowboys They have not played a Super Bowl Since 1995. They have not reached a game for the NFC championship in the last 30 years, the longest drought of the National Conference after the Washington Commanders and the Detroit Lions achieved it in the last two years. The Cowboys They ended with a 7-10 record last year and will have a rookie coach, Brian Schottenheimer, replacing Mike McCarthy.
“I think it's a realistic goal, yes,” he said Tyler Smith.
Because?
“Why We can win a Super Bowl. Why not? Why can't we win? “He said.” Do you think it's unrealistic? “
Before 2024, the Cowboys They ended with a 12-5 record in three consecutive seasons, but lost against the San Francisco 49ers (twice) and the Green Bay Packers in the postseason.
Los Cowboys They acquired George Pickens from the Pittsburgh Steelers in a exchange to reinforce the group along with the open receiver of the Pro Bowl, Ceedee Lamb. Dallas He added to the supporters Kenneth Murray Jr. and Jack Sanborn, the Defensive Towle Solomon Thomas and the Dante Fowler Jr. The Cowboys They also acquired the corner Kaiir Elam, former recruit of the first round of the Buffalo Bills Draft.
Dallas It will also feature a healthy Dak Prescott, who lost nine games last year due to an injury to the Corva tendon, but which already received a medical discharge to participate completely in the activities in the training camp. When Prescott has played more than half of the team's games, Cowboys They have reached the playoffs in five of seven years.
“I think we build a large offensive nucleus; the addition of George and all other key pieces,” he said Tyler Smith. “I think that by recruiting (the Tyler Guard) Booker (in the first round), it will be an exceptional player to reinforce the front line. And we have many players throughout the squad, but these are some of those who are key pieces of what we will do this year.
Perhaps the key piece is the Micah Parsons CagaMaiscals, who is entering the last year of his rookie contract and seeks an extension that probably turns it into the best paid player in the NFL in a position other than Quarterback. There has been no recent dialogue between both parties. Parsons can take the team from the team to California, but it does not have to officially appear until Monday for the start of the training camp.
Parsons said during the June mini -family that he would attend the camp, but did not indicate whether to train. The owner and general manager of the CowboysJerry Jones, will offer his press conference on Monday. The Parsons contract and the team's commitment to the Super Bowl They will probably be priority issues.
