Cowboys Mailbag:What are going to be the best or most intriguing position battles this offseason?

Last year, I was surprised Dan Quinn decided to come back. But this year, after the season we just had on defense, I'm truly shocked. Why do you think Quinn wants to be here more than getting back to a head coach?

Do you think Tyler Smith should've been a finalist based off what he did playing left tackle and guard back and forth all year?

Do you think the competition committee will look into the type of tackle that sidelined Tony Pollard this past Sunday?

When Tony Pollard went down with an injury, why did the coaching staff abandon the "next man up" philosophy and essentially quit using the two-running-back formation in the game plan?

Who on the 49ers offense is your biggest threat to take over the game?  Deebo Samuel maybe Christian McCaffrey? Brock Purdy? Or is it the overall physicality that the 49ers bring?

Thanks to the NFL's scheduling, the 49ers, who played on Saturday, will have two full days of extra rest than the Cowboys after Monday night's game. How big of an advantage is all this for the 49ers?

Do you think Brett Maher can mentally find his mojo again before the 49ers game?

If Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is prone to release the ball in two to three seconds, wouldn't it suit the Cowboys to play press-man coverage to disturb the receivers' routes and give our defensive line time to get their hands on Brady?

What can the Cowboys do to help the cornerback opposite of Trevon Diggs without opening themselves up to big plays elsewhere?

Would it have been better if he had played more linebacker to take advantage of his quickness and keep him fresh?

Given the injuries and shuffling along the offensive line, do you think the Cowboys can improve enough up front to compete against the defensive lines they'll face in the playoffs?

Why is our first-down offense consistently so predictable with running the ball? Why not sprinkle in some quick passes to at least make second and thirds downs easier to convert?
