In his tenure with the Cowboys, Quinn has crafted a secret defensive sauce, relying on a concoction of key ingredients. One crucial element in this gridiron potion is the art of turnovers. Unveiling his alchemical skills, Quinn has turned the Cowboys into a turnover-forcing machine. However, the stats reveal a chink in the armor: in games where turnovers don’t flow like a well-executed play, the Cowboys stand at 3-9. While this might be par for the course among contenders.
