Jerry Jones has finally finished assembling the coaching staff of the Dallas Cowboys for the upcoming season. His latest move is key to help Dak Prescott after the massive contract extension the quarterback signed last year.

First, Jones let go of Mike McCarthy and named Brian Schottenheimer as the new head coach. Despite the market featuring names like Mike Vrabel, Ben Johnson, and Deion Sanders, the owner decided to promote a man from within the organization.

Then, with the goal of competing for the Super Bowl, Matt Eberflus was signed as defensive coordinator after his failure with the Bears. Now, the final step has been taken with the announcement of the long-awaited offensive coordinator.
