All three Cowboys coordinators took the podium in Oxnard, and we found interesting points from each.
The Dallas Cowboys are now in the thick of training camp, and we have seen both sides of the ball take their turn at "winning" the day.
We have heard from Brian Schotteneheimer on what he's seen from his team over the past week, as well as Jerry Jones and players from both sides.
But we hadn't heard from the coordinators yet.
Well, now we have all three in Klayton Adams, Christian Parker, and Nick Sorensen, who took to the podium in Oxnard.
And here are three things that caught our eye.
Klayton loves GOTI:
We have heard the word being used around Oxnard, and we do know the Cowboys' offense does have the potential to be the "Greatest Offense There Is" in 2026.
But what does Adams think of the word?
"I think it's amazing, because, to me, it's just a standard that they set for themselves," Adams said. "It's something that's very easy for me that, if we're not having a great walkthrough, or we don't have a great practice, to pull that out and say, 'Guys, that's not what [GOTI] is.'"
But while Klayton likes the word, he made it known that if that is the standard the offense has for itself, they better adhere to it all the time.
"You better freaking act like every single second," he added. "You better hold yourself to that standard. And we can't be going to a walkthrough with one foot out the door, because it's an off day the next day. The foot needs to be on the floor of the car the entire time. And, so, I love it."
Christian Parker makes eyebrow-raising green dot statement:
We know that DeMarvion Overshown is the one who has the green dot for Parker's defense and could have it when the regular season rolls around.
He's been good in camp, getting the calls out and making sure the players know what they have to do.
But apparently, D-Mo isn't the only one who has the ability to communicate.
Parker stated that all linebackers have had the green dot this offseason.
"He's doing a good job manning the huddle and doing the things with the green dot, and other guys are as well," Parker said of Overshown. "At this period of time, every linebacker has the communicator in their helmet. It's just a matter of who's at that position and who we're giving it to on that bracket of plays.
"But D-Mo's doing a good job. He's flying around, he's accelerating his detail of the scheme, and understanding the offensive situations as well, so we're happy with his progress."
So it appears everyone is getting a chance to show what they can do as the leader of the defense, and even Caleb Downs stated on 105.3 The Fan that he can be the green dot as well if needed.
Dallas has options, folks.
Special teams making one thing the clear focus:
Given how bad the defense was last season, the performance of the special teams unit gets lost in the wash.
It wasn't good.
With KaVontae Turpin's fair catch calls and then choosing to return it, and then the costly penalties that when Turpin did break a big run, it got called back.
So, it is no surprise where Sorensen wants the biggest improvement.
"I think the main thing for us is just our return game, focusing on that," he said. "I think the big thing that showed up was penalties. We want to be better in the penalty aspect of it. And I think that's going to have a huge impact in our return game because we had some big returns that get called back, and those end up being huge, huge yard losses.
"So, I think it start, it goes back to those fundamentals."
Penalties were a huge issue for Dallas all season and with special teams shooting themselves in the foot time and time again, that can't happen in 2026.
And it appears Sorensen is making sure it doesn't.
