Isaiah Stanback Says the Cowboys CAN'T Call a Championship the Standard

Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Isaiah Stanback joins Jeff Cavanaugh, Jesse Holley and Clarence Hill on the DLLS Cowboys Podcast to give his perspective on the Cowboys after getting an early look at the team in training camp.

Stanback breaks down what he's seeing from the "new-look Cowboys defense" explains why communication and confidence could be critical under defensive coordinator Christian Parker, and shares what he's looking for from Dallas as the defense tries to come together with so many new pieces.

But Stanback also delivers a fascinating take on the Cowboys' expectations. Does Dallas really have a "championship standard" right now? Stanback argues that the Cowboys need to focus on establishing success first — including building a **top-15 defense** to complement the team's offense and special teams — before calling a championship the standard.

He also weighs in on:

* CeeDee Lamb vs. George Pickens
* What George Pickens needs to prove in Dallas
* Jaydon Blue's potential Year 2 jump
* The importance of maturity for young NFL players
* What he's watching from the Cowboys' offensive line
* Why Dak Prescott is at his best with a strong running game
* Christian Parker's leadership and presence
* What the identity of the Cowboys' new defense could become
