Outlook: Coach Carl Klann's Cowboys might only have seven starters back, but the offense should run smoothly with the return of Landry Klann at QB. After passing for nearly 1,500 yards last season and tossing thirteen touchdowns, Kann is joined by Fonzie Lopez at RB and Fernando Morales at WR. Play in the trenches on both sides of the ball should be good with Jason Nichols leading the effort on defense. There is serious talent on the Cowboy roster, a top-tier finish in the league seems likely.
