The Cowboys escaped New York with a win over the Giants but they\u2019re losing the long hill battle after losing their two best defensive pieces. Parsons\u2019 injury is an ankle sprain, but Lawrence will miss ample time.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas already has questions about their defense after struggling this season with the run against opposing offenses. After losing Dorance Armstrong and Dante Fowler Jr., the team responded by signing Eric Kendricks. There was some head-scratching already about whether or not the team would continue looking for replacements. However, Lawrence is in the final year of his contract so that means he probably won\u2019t come back next season especially if the team sees he can\u2019t stay healthy.<\/p>\n<p>Clark is a 31-year-old veteran and three-time Pro Bowler who is past his prime but he could be a reliable edge rusher. After being let go by the Chiefs in 2022, the veteran was bouncing around the Broncos and Seahawks playing just 178 snaps last season. He\u2019s probably never getting back to elite form but the edge rusher should have plenty in the tank to offer the troubles of the Dallas defense. The Cowboys have\u00a0Carl Lawson to turn to\u00a0but no one knows what he could do since he hasn\u2019t been able to play a snap this season.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-24\">\n<div id=\"lwos_incontent_1\" align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x250\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/15184186,22512265771\/lwos_incontent_1_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Lawson will have large shoes to fill but that should motivate Dallas to get some extra veteran insurance to help him. The Cowboys have one of the worst defenses this season with a depleting secondary. The Ravens and Panthers may be on the veteran\u2019s radar.<\/p>\n<h2>Ravens, Panthers May Fight Cowboys Over Super Bowl Champion Frank Clark<\/h2>\n<h3>More Baltimore Firepower<\/h3>\n<p>The Ravens still arguably have an above-average defense despite losing\u00a0Jadeveon Clowney\u00a0and Patrick Queen this past offseason. Roquan Smith is still on the roster but that leaves David Ojabo and\u00a0Odafe Oweh\u00a0for big shoes to fill alongside him. It isn\u2019t the best linebacker group like the Ray Lewis days but the Ravens couldn\u2019t afford to spend a high-price player in this past offseason. However, Clark is still looking for a job and he would probably be open to signing with the team late in-season to possibly win one more ring before he retires.<\/p>\n<p>No one should expect the Ravens to be big-time buyers in this year\u2019s trade deadline. What might make sense is a veteran free agent signing that has experience on their resume ready to step up. Clark could be their man starting and helping Ojabo and Oweh. Trenton Simpson could learn for a year before him and the Ravens could always elevate him for another time.<\/p>\n<h3>Revival in Carolina<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s safe to say the Panthers\u2019 chances of reaching a postseason are over. After\u00a0losing\u00a0Derrick Brown\u00a0and Shaq Thompson, the defense is on life support looking for a change. They\u2019ll probably tank this year but if they want to boost their chances, they should sign a pair of veterans to at least reach a wild card. Quarterback Andy Dalton is nothing but a bridge player but if the offense doesn\u2019t have any left, then relying on their defense might be best.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-50\"><\/div>\n<p>There\u2019s something teams do best when they have a depleting offense, they depend on defenses winning championships. The Panthers don\u2019t have anything to lose per se this year so they might as well construct a powerhouse defense. It may be hard to do that with Jaycee Horn as the lone star in the secondary but it\u2019s worth a try. Jadeveon Clowney is already on the roster, so why not team him up with Clark as the two-set reliable veteran pack?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e77e5b0 elementor-author-box--avatar-yes elementor-author-box--name-yes elementor-author-box--biography-yes elementor-author-box--link-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-author-box\" data-id=\"e77e5b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"author-box.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<div class=\"elementor-author-box\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ravens and Panthers could fight for two-time Super Bowl Champion free agent, Frank Clark over the Cowboys.
