It really feels like the Cowboys are purposely getting worse this season.
They ended the season with a disastrous playoff performance, and all they've done since then is let guys walk in free agency without replacing them.
The Cowboys are likely going to be bad. The only thing going for them is playing in a bad division.

Why does anyone need to buy the jersey when they can just go into their closet?

and yet Dak and CeeDee will still muster up 10 wins
Taking Quinn from Dallas could be huge.

Is that the worst running back room in the league?
Insane they didn't grab a singular back in the draft.

For f***ing what? Zeke is ass now, he can probably be a good blocking back but he ain’t turning back the clock to 2016.
Why didn’t Dallas draft a running back is the question.

As stated before, I believe Jerruh has considered all the tactical maneuvers available for this corps and the potential off-field disaster looming for Dak(it could be worse than fellow QB Deshaun Watson) and he decided that it isn't worth chasing something you can't get either way. "All in" was mere PR/lawyering so people who read the clippings don't pick out their real path and direction for this offseason.
Zeke is likely back just for an appreciation of the past and leadership to transfer to a new generation of Cowboys, which may not have a living Jerry Jones running it any more by the time they are competitive. It also allows Jerruh to keep it harmonious with Zeke going forward.

Wear and tear to the body, he was 21 back in 2016 and he rode tons of millage.
Then he got paid when he was clearly slowing down, which cause tons of NFL GM's not in fully invest in a long term running back.

Some of it was Zeke himself. He developed a gut, meaning he wasn't preparing post-contract like he did pre-contract.

He had a lot mileage on him coming out of Ohio State as well. In his 2 years as a starter he pretty much had 4,000 rushing yards.

Bad? No, they still have too many of the key ingredients remaining to suck and should still make the playoffs with 10-12 wins. But the offseason activity has killed any chance of a deep run being possible.

They’ll likely make the playoffs but the race for WC spots won’t be a joke with
Lions/Packers
Bears
Vikings
Buccs
Dallas
Rams/SF
There is no reason to be concerned about a NFC South runner-up or the Vikings finishing above them. Odds are in their favor to make it easily even in the market. The Cowboys will still run up the score in games they should easily win and will probably split their tougher games this year (less on the road compared to last year). Come playoffs it'll be the same story but I do not think a postseason miss is in the cards.

I don’t expect Dallas to make it but that’s a legit group of teams that could be all fighting for 10-11 wins.
So what they can’t afford is to have any kind of collapse

Bears have one of the easiest schedules this year
They were a 7 win team on top of that that’s added Allen, Swift& Odunze, full season of Sweat
With how Fields played Williams doesn’t have to be a saviour for Bears to have a shot. Atleast 10 wins is a realistic target for that Bears team
