From the episode

Run defense, we know it's been a problem, but I think it's worth highlighting again, and Downs is relevant here. 31st in a second-level run defense, according to FTN. 28th in the open field. They gave up 51 15-yard-plus runs. Only the Giants were worse in giving up explosive runs. Something that you imagine, Downs will be very good at helping is limiting some of those explosives. He's a phenomenal run defender.

STACKED’s take

Downs is a phenomenal run defender who should help limit explosive runs; Dallas gave up 51 15-yard-plus runs (only Giants were worse) and ranked 31st in second-level run defense.
