Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is within the closing 12 months of his contract and could possibly be on the recent seat. It is honest to surprise if the stress is affecting his decision-making.
On a 4th-and-2 at Dallas’ 38-yard line with the Falcons main 14-10 early within the third quarter, Cowboys punter Bryan Anger threw a move that Falcons rookie cornerback Natrone Brooks almost intercepted.
On the next drive, Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins threw an 11-yard landing to large receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III.
The faux punt was poorly executed, however the play name appeared head-scratching. The Cowboys had been deep of their territory, giving the Falcons a straightforward scoring alternative.
Maybe McCarthy would not belief his protection. Dallas allowed the NFL’s second-most factors via the season’s first eight weeks (28.3).
In the meantime, Cousins ranks fifth within the league in passing yards (2,106) and is tied for sixth in passing TDs (14) via his first eight begins.
Regardless, Cowboys proprietor Jerry Jones most likely did not love the play name.
Throughout a current look on KRLD-FM in Dallas, Jones appeared to tear McCarthy when he mentioned the Cowboys are “designing unhealthy performs.” Do not be stunned if he offers the coach a tough time in regards to the failed faux punt behind closed doorways.
