Cowboys Fall to Eagles as Contract Questions Loom
The Dallas Cowboys suffered a humbling 41-7 defeat against the Philadelphia Eagles, with their lone touchdown coming in the first quarter. Offensive Coordinator Brian Schottenheimer didn’t mince words, stating, “Nobody is pleased with how we played or coached yesterday.”
Head Coach Mike McCarthy acknowledged the disappointment but emphasized their next steps: “It’s our responsibility to finish the race.” However, questions about his future loom large. When asked about his contract status, McCarthy deferred, saying those discussions will happen next week. Despite the speculation, he’s earned support from players who want him to stay, to which he responded, “Thank you. It’s a reflection of what we have here… when everybody talks about culture. We do things the right way.”
McCarthy, Schottenheimer, Defensive Coordinator Mike Zimmer, and Special Teams Coordinator John Fassel are all in the final year of their contracts. Any decisions regarding their futures will wait until after Sunday’s game against the Washington Commanders. This matchup could play a pivotal role in shaping the Cowboys’ offseason direction.
