If history has told us anything so far with Mike McCarthy at the helm it is that the Cowboys have been awesome following a loss.
The Cowboys lost to the Bills last week, and travel to Miami to take on the Dolphins tomorrow.
Since McCarthy took over as the head coach, the Cowboys are 12-1 following a loss including 3-0 this season.
That is the best in football.
History Repeats Itself
The Cowboys lost last week to Buffalo, as we all know.
They got pushed around and beat up, the Cowboys are going to go into Miami and win this football game.
This team has one last chance to prove they can beat a good team on the road before the playoffs start.
Mike McCarthy has only lost back-to-back games as the head coach once since he has been here.
That is crazy when you think about it.
Maintaining Miami’s Offense
One common theme has hung around in all the Cowboys losses this season.
Arizona ran all over them, the 49ers ran all over them, the Eagles ran all over them, and so did the Bills.
It’s not that the Cowboys don’t have the talent up front to defend the run, because they do.
I understand the strength is to rush the passer, so when teams take that way and try to make them stop the run it hurts, but this has to change like now.
Dallas only has 35 tackles for loss against the run, 23rd in the league.
The Dolphins are going to try to establish the run first and open up some shot plays to Tyreek Hill.
The Cowboys are going to have to live with Hill and Tua connecting on some deep plays, but that is what the Cowboys should want.
Get ahead early and control the game.
The team has looked different after their losses this year.
It is going to be hard to blow Miami out due to their offense, but if I was a Cowboys player, I would be pissed off.
At what point do they finally show up on the road?
They did it against Philly, but that was it.
The Cowboys need this game badly.
They can still win the NFC East, and gain the 2 seed if the Eagles lose one more game.
They need to win this game to show me they can beat a good team ON THE ROAD.
They are more than likely going to need to win three games on the road if they want a chance to go to the Super Bowl.
Don’t let Miami punch you in the mouth like the Bills did.
If Dallas does not win this football game, my hopes of them winning three straight games on the road in the playoffs will be gone.
If they don’t end up with the two seed, they will have no chance to beat the NFC South winner on the road, then the 49ers and Eagles.
I do think this team feels different, but that feeling is starting to shirk, please show up and win this football game.
