Cowboys get humiliated by Colin Cowherd after late collapse vs. Cardinals

Colin Cowherd delivered a brutal assessment of the Dallas Cowboys after their historic collapse against the Arizona Cardinals. The FOX Sports analyst questioned the team’s coaching, consistency, and ability to compete despite having several talented players. Dallas suffered a painful 33-30 overtime defeat on Sunday after blowing a 14-point fourth-quarter lead at AT&T Stadium. The loss dropped the Cowboys to 3-5, despite playing one of the NFL ‘s easier schedules. Speaking on The Herd, Cowherd described the performance as one of Dallas’ lowest points in recent years. “I thought the Cowboys had bottomed out, but they grabbed a shovel, and they continue to dig, which is great when you’re searching for oil, Jerry, but not for football teams,” Cowherd said.

You can’t stop them, and they stop you.” Minshew threw three fourth-quarter touchdown passes, while running back Tyler Allgeier finished with 147 rushing yards. Cowherd also highlighted Dallas’ repeated failures throughout the season. He recalled losses and struggles against the Giants, Ravens, Buccaneers, and Packers. “The Cowboys have become those two robbers in Home Alone,” Cowherd said. “They’re falling down the stairs. They’re tripping over paint cans. You know, they’re stepping on toys. It’s a different way to be ridiculous throughout.” Colin Cowherd questions Cowboys’ coaching and future The analyst said Dallas’ problems go beyond its struggling defense. He pointed out that the offense also failed during two crucial fourth-quarter possessions. The Cowboys went backwards on both drives, including a three-and-out to open overtime. “It’s one thing that the defense, last in the league in anything, gave up six yards of play,” Cowherd said. “But the offense had two big possessions, fourth quarter, end of regulation, and they went backwards with both.” Cowherd then questioned head coach Brian Schottenheimer’s leadership. He called Dallas the worst-coached team in the NFL and argued that its talent deserved better. “We know Jerry went cheap on coaching,” Cowherd said. “… this is the worst-coached team in the NFL, and it is a wide margin.

Let’s just start moving guys, because this isn’t working.” Dallas has several established stars, but Cowherd said the current coaching setup is holding them back. The Cowboys now face growing pressure to respond before their season slips further away. — Enjoy free coverage of the top news & trending stories with The Big Lead Newsletter  —
