America’s elite team Dallas Cowboys recently played their first preseason game against the Denver Broncos on Saturday. It turns out the team had to face a frustrating loss of 17-7, and several penalties rallied up by the end of the game. For a long-time, the Cowboys struggled to mitigate their on-field penalties, but every time, they ended up being the leaders. Certainly, this 10 points loss fumed the head coach Mike McCarthy, who revealed that he was unhappy with the performance.

By the end of the third quarter, the Cowboys were 17-0 down; but they could only score their first point in the fourth quarter with less than five minutes on the clock.

Even before the halftime whistle, the Cowboys committed nine penalties for 65 yards. McCarthy couldn’t believe his eyes as the players were repeating the same mistakes they did in the last season. During half-time, he spoke to CBS 11 and expressed his displeasure against the players.

“It’s not good enough football. It’s not good enough. We’ve gotta be better there. … We battled through some penalty situations, but we have to make sure we get all these substitutions [and] get everybody in the game.” He said. By the end of the match, the Cowboys registered 17 penalties in total for 129 yards in a single game.

How did Mike McCarthy respond to the questions over his job security?

Ever since he assumed the office in 2020, Mike McCarthy has always been a successful coach, leading the Dallas Cowboys from the front. However, the previous year’s playoff blunder in the wild-card round raised questions over his job security.

“It’s irritating that the first question you ask me has nothing to do with how I do my job,” McCarthy responded to the media questions that asked him about his job security. “I show up every day for work to win a championship. How do we win today? That’s what I’m asking. It’s a media-driven narrative or at least a narrative-driven outside my realm.” he added.
