Stephen A. Smith Wants the Dallas Cowboys to ‘Hurt’ in 2021
Follow Us
Jerry Jones-owned Dallas Cowboys started their 2020 NFL campaign with high hopes under new head coach, Mike McCarthy. The former Green Bay Packers man was trusted with the task of leading the NFC East franchise back to the playoffs in 2020. However, things did not go as per plan.
Coach McCarthy and the Cowboys were dealt a massive blow in Week 5 as star quarterback Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending double compound fracture in the win against New York Giants. The Texas-based franchise further struggled with injuries to key players. However, their major downfall was a poor defense.
Ultimately, the Cowboys finished 3rd in the NFC East above rivals Philadelphia Eagles with a 6-10 record. One man who wants to see them fail yet again is ESPN talk show host Stephen A. Smith.

“I want them (Dallas Cowboys) to tease everybody and to believe that they’re going to be relevant. That’s what I need. I need people out there thinking the Cowboys are gonna do something okay… see if you fall from the curb it don’t hurt that much. But if you fall from a building, it hurts a hell of a lot more. You know, assuming you survive.”
Good luck this season, @FCDallas‼️⚽ #MLSisBack pic.twitter.com/1TlPOGvwaN

“I want the plummet to be severe. I want it to hurt. I don’t want it to be something they see coming…I want it to be one of those situations where they come crashing down where they talk and smack. That’s what I want,” Smith said on the show.
While some will wonder what exactly the Cowboys did to deserve such hate coming from Smith, his prophecy might just come true. The Cowboys signed Prescott to a 4-year extension this summer. They also own the 10th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
