Dallas Cowboys Struggle to 3-3 Record

The Dallas Cowboys enter their bye week with a 3-3 record, reflecting a season marked by inconsistency, exemplified by Dak Prescott's performances—culminating in a devastating 47-9 home loss to the Detroit Lions and a clutch win against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Coach Mike McCarthy, whose job security is in question as he approaches the end of his contract, is focused on addressing the team's erratic play ahead of a crucial game against San Francisco. Despite owner Jerry Jones reaffirming support for McCarthy, the pressure is mounting for the Cowboys to perform better, especially at home where they remain winless. With the NFL trade deadline approaching, discussions have surfaced regarding potential trades, including tight end Luke Schoonmaker, as the team looks to bolster its roster. Additionally, the Cowboys' running game has been under scrutiny as they rank last in the league in rushing yards, further complicating their offensive struggles. The upcoming games will be critical for the team's playoff aspirations and for McCarthy's future with the franchise.
