Super Bowl Winner Urges Cowboys to Fire Head Coach After 'TNF' Loss to Bucs
A former Cowboys star and Super Bowl winner called for the team to fire Brian Schottenheimer after their loss to the Buccaneers.
In a 24-16 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football, Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer came under harsh criticism from a former teammate. Keyshawn Johnson, a Super Bowl winner with Tampa Bay, uploaded a video to social media expressing his frustration and calling for Schottenheimer's dismissal. Johnson stated, "I'm gonna give y'all some advice: Get rid of that [expletive], man.
Just get rid of the coach. Get rid of the defensive coordinator. Get rid of the coach." He cited the team's struggles on both offense and defense, highlighting the rookie quarterback Jalon Daniels' impressive performance and the team's inability to contain the Buccaneers' running game. Johnson also criticized the decision to hire Schottenheimer as head coach, claiming it was based primarily on his last name rather than his skills.
The Cowboys defense gave up over 400 yards of total offense to the Buccaneers, allowing Jalen Daniels to have a strong game in his second start. Despite this loss, questions about Schottenheimer's future with the team may arise if the Cowboys fail to secure a winning season and postseason berth.
