In an outburst this weekend, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy acknowledged that he was “embarrassed” over throwing a tablet on the ground.
Dallas, who finished 12-5 the previous season, has drastically regressed as they enter Week 10 at just 3-5. And when the team was stopped on a fourth-and-one last Sunday in a loss to the Falcons, McCarthy’s annoyance reached a boiling point.
In response to the play, McCarthy smashed his tablet onto the ground, an action he claimed on Wednesday had “no excuse.” “I feel ashamed of it,” McCarthy said to reporters. It’s something for which there is obviously no justification at my age [60].
