For Dak Prescott, Mike McCarthy and the Dallas Cowboys, their win over the Chargers on Monday night helped heal from their loss to the 49ers.
That sigh of relief you heard from Southern California all the way back in North Texas on Monday night was just a Dallas Cowboys team exhaling after a tumultuous week and
“Now, we’ll move forward from this one, go watch it, get better, critique it hard, see how we can get better from this game, even on a win, and then enjoy the bye week ... and then stack after that,” Prescott said. And this current team has shown to be a level below the 49ers, who have knocked them out of the playoffs the past two seasons and ended the Cowboys’ talk of revenge last week.
“We didn’t say much in the week,” McCarthy said. “We felt like we’ve done enough talking this week. They’ve been quiet, they worked hard. I just love their resilience and fight, and we came out on top.” The Cowboys weathered storm, which included a muffed punt that allowed the Chargers to tie the game in the fourth quarter.
“I think this is part of the definition of a complementary football team — the offense picks up the defense, and the defense picks up for your offense, and special teams all the way around.,” McCarthy said. “There were plays that needed to be made, especially down the stretch. It was a bumpy game out there. A lot of back and forth. A lot of resetting your jaw and just keep fighting. I thought our men did a really good job there.
