Cowboys Week 3 Loss: Is Schotty the Problem? | Houston Preview
After a tough Week 3 loss, we're breaking down what went wrong: Was it the timeout call with 1 second? Aubrey kicking out of the endzone? Or the conservative first-half offense? We debate whether Schotty's play-calling is THE reason for both losses and ask if someone else should take over. Plus: How bad is the defensive line play, is Parker getting enough leeway as a first-time coordinator, and can Dallas' offense hang with Houston's defense in Week 4?Hosts: Paul Ryan (@Paul_Ryan15), Mike 'The Pig' Crum (@cdpiglet), Brenden 'Fergy' Smith (@Brenden_Smith226)Topics covered:Game-deciding moments (timeout, Aubrey kick, final drive)Schotty's play-calling vs executionDefense: DL concerns & Parker's first seasonWeek 4 matchup vs HoustonMike's All-22 film reviewBrenden's takeOne Word + Top 5 movie songsSubscribe for every Cowboys episode every Monday. 🤠Do you want to start your own podcast?
