Despite the resounding 47-9 loss, Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy remains unwaveringly optimistic. He refuses to let his team’s defeat against the Detroit Lions deter their spirits. McCarthy is determined to bounce back from the blowout and instill a sense of resilience within his players.

McCarthy’s Monday news conference commenced nearly two hours behind schedule due to unexpectedly extended meetings - take away what you will from that. However, amidst this delay, he gave an insight in his belief regarding the season and the Cowboys’ outlook.

“When you have a chance to step back and really look at everything, I think it’s important for all of us, it’s part of the message to the team, I gave them a number of questions today as far as things to think about and make sure that they are reflecting, make sure they are looking in the mirror and just make sure you’re filling in the blanks.
