Mike McCarthy and the Dallas Cowboys have returned to Camp Cupcake | Opinion

The Dallas Cowboys and coach Mike McCarthy conducted a simulated game on Tuesday, which means they probably lost.

When you’re 6-10 and conducting simulated games you want to be sure to be as close to the real thing as possible.

The best news coming from the Cowboys’ simulated game on Tuesday was Dak Prescott threw actual passes. He and teammate Amari Cooper, who is also being held out for precautionary reasons, ran some individual 2-minute drills by themselves.

The Cowboys have two more days here under the tortuously hot 72 degree temperatures before flying to Phoenix to play the Arizona Cardinals in their second fake game of the season, and then they return to Texas.
