News report: responses often given by players…
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb offered a candid and “embarrassing” admission following the team’s recent struggles. After a crushing 34-10 loss to the Houston Texans—marking the Cowboys’ fifth consecutive defeat—Lamb stated, “Obviously, everybody is looking to embarrass us, right?” Reflecting on the team’s past success with three consecutive 12-win seasons, he acknowledged that Dallas’s current woes have made them an easy target for opponents, adding, “We had so much success… it’s starting to bite us now.”
Lamb’s honesty highlighted the team’s fall from being dominant to now struggling, exacerbated by injuries to key players like quarterback Dak Prescott. He emphasized the need for the team to regroup and finish the season with dignity despite their dwindling playoff hopes.
This frankness has been viewed as refreshing amidst a challenging season, contrasting the standard diplomatic responses often given by players. The Cowboys’ current state has turned them from victors to underdogs, a stark reversal of their dominance in recent years.
