NEWS ABOUT THE Dallas Cowboys
When queried about the weather, Coach Mike McCarthy made a jest by stating that a specific quarterback from Louisiana, Dak Prescott, is eager to travel to the north and compete in those conditions.
“When you have an opportunity to live and coach in that climate there’s some things that change your approach more than others,” according to McCarthy. “Temperature is last on the list, I’m more interested in the wind and the rain.”
“I had anticipated that the weather would be pleasant until this morning, when I learned that it had rained; consequently, we completed a few wet ball exercises. Simply put, we are prepared for anything. “I do not believe it alters the strategy,” Prescott stated.
The quarterback for the Cowboys is attempting to guide his squad to its sixth consecutive victory.
