LEFTOVERS: Cowboys coach feels the heat
Source: Las Vegas Review Journal
After Sunday's debacle by the Dallas Cowboys in their loss at St. Louis, one Dallas columnist is calling for Cowboys coach Wade Phillips to be fired.
"There is no way to truly deliver a message of urgency to a collection of players and a coaching staff without, figuratively, cutting off the head," wrote Tim Cowlishaw of the Dallas Morning News.
The Cowboys have lost back-to-back games, including Sunday's 34-14 clunker to the 2-4Rams. Dallas has won once in its past four games -- over winless Cincinnati.
Added Cowlishaw: "What has been gathering steam for a month reached something of a crescendo as the Cowboys played by far their worst game of the Wade Phillips era. And frankly, it should be the last game of the Phillips era, but (owner Jerry Jones) made it clear afterward that there will be no coaching changes made.
"It's a team of uninspired excuse makers who take their cue from the head coach."
