While last week’s loss felt like the end of the world for the Dallas Cowboys, the truth of the matter is that they have 12 games remaining in the regular season, and they also have the potential to play beyond that. Their next game is taking place on Monday night against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Given that Dallas plays on Monday night, today (Thursday) is their first day back at work. Mike McCarthy took to the podium as he usually does and addressed a number of transactional things occurring with the team.
For starters, linebacker Leighton Vander Esch, as was already projected, is headed to injured reserve.
