Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy wasn't afraid to lay it out there for Sunday's game against Washington. “We're going to win this game,” he said. “I'm confident in that.”
You don't typically see coaches making predictions that open, but McCarthy thinks his team is set to get back on track. After a 6–1 start to the season, the team has fallen back to the pack a bit, and currently sits at 8–4. The Cowboys remain atop the NFC East, but Washington has been hot, and has clawed to within two games of their division rival.
Quarterback Dak Prescott appreciates McCarthy's confidence though.
