The Dallas Cowboys news is here.
Schottenheimer looks to past stars to inspire Cowboys - Todd Archer, ESPN
What happens on the field matters most, but don’t overlook the culture-building of Brian Schottenheimer.
Time was running out and the Dallas Cowboys’ meeting room was getting louder and louder.
Joe Looney needed to make one more free throw to win the competition for the offense as 30 seconds ticked down to zero. And when he did? Chaos ensued.
“It was sick, man,” right tackle Terence Steele said. “Everyone was cheering. It was awesome. Everyone loves it.”
Never mind that Looney last played for the Cowboys in 2020 and the player he competed against, Bradie James, last played for them in 2011. There were bragging rights on the line.
The central theme to Brian Schottenheimer’s approach in his first year as the Cowboys’ head coach is “Compete Every Day.” It’s on the wall leading from the locker room to Ford Center. It’s on a wall in his office.
