PHILADELPHIA -- The Dallas Cowboys have had more than their share of miserable moments in this mean-spirited city, where the fans once booed Santa Claus.
Hey, no one is ever going to forget that.
Rob Ryan's brash style is refreshing, but for the Cowboys' sake, perhaps he needs to scale back a bit.Just like longtime Cowboys fans won't forget Barry Switzer and fourth-and-1 (twice) in 1995. Or those knuckleheads cheering Michael Irvin's being down as he lay motionless on the field with a neck injury in 1999.
Then there's the Cowboys' 38-point loss in 2008, when a victory would have resulted in a playoff berth.
And those games are off the top of my head.
Guess what?
We can add the "All-Hype Hiney Kicking" to the list after the Philadelphia Eagles smacked the Cowboys 34-7 on Sunday night at Lincoln Financial Field.
If you're looking to assign blame -- based on Facebook and Twitter, you are -- feel free to pin this loss on our resident loudmouth: defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.
Remember back in training camp when he made comments about beating the "all-hype team"? Well, he didn't mention the Eagles by name, but we all know whom he was talking about.
He recently referred to it again, saying something about kicking the Eagles' butt if they weren't ready to play.
After the game, Ryan seemed contrite.
"The whole [expletive] thing was on me," Ryan said. "If I gave them any extra motivation, hell, I certainly never backed it up. I gave our guys a lousy plan. We had no chance, and it's all on me."
