Cowboys Struggle in Preseason, Fans Demand Answers

As of August 17th, 2025, the Dallas Cowboys have been struggling through a dismal preseason, suffering two consecutive losses and raising concerns among their fanbase. In their most recent game, the Cowboys were soundly defeated 31-13 by the Baltimore Ravens at AT&T Stadium, marking the second time in a row they have given up 30 or more points.

Despite the team's poor performance, head coach Brian Schottenheimer is adamant that the Cowboys are not going to panic. "We're not going to panic, and we're not pushing the panic button, we're pushing the work button, and that's what we're going to do," Schottenheimer told reporters after the loss. However, he acknowledged that the team's overall performance was unacceptable, stating, "The fact that we lost both halves, that's something we have to get corrected. There's too many good football players, there's too many good coaches for us to perform the way we did tonight."

Fans have not been holding back their frustration, with one fan commenting that "based on what we have seen in these two games, it appears they've never practiced football." Another fan took to social media, tweeting, "Maybe he should let his starters get to work next week and play a couple of series. This team looks awful." The growing sentiment among Cowboys supporters is that Schottenheimer may not last long as the team's head coach if the poor preseason results continue.

The Cowboys have one final preseason test against the Atlanta Falcons this Friday, and Schottenheimer will be looking to turn things around before the regular season begins.
