Jimmy Johnson delivered a passionate pep talk during Fox’s halftime show after the Cowboys’ awful start

Jimmy Johnson is tired of watching the Cowboys choke in the playoffs.

Anyone who follows the NFL closely is accustomed to the Dallas Cowboys crumbling in the playoffs. It may as well be a January tradition. And after getting embarrassed by the Green Bay Packers so badly on Sunday that people started joking about Bill Belichick, one notable person decided enough was enough.

Former Cowboys coaching legend Jimmy Johnson.

During Fox’s halftime show, Johnson looked directly into the camera and delivered a weirdly passionate pep talk to the Cowboys with their season hanging in the balance. He professed that he’d keep it clean before saying the players need to get their “rear-ends” in order.

I’m not stunned this happened, but I love seeing Johnson still show this kind of emotion for the Cowboys:

Whether the Cowboys saw Johnson’s message is irrelevant. It’s apparent that all this consistent playoff failure is starting to wear on some Dallas franchise legends. We’ll see whether the Cowboys can change Johnson’s tune by the end of this Wild Card battle.

Vikings vs. Lions Week 18: How to watch, listen and stream

The Minnesota Vikings take on the Detroit Lions on Sunday afternoon. Make sure you know how to catch the game on Sunday.

The end of the 2023 NFL season is upon us and Sunday afternoon could spell the end of the Minnesota Vikings season. They only have a 3% chance to make the playoffs after losing their last three games and six of their last seven.

The Vikings had a chance to control their own destiny on multiple occasions but couldn’t make it happen for a myriad of reasons. With the final game coming against a Detroit Lions team that is still raging after feeling screwed against the Dallas Cowboys, their road to the playoffs has become that much more difficult.

Ahead of Sunday’s game, make sure you know how to catch the final regular season game of the season.

Micah Shrewsberry speaks after Notre Dame loss to Marquette

Here from the coach after the Irish were blown out.

MILWAUKEE – [autotag]Micah Shrewsberry[/autotag] knew Notre Dame had its work cut out for it against Marquette. That doesn’t make the Irish’s 78-59 road loss to the eighth-ranked team in the country any easier to take. While he certainly acknowledges that the Eagles are far and away better than the Irish, there has to be a feeling in the back of his mind that things could and should have gone better.

The competition doesn’t get any easier with former Big East foe Georgetown coming to South Bend right after final exams at Notre Dame are over. A little bit further out is the beginning of ACC play, and that’s when things really could get dicey. This game might have served as a dreary preview of what’s to come.

Fighting Irish Wire was on site for this game, and Shrewsberry spoke to the assembled media, which included other folks who cover the team regularly that made the trip to Milwaukee. Here is Shrewsberry’s opening statement and his answers to the two questions we asked him:

See what games will air in your market as the playoff race heats up

The playoff push is getting more intense as we enter week 14 of the National Football League season. There are some really big matchups across the league but two of them stand out above the rest.

The Buffalo Bills heading to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs headlines the late game slate. The Bills are 6-6 and need to win to stay alive in the AFC East race and currently don’t have a wild card spot. The Chiefs are a game behind in the race for the number one seed in the AFC and need to find a way to pull out a big win.

The night game will be the Philadelphia Eagles taking on the Dallas Cowboys. If the Cowboys win, both teams will be tied atop the NFC East standings and give the NFC playoff picture quite the different outlook.

CBS will get two games in each market with Fox getting one. See who will be airing in your market on Sunday courtesy of 506 Sports.

Eagles 21-17 win over Chiefs in Week 11 was most-watched MNF Game Since 1996

The Philadelphia Eagles 21-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11 was most-watched Monday Night Football game since 1996

The Eagles are a gold-standard franchise in the NFL, and the Chiefs have played in three of the past four Super Bowls, winning two.

The growing rivalry has become big business for the NFL, and their latest matchup shattered viewing records for the Monday Night Football platform.

Philadelphia defeated Kansas City 21-17 in a thrilling Monday night showdown that was a box-office success for the NFL on ESPN/ABC and Disney.

According to ESPN’s Press Room, the Eagles’ win over the Chiefs in Week 11 attracted over 29 million viewers (ESPN, ABC, ESPN2, ESPN+, ESPN Deportes, and NFL+).

The viewing audience of 29,021,000 viewers is the television franchise’s best – and The Walt Disney Company’s best – since the Packers and Cowboys linked up in 1996, when 31.5 million watched.

It was a massive win for Philadelphia, and the Eagles were again a part of the most-watched football game since their Super Bowl LVII loss to Kansas City.
