DALLAS—In a brutally honest press conference Tuesday, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy shocked reporters with an unexpected admission. “Every year, I stand up here and say this is our year,” McCarthy began, his voice tinged with weariness. “But let’s face it, I’d be shocked if we actually win the Super Bowl.”
The room fell silent as McCarthy continued, “It’s been so long since this team won, I’m not even sure I remember what it feels like. Sure, there’s always a small chance we get lucky, but realistically, we’re just hoping for a good run.”
Reporters were visibly taken aback by McCarthy’s candidness. One journalist, still processing, asked, “So, you’re saying you don’t believe it’s possible?”
Stunned silence again filled the room as McCarthy continued, “I mean, come on, you’ve seen our play calling, right? But hey, anything’s possible. Maybe we’ll get lucky and play every game against backup quarterbacks.”
McCarthy continued with a shrug. “But if we win, I’ll probably be more surprised than anyone else.”
Fans, now feeling vindicated, took to social media with mixed reactions. One tweet read, “Mike’s just saying what we’re all thinking. #HonestyHour.”
