### Kirk Herbstreit Criticizes Struggling Cowboys Ahead of Monday Night Football Clash

NFL and college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit has voiced his frustration with the Dallas Cowboys' disappointing performance this season, highlighting the turmoil within the team during a promo for their upcoming game against the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football.

The Cowboys, who entered the 2024 season with lofty expectations following a playoff appearance last year, have faltered significantly. They currently hold a dismal 3-6 record, and hopes for another postseason run are dwindling. The situation has been compounded by the loss of starting quarterback Dak Prescott to a season-ending hamstring injury. Additional woes include player grievances about issues such as stadium layout and sun glare during late-afternoon games.

In a promo aired during Saturday's College GameDay, Herbstreit, who witnessed one of Dallas' rare victories in Week 3, did not mince words when describing the team's current state, calling it a "train wreck." Herbstreit criticized the seemingly endless placement of the Cowboys in high-profile slots despite their poor performance, echoing the sentiments of many NFL fans tired of seeing Dallas struggle in prominent games.

Moreover, the Cowboys' dysfunction appears to extend to internal matters, with Michael Irvin reportedly advocating for Deion Sanders to join the team in the offseason. Meanwhile, head coach Mike McCarthy faces increasing pressure as his team prepares to host the Texans and their promising young quarterback, C.J. Stroud, in Week 11.

As the Cowboys endure a four-game losing streak, the mounting frustration within and around the franchise is palpable. Kirk Herbstreit's blunt assessment underscores the widespread disappointment surrounding a team that has failed to live up to expectations this season.
