Chronicle)NFL NewsBrown: ‘Not giving you
Dak Prescott took plenty of time away from the cameras trying to explain why he thinks the Dallas offense is close to breaking through the struggles most responsible for the Cowboys' losing record.The quarterback at one point looked for help in his description from Cole Beasley [url= http://www.thetexanslockerroom.com/authentic-sammie-coates-jersey]Sammie Coates Jersey White[/url] , the receiver who sounded off recently about the frustration his group feels in a sound bite that was perceived as a shot at Prescott.In short, Prescott sees no issues of unity with the Cowboys (2-3) trying for the third time to get back to .500 with a home game coming off a rough road trip. Jacksonville (3-2) visits Sunday."That's why I give these guys a lot of credit because we talk, we communicate," Prescott said Thursday. "There's not any beef or any tension from when I go see them on the sideline. It's great communication. They allow me to do that and we can be straightforward with each other."Newcomer Allen Hurns has joined Beasley in trying to defend a receiving corps struggling to replace Jason Witten and Dez Bryant and getting the criticism that figured to go with it.The former Jaguars player also caused a stir by suggesting that a particularly poor play call resulted in Prescott's second interception against Houston in a 19-16 overtime loss.Hurns didn't back down, but coach Jason Garrett and Prescott didn't necessarily agree that the call was so terrible. Offensive coordinator Scott Linehan brushed it off as a non-issue."I don't put any stock in that as being critical [url= http://www.thetexanslockerroom.com/authentic-jadeveon-clowney-jersey]Jadeveon Clowney Jersey[/url] ," Linehan said. "I'm the first one if you had a better play against that coverage to say we could have a better call there. You don't have to put that on Allen Hurns. He's busting his butt and we're really happy with what he's doing."The Cowboys have the 30th-ranked passing offense in the NFL and the second-fewest touchdowns. The receivers haven't really earned the right to second-guess because they aren't producing.But everyone agrees it's a combination of protection, Prescott's accuracy and their shortcomings."That kind of comes with the territory here," Beasley said of the criticism. "And I do feel like we've gotten a lot of it. But a lot of other people have too. So it's not just us. It's just kind of how it goes. Whether it's true or not, we've still got to go in and just do our job."The Cowboys have the NFL rushing leader in Ezekiel Elliott, but Prescott is still close to the bottom of the league in key passing efficiency categories two years after setting a rookie passer rating record as NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.To illustrate how he thinks the team is close [url= http://www.thetexanslockerroom.com/authentic-greg-mancz-jersey]Greg Mancz Jersey White[/url] , Prescott points to a play late in regulation against Houston when tight end Blake Jarwin was open for a big gain but J.J. Watt got to the quarterback before he could make the throw. Had the Cowboys converted that play, they likely would have been in position to kick a winning field goal."That's why you can't let outside of here seep into your head or get into your head," Prescott said. "You watch the game, you don't necessarily see that. So you just hear negative all this. We're this close."As the Cowboys keep working to get there, Garrett has no concerns about a divided locker room."We've got the right kind of guys on our team who go about it the right way every day [url= http://www.thetexanslockerroom.com/authentic-joel-heath-jersey]Joel Heath Jersey[/url] ," Garrett said. "I have the good fortune of spending time with them at meetings, walkthroughs and practice every day. They absolutely handle themselves like pros who support each other."Elliott used a few expletives to try to illustrate how he believes his teammates are accountable."There's enough accountability in this locker room that there's not going to be any finger-pointing," the star running back said.NOTES: DE David Irving returned to practice after a longer-than-expected excused absence to deal with an ongoing custody issue involving his young daughter. Irving was eligible last week after starting the season on a four-game suspension for violating the league's substance-abuse policy. He practiced one day but left the team again to deal with the personal issue. The Cowboys decided to keep him out of the game against the Texans. ... Dallas signed CB C.J. Goodwin from Cincinnati's practice squad and S Darian Thompson from Arizona's practice squad. Dallas added RB Darius Jackson to its practice squad, replacing former Alabama RB Bo Scarbrough. ... LB Sean Lee (hamstring) went through individual drills but was listed as a non-participant in practice. He is expected to miss his third straight game.
