Dallas Cowboys HC Brian Schottenheimer received some criticism from analyst Colin Cowherd. However, he was not scrutinized for his preparations for his debut with the team or for play-calling and roster decisions.

Cowherd called out the head coach for wearing his visor backwards during a recent press conference.

"You know I don't like backwards hats," Cowherd said on his show. "What's worse is a backward visor. That's a two-win team. I'm taking away four wins.
"When you sit in front of a podium, you're representing the Cowboys; you're representing the Bank of America; you're representing a $12 billion corporation. I think you've got to do better as a head coach than a visor backwards," he added.

Brian Schottenheimer has been with the Cowboys since 2022. He joined as a coaching analyst before serving as the offensive coordinator for the past two seasons.

Last year, the Cowboys finished third in the NFC East with a 7-10 record, failing to qualify for the playoffs. This led to the team parting ways with ex-head coach Mike McCarthy after five seasons and naming Schottenheimer as his replacement.


Ex-Jets HC Eric Mangini shares feelings on Brian Schottenheimer's 2025 campaign with Cowboys

Before joining the Cowboys, Brian Schottenheimer worked as the offensive coordinator of the New York Jets from 2006 to 2011. During the first three seasons, he was part of Eric Mangini's coaching staff. Last month, Mangini came forward with an unfiltered take on Schottenheimer and his ability to improve the Cowboys' offense.

"I think people are underestimating what Brian can do," Mangini said on FS1's "Breakfast Ball" show. "Brian was my offensive coordinator in New York when I was with the Jets, and one of the things I really liked about Brian is that he puts a lot of pressure on the defense. ... I think he's going to be excellent."
