"Jason Garrett 2.0": NFL fans react as Brian Schottenheimer refuses to push panic button despite Cowboys' disastrous 2 preseason games

Brian Schottenheimer and his Dallas Cowboys have stumbled through the preseason with back-to-back losses, and fans aren’t holding back their frustration. After a 31-13 beatdown by the Baltimore Ravens at AT&T Stadium, the Cowboys have given up 30-plus points in consecutive games.

However, the new Cowboys head coach isn’t buying into the panic.

“We’re not going to panic, and we’re not pushing the panic button, we’re pushing the work button, and that’s what we’re going to do,” Schottenheimer told reporters after the loss.

Still, he admitted the team’s performance wasn’t acceptable.

“The fact that we lost both halves, that’s something we have to get corrected. There’s too many good football players, there’s too many good coaches for us to perform the way we did tonight.”

Cowboys Nation didn’t share the same patience.

One fan called him “Jason Garrett 2.0.”

The Cowboys have one final preseason test against the Atlanta Falcons this Friday.

Brian Schottenheimer weighs in on Joe Milton's performance vs. Ravens

The Cowboys gave Joe Milton his second preseason start on Saturday night, and it was another rocky outing for the quarterback. Milton went 9-of-18 for 122 yards with an interception while getting hit for a safety on the opening drive against the Ravens.

Ball security and pocket awareness continue to be glaring issues, but Schottenheimer brushed off the QB's struggles, saying:

“I wouldn’t say I’m concerned. I think we came out with a little bit of a different mindset in terms of trying to run the ball, though they got him…"

Schottenheimer stressed better support and ball protection moving forward.
