WATCH: Jimmy Johnson Inspires Cowboys In Epic Halftime Rant on FOX
Tell us how you really feel, Coach.
The Dallas Cowboys' historically poor performance over the first half-hour of their NFC Wild Card tilt against the Green Bay Packers inspired former Pokes boss and current Fox Sports studio analyst Jimmy Johnson into an epic rant during halftime coverage.
With Dallas down 27-7 at halftime (enduring its worst postseason deficit at home since the 1969 Divisional round against Cleveland), Johnson embarked on the speech he'd give if he was stationed in the AT&T Stadium locker room during intermission.
Johnson admitted that his speech would lose some form of authenticity thanks to television censorship, but he nonetheless was able to get a fiery rant that had fellow analyst Michael Strahan lined up in a three-point stance and ready to join the Dallas pass rush.
View Johnson's rant below:
"I'll just say this: every single one of you, you know how hard we've worked," Johnson began. "I don't need to have people pointing the fingers one thing or another. You get your rear end in there and play the way you know to play! We can win the game!"
"We're going to open it up, we're going to go fast tempo, defense get after (Packers quarterback) Jordan Love! They can't give him that much time! You do what you're supposed to do, we'll win this game!"
Alas, it doesn't appear that Johnson's words made it to the Dallas locker room: the Cowboys mustered only a Brendan Aubrey field goal on their first possession and later allowed Aaron Jones to score his third touchdown of the afternoon. Green Bay leads 34-10 near the midway mark.
