Dallas Cowboys in 'Attack Mode' at Los Angeles Chargers, Says Coach Mike McCarthy

In what was a true test of the Dallas Cowboys' "Texas Coast Offense" against the San Francisco 49ers, it left many seriously underwhelmed.

In the beatdown, the offense's credibility took a huge hit. But now, as the Los Angeles Chargers enter the collective view, the Cowboys get a shot at redemption.

Coach Mike McCarthy isn't stewing on the offensive deficiencies that were on show against San Francisco; he's moved on to the Chargers' 24th-ranked defense.

“I’m into the plan of how we’re going to attack their defense,” McCarthy said. “I’m focused on attack mode. We’ve done our self-scout. We’re in tune with what we’ve done. I think a big thing is what we’ve put on tape, particularly in the details of the mannerisms and how we’ve played and how it's going to line up against these guys.”

The Chargers defense gives up points (averages 26.0 per game) and hasn't kept a team under 300 total yards of offense yet this season, so that is where Dallas can attack.

The Chargers do give up scores and yards regularly (in three of their four games, they have given up 24+ points). This is where McCarthy's offense needs to get its groove back.

With CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, and Brandin Cooks all looking to bounce back from the San Francisco loss, there could be some openings in the Chargers' defense.

Derrick Ansley's unit gives up the most passing yards per game in the NFL (299.7), so Lamb and co. could feast on Monday night.

If that doesn't give Cowboys Nation hope, the Chargers also give up 104.2 rushing yards per game, so Tony Pollard could also see some success. Combined, the Chargers defense gives up the second most total yards per game (404.0).

As McCarthy stated, the offense will be in attack mode, and there is more than enough evidence to suggest that the Cowboys' "Texas Coast Offense" could get rolling at SoFi Stadium on Monday night.

Dak Prescott stated that Dallas has no time for a "hangover" after the 49ers brutally dominated them, and the Chargers' defense looks like it could be the hangover cure the Cowboys desperately need.
