Has Scandrick lost his mind? Totally unnecessary and classless. I mean, he is playing lights out, but I don't like that kind of behavior from the other team or the Cowboys

I loved it, glad he didn't get a penalty but truth is, this is a guy most of you wanted gone his first few years; no one thought he would last despite the fact that he always played hard. He just didn't have the talent our other corners had so he had to work a lot harder than they did to get where he is now. So yes Big O talk ish and be mad at everyone that said you couldn't be what you are today, play angry and give up nothing; be part of the new leadership when having to stay quiet and business like under the supposed Old leadership. This defense unlike past years has fire and he will stoke the flames, glad he didn't get a penalty but this emotion has been gone from this team for a long time so don't criticize, we could always have the business suits of the Brady Gang back.

People thought when the Cowboys got him that he was some crazy reckless player, but I never saw that in reviewing his games in Oakland. All of his issues were off-field.

Yeah, I really didn't get all the negativity towards him -- he's absolutely an elite athlete and blue-chip player who needed some time off.
He's an intelligent guy who probably had too many voices in his ear previously, and had to take control of his life.

When a guy like that tells you he's ready to come back, you better believe he has something to prove; he sure has played like it.

Man, Wilson completely misjudged McClain's height and athletic ability on that INT. It was almost insulting. I would have never, as a QB, tried to fit that ball above McClain's head. He's a massive LB.

That game was testy. How many scrums were there? Glad Scandrick didn't draw a flag there.

He's been fantastic in all areas. Most important thing is he brought a physicality element to our D, IMO.

I don't love the taunting, but OScan is VERY competitive and it's kind of a nice change to see the Cowboys doing this for a change and not other team's disrespecting Dallas.

Man, just enjoy the win. What's the point of calling fans out right now? Geez, this crap happens after every freaking win.

If Scandrick plays this well, he can mouth Jesus and I won't be mad about it. Hats off to these young guys budding in to a really good football team.

No offense buddy but I don't call this calling anyone out, its an opinion about how I feel about our players showing emotion. This kind of crap also happens after every loss how we don't show any emotion when losing. I'm ex Navy and work construction now and I guess I come from just a little harder stock than some so I apologize if this gets in your feelings and I'll just tone it down a lil bit for our softer spoken members. Apologies mi amigo...

It was also nice seeing Dez pushing his guys to the locker room at halftime while the brawl was going on. Lots of maturity all around!

Scandrick has always played angry, not really surprised he would do something like that

He didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Just got caught up. Glad his teammates were there to save him from himself.

when your team has sucked for better part of 20 years and you just walked into den of superbowl champs and stomped them....I am ok with it.
