the Dallas Cowboys came up just short in their 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Starting right tackle Terence Steele is drawing criticism for his performance.
The latest Cowboys news and reaction shows that fans as well as analysts were not pleased with Steele’s performance. In particular, Steele is under scrutiny for allowing a sack to back up the Cowboys significantly in the final seconds.
“Terence Steele allowed an incredible 8 pressures in San Francisco and followed it up with an incredible 8 pressures in Philadelphia,” DFW The Ticket’s Bob Sturm tweeted on November 5, 2023. “Great story, very good player, but he [is] nowhere close.”
NFL analyst Kevin Gray Jr. labeled Steele’s performance against the Eagles “absolutely horrendous.” Pro Football Focus’ Marcus Mosher also cited Steele’s play as an issue and not just in Week 9.
“Terence Steele has been a big issue for the Cowboys this season,” Mosher detailed.
Here is a look at the sack that is prompting Steele to be criticized.
Steele has a dismal 50.6 grade from Pro Football Focus in 2023. The veteran is on pace for his lowest PFF performance since his rookie season in 2020. This is alarming as Steele just signed a five-year, $82 million contract extension that is slated to run through the 2028 season.
