Former NFL linebacker and current analyst Antonio Pierce delivered a scathing assessment of the Dallas Cowboys during an appearance on CBS Sports' "NFL Today Plus" program. Pierce, who played nine seasons in the league and won a Super Bowl with the New York Giants, refused to entertain positive discussion about the Cowboys franchise, labeling them "an embarrassment."
The comments came during the November 9 edition of the show, though specific context regarding what prompted Pierce's remarks was not detailed in the broadcast segment. Pierce has been a regular contributor to CBS Sports' NFL coverage since joining the network.
The Cowboys, one of the NFL's most valuable and polarizing franchises, have not reached a conference championship game since the 1995 season despite consistent regular-season success and high-profile roster investments.
