IRVING, Texas (AP) — Say this about the Dallas Cowboys — they’re consistent.
For the fourth Monday this season, they talked about needing to stop making stupid penalties, pointed out things they’re doing well despite losing and vowed to keep fighting to turn things around.

At 1-4, even ever-optimistic owner Jerry Jones realizes how long the comeback trail is getting.
Receiver Miles Austin was the latest player to point an incriminating finger at himself. He said repeatedly he feels awful for drawing a celebration penalty by leapfrogging a teammate in the end zone against Minnesota on Sunday. It came a week after a similar violation fueled another close loss.
