Parcells can't sleep after loss

IRVING, Texas (AP) -- Bill Parcells and his Dallas Cowboys are no longer alone atop the NFC East despite another solid defensive performance.
"It's crystal clear what happened. We just didn't give ourselves a chance to do anything," Parcells said Monday.
He still hadn't slept since losing 12-0 to New England the night before.
"Eleven mental errors, four dropped balls, five offensive penalties, three turnovers and a sack. This is all on offense. What's that add up to?"
It was the second shutout loss in four games for the Cowboys (7-3), who still share the division lead with Philadelphia. The Eagles have won five straight since their 23-21 loss at Dallas on Oct. 12.
The Cowboys' next two games come against difficult teams in a five-day span. They play Sunday against Carolina (8-2), which has the best record in the NFC, and then remain home against Miami (6-4) on Thanksgiving Day.
"Sure, we're in a good position, but we're going to have to change some things around or that position won't be good for long," Parcells said. "I told them [players] I don't want them to get down on themselves, and that we don't have that luxury now of doing that. It remains to be seen if we can get back on track soon enough."
