Dez Bryant's sideline message: 'No time to relax'

CHICAGO -- A national television audience once again got treated to the titillating sight of Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant screaming at teammates on the sideline.
On this occasion, Bryant expressed his anger after the Cowboys twice settled for field goals in the fourth quarter instead of finishing drives and stepping on the Chicago Bears' throats at Soldier Field.
Bryant said he hollered at teammates that they needed to seize the opportunity and not let up.
"No time to relax," Bryant said after the Cowboys' 41-28 win. "We're not going to relax because we've got an opportunity. That's the only thing I think about is an opportunity. We've got an opportunity to do something.
"Everybody knows I hate field goals. I love Dan Bailey, but hey, it is what it is. All I care about is us getting that W. There's been too many situations. We got [to get] our s--- right. We got it right."
Bryant, who caught six passes for 82 yards but was not targeted on either of the fourth-quarter drives that resulted in field goals, adamantly denied that he demanded the ball or complained about not getting an opportunity to make a play.
"F--- no. Hell no," Bryant said. "Anybody will tell you in this locker room, it's an unselfish mindset. That's what we're creating up in here. It's making sure, hey, we're doing what we're doing to win this game, not being relaxed. We don't want that. We've got an opportunity to do something big."
Bryant acknowledged that his sideline rants could look bad on television. He's not exactly concerned about perception.
"I do not care," Bryant said. "Because I know I'm not doing anything wrong. They don't know what's going on. I can't care less. They ain't on no sidelines. Nobody's on the sidelines with us.
"The only thing they're waiting for us to do is take an L and they can talk a bunch of s--- about us. ‘Oh, the same ol' Cowboys in December.' C'mon, man. Ain't none of that. We're going to take advantage of what we need to take advantage of.
"I don't give a f--- who films it. That's the truth. That's the truth. That's how I feel. As long as we get the W, that's all that matters."
