There were quite a few shots of Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant yelling at his teammates on the sidelines on Thanksgiving Day.

Unfortunately for him, and for Dallas fans across Texas and the nation, that was probably the biggest impact Bryant had on the game.

He finished Turkey Day with just four catches for 73 yards - not bad totals, but also not the normal, game-breaking numbers he's used to putting up.

Afterward, Bryant offered some semblance of a reason for his poor performance to reporters.

"They were being kinda cheap," Bryant said, according to Calvin Watkins of ESPN.com. "That's another story. It is what it is. I'll get it cleaned up and I'll be fine."

Ahead of this week's rematch between Dallas (9-4) and Philly (9-4), Eagles cornerback Bradley Fletcher, when told about Bryant's remarks, offered a few of his own.

"I guess we got in his mind, we got in his head a little bit," Fletcher said, according to John Gonzalez of CSNPhilly.com. "I guess he was letting some frustration out."

Bryant was apparently doing quite a bit of jawing during the game, something that Fletcher and the other Eagles defensive backs are entirely ok with.

"It's not a bad thing at all," Fletcher said. "We always try to get someone off his game or change the way they're thinking. When we're able to do that, that's a good thing for us."

Bryant's teammate, defensive end Jeremy Mincey, much like Bryant, is looking forward to the opportunity to right the wrongs of the team's previous meeting and said the loss, while painful, will go a long way towards helping the Cowboys the second time around.

"It will help us a lot," Mincey said. "This loss lit a fire in this locker room. I still see the desire, passion and fire in every teammate's eyes, and I promise you we will be ready for the second go-around. We got Round 2 and they got to see us again, and we will be another team, I can promise you that."
