You know, it is funny...

…how much this team is reminiscent of the Switzer-era Cowboys of 97 or 98…

The team would be flat and play below its performance level, and everyone wanted to blame the problems on bad playcalling by Zampese (and now Garrett) rather than the players playing like ass.

i mean

the players are probably playing alright. but i’m not sure what you can do when you have a pass happy offense and a qb with an injury that hampers his throwing.

Much like Switzer

And Jerry encourages that, because he makes it clear that he’s the one in charge, not the head coach, and Jerry perpetuates the coddling.

by Adam J. Morris on Nov 23, 2008 12:47 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Yep

Jerry’s in control. He runs everything. Thats why we won’t see another coach like Jimmy on this team, because he would try and take control away from jerry. Thats why we won’t see a bill cowher on this team, which everyone thinks could happen

In Smoak We Trust

by Smoak Some on Nov 23, 2008 12:50 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Well

We said that once before, and Jerry broke down and brought Parcells in.

Parcells got things back on track, and then Jerry decided things could go back to the way they were, where this is Jerry’s personal plaything.

Jerry sucks.

by Adam J. Morris on Nov 23, 2008 12:52 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Hell, if i went 5-11 every year

But the good thing for jerry was that the year parcells left, dallas went 13-3, which jerry gets credit for.

And parcells didn’t have complete control….you think TO was his idea?

In Smoak We Trust

by Smoak Some on Nov 23, 2008 12:55 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Of course not

Parcells didn’t want Owens here.

I’ve heard it suggested that Jerry started asserting himself a lot more than last year or so, which is what led to Parcells leaving.

And when you start referring to every college football head coach as “Quitter”, you can call Parcells “Quitter.”

Jerry started getting tired that Parcells was getting all the glory for changing this team around, so Jerry slowly started taking back power.

Right now, it just shows me that I don’t think he will ever hire a controling coach again

Jerry wants to be in charge but I don’t think that is a barrier to nfl success – so why not let him have it?

I don’t know about tremendously. The offense has made exactly one play, and that was the typical Romo and Owens make a lot out of nothing ad lib.

But the defense has stepped up twice after goofy long passes, and this Polk has made two awesome special teams plays. The offense still needs to get it going though.

Just seems like such an easy explanation

When an offense is playing poorly, it rarely matters what sequence of plays you call. He obviously passes a whole lot on first down and runs a lot on second down, but it’s not like there is no reason behind it.

by Brett Perryman on Nov 23, 2008 1:13 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

The thing is

That it hasn’t worked. I mean, the standard play sequence is incomplete on first down, run for short distance on second down, leading to a third and long. A lot of the time he isn’t putting his players in a position to win.

by jf55510 on Nov 23, 2008 1:17 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Again though

running on first down hasn’t worked when they’ve done that either. When you aren’t playing well, play calling is going to suck.

What I’d question is whether there is something more that he could do to help the offense just execute better. Develop players, somenow get the Ol to stop committing pre-snap penalties, stuff like that.

How about

A screen, a dump pass, a run, something that gets you between 4 and 6 yards which gives you options, other than a a pass on 3rd and 10 on 3rd down.

i don’t see the point about complaining about a play that had the WR running free 15 yards beyond the line of scrimmage.

and a run on 2nd and 10 wasn’t going to get you 4 -6 yards. don’t know where you got that pipedream

A run

A run isn’t the only option, it was just an example. Are you telling me that there aren’t plays in the play book that are designed to get you 4 to 6 yards? Otherwise, why not just run 15-20 yard pass plays every down? The play calling has been atrocious this season and it is clear that JG is not the future for this franchise.

That was scary

didn’t know they called TO and saw 11 and 81 heading to the bench on 3rd and goal. I was about to get very irritated. But all is good.

It worked out

but it’s pretty stupid not to have either of them in the game on 3rd and goal.

TO

i think it is important to recognize that he might ask for the ball a lot out of the game. but during the game, all he cares about is winning. other selfish WR’s would probably pout a lot more about getting taken out on 3rd and goal from the 1

Any doubts now

that this is TO’s team? If he plays well, the team gets jazzed and plays well…if he doesn’t…

He just makes snide comments

that are usually negative against the Cowboys. He makes my head explode when he talks about T.O. He clearly cannot stand him.

What makes it worse

is that Troy cannot defend the cowboys at all, because if he did, everyone would call him a homer, like when boomer esiason called him out a few weeks ago

I don't think Troy hates the Cowboys

He gets called a homer all the time, and I think he’s pretty sensitive to that, despite the fact that he doesn’t seem like a homer from my perspective.

Which makes me mad

Phil Simms homer calls the Giants all the time, yet no one calls him out.

Troy makes one good call or says one good thing about the cowboys, armageddon basically

is probably as bad as Buck’s or worse. He’s one of few people in this world that I absolutely LOATHE. I can’t listen to him do a CBS game. I have to mute the TV.

AP Poll is irrelevant

Coaches matters though

2. OU 1,412
3. Florida 1,401
4. Texas 1,370
5. USC 1,288

The coaches poll

I don’t know why they bother with that. As if the coaches pay enough attention to know who the best teams are, and what team deserves to be, say, 18 vs. 19.
