We have seen this team perform at their talent level when playing ahead on the scoreboard, but really shutdown when they get so called punched in the face. We have heard the players state they weren't physical enough after losses.
There is no reason that this team should be down 23-7 in a home playoff game that they are favored in nor get totally blown out by an average Bronco team at home. There is no reason why this team continues to hurt themselves with committing so many pre and post snaps penalties. This has happened with different coaching regimes.
The common denominator is Jerry Jones. Head Coaches here have little power at all over their teams. Players know Jerry is the boss and they only need to answer to him. Jerry doesn't treat the players like workers, but rather family members and it is hard for him to separate business from personal relationships.
Our only hope is that he finally allows a coach to become the central individual who holds the power over the players. I don't think MM is that guy, perhaps Sean Payton will be given the power. What I do know is, this cycle is going to continue to happen, no matter the talent on this roster.
