I don't like Dak but Schotty is the real problem here

How'd you come up with that......are you watching our defense, front office, and the sideline. None of the QBs mentioned been on a team with the many flaws visible by the Dallas Cowboy organization. And before Dak, did Romo change a culture? Way over the top with that assessment.
I put Romo a level above Dak in the QB argument but he didn’t change the culture either. Romo was a mans man’s man through and through however. I think Romo had a better chance to winning us a Super Bowl than Dak but fact is he didn’t either. Dez caught the ball though! That was our year but the league stepped on our dreams
 
Dak is a veteran and didn’t play well yesterday, period. I don’t like him as my QB but I’m not here to talk about that today beyond that. My problem with this unit in 2026 is the coach. They’re softer now than ever! They don’t look like a team that cares enough to fight for their head coach and THAT IS damning. It worries me that Dak thinks that this game against the Buccaneers was a game they should have won. What is the coach telling them in that locker room? That they’re the Cowboys and showing up is enough for them to win? We also played like **** against the 0-3 Texans in the first half too. We can’t keep coming out slow and unprepared against at the times winless teams or any team for that matter. It’s on the coaching. This is my least favorite era of the Dak era and I don’t think that’s hyperbole or recency bias. FIRE Schotty!
Dark grew on me, dude can perform a lot of the time, but this running game is weak this season, and as you said, the coaching is bad…..this team doesn’t have enough guys that want it bad enough.
 
Ill say this

Yes Brian Schottenheimer is a terrible coach and didnt deserve this job

But

I would rather go forward with him and a new QB than vice versa
No way, people keep acting like Dak is the problem, he’s not…..he’s one of the only players that consistently produces. Yeah, he has bad game here or there, just like every single other qb….but at the end of the season, hes near the top of the league in numbers….go look at his stats when he has a full season. He put up 30+ and walked all over the Texans D, he’s played well except for the first half against the Bucs, the pics yesterday were off the wr hands……this team sucks because of the head coach, especially because of the D, not running the ball, and the overall lack of players with fight.

Fair.....the opinion is just as subjective as mine. This team is ringless for over 30 years. And the problems are far more glaring and blatant and obvious than the QB comparison........260+ yds rushing, passing and poise by a rookie QB, and Time of Possession dominance again. That is the current state with this team. We facing Jordan Love next game, and we know how he looked a few years ago. It's getting uglier before this team can grab some lipstick to put on the pig. But then again, Romo and now Dak have given us moments to place lipstick on the pig.

In retrospect the Houston Texans that were 0-3 very well could have beaten us too. They just played down to our level. In the first half they were outplaying us. It’s not a good look that a 0-3 team were outplaying us for two quarters and a 0-4 team were outplaying us for all four. Any given Sunday but it’s been some bad football this month!
 
the cowboys culture as set by the owner/gm is the problem.

jerry hired Schotty. because he can't deal with strong coaches like ben johnson.
Schotty has been very very bad the past three weeks. his decision makings suck. like last night. why go for two? stupid. what message were you trying to send to whom?

he sucks. parker sucks.

and it was obvious that this team drank their own koolaid and weren't prepared. that's on the coach. Dak said, this is a game they thought they would win. that's the problem.
you go into the week, with that mind set, you are not focused. and you end up getting spanked.
You Certainly Have a Valid Points!!! :bow::muttley::angry:
 
you guys suck. daks not the problem, the problem is we don't have enough good coaches, gm's and players to carry him.

Agree.....therein lies the "lipstick on the pig" effect. Offense is the only thing we've got (but it gets inconsistent, fails to execute, calls questionable plays, or bogged down on occasions, like last night). There isn't anything else to marvel at besides Aubrey FG attempts. Everything else is pretty much on ugly side. No offense to the pig.

Our Dallas Cowboys when we hear talk of winning the division or going to the playoffs.

Like I told my friend the other day “Maybe the design of the play isn’t bad. Maybe it’s poor execution by the players.”.
.
Maybe the players just suck.
Maybe Dak’s mind just goes to la-la land sometimes.
.
That defense, tho….good grief..:rolleyes:
So far worse than last year.
.
Then, maybe coaches don’t know how to coach.
 
Schotty is here because of Dak. The moment you change the offense, you’ll see what McCarthy saw before the bye when he took control. They went back to force-feeding Lamb.

Dak can throw against man coverage (it helps he has the best WR combo in the league), he’s wildly inconsistent when you slow the game down and play against good defenses that are discipline in zone.

The Texans defense is a joke, bottom of the league, especially their pass defense.

Part of that is because of us. People blaming Dak as if our coaching and D aren’t atrocious. No QB plays perfect football all game every game…..Dak has looked better this season so far vs Burrow and people hype him like crazy. Josh Allen had a bad game with turnovers recently….yet people expect Dak to be perfect all game every game. Not realistic. If our D was average, we would have won all of our games so far. Not to mention our running game has been weak. Bad coaching, worse D than last year, no run game…..but it’s all Daks fault?
 
The problem is the owner who keeps hiring experimental prospects as coaches. A team that was bottom last as their defensive unit should never hire an experimental coach as their defensive coordinator. At this point most of the coaches of this team are learning on the job. These were coaches hired by an owner whose franchise has not made it to the NFC championship game in over 3 decades. Nothing changes for this team with the Jones running the show. 10 years with Garret told me everything I needed to know about where this once a great franchise stands.
I cannot believe we endured 10 years of garrett. That's where much of my fandom died. I'd say I'm running on about 10% compared to the '90s up to the end of Parcells era. Once he hired Wade Phillips I knew it was back to business as usual and we really squandered what could have been at least one Super Bowl team.

Some people don't know this but against the Giants in the playoffs, I don't remember the year, 07 maybe, Jerry placed four tickets to next week's NFC championship game in each player's locker - before they even played the Giants! Well guess who found out about it? Tom Coughlin and he made sure his team knew.

No, it was awful before they played us. Every team they played before us, dog walked them in the 4th to the point they couldn’t stop any team from scoring at the end.


Dak hasn’t gotten anywhere and he’s had much better OL play his whole career here, while Burrow has been to a SB.

He’s had over a decade. Stop slobbering on your image of him! I get it. He can do no WRONG. The coach definitely is the biggest issue on the team right now but he’s on his 11th season. It’s been beyond time to show RESULTS
 
I agree - it’s the coaching staff…. They might be good at techniques but game preparation is horrid!!! Sure the Boys got the better over Houston, but Tampa could see in film the tendencies that allowed Dak to move the ball down field. So… blitz banking on changes on O-line; zone coverage with Tampa 2 concept and take away short reads. Dallas was woefully outcoached.

And defense???? #1 was to stop the run and make Daniel’s beat you with the pass… Nope… and poor prep with DBs yields horrible penalties that allowed extended drives.

This game wasn’t on players - it was coaching prep and soft mindset against a 0-4 team coming into Dallas…

Bring back Parcells!!!!
Totally agree.
