First, if you remember the last few games, even ones against bears, cardinals and giants. Whoever is scouting upcoming teams and game planning is very bad. Even our defense that is at least decent now, is being out game planning, this must be fixed and shown to shottenheimer and Jerry Jones. Next, we have a elite kickoff and punt returner but our special teams coach is poor coach putting turpin in winning situations
 
^ I agree. Turpin seems to be very timid and isn't attacking. It appears he is now making "business decisions".
This. He doesn't seem as hungry as he was or maybe he is mad about the lack of offensive reps or is saving his body so he can take those offensive reps? IDK.

He's a fumble waiting to happen. That's the cost for having a tiny guy that's blazing fast, be on returns. It's not for the meek or timid. Special teams is brutally physical and demanding. The upside is he could break one at anytime to swing an entire game.

The last 3 games we have made second half adjustments.

I totally agree with the bolded but absolutely not with the underlined. IMO the issue is he is trying to break one for a TD every play instead of just getting what he can. He is prioritizing trying to pick that hole that will get him the huge gain over just getting us good field position and it is hurting us. I think he has stopped this a little and the last few games has done a better job of just taking the kickoff at full speed and we have been better off for it

True, you've got a good point. I know it's a lot easier for us watching to see the running lanes than it is down on the field.
