Cowboys players had parties planned this weekend

[TheMarathonContinues]

Maybe if they did some blow they'd play better?

Possibly. Maybe they’re doing percs before games…..

 

[TheMightyVanHalen]

I got news for them…players of the 80s and 90s use to do blow before games. Partying the night before is no excuse they all do it.

I hear ya knockin, my man. But those were alphas back then. Masculinity is considered toxic nowadays. Betas can't hang with what those alphas use to do back then.

Well if everyone is betas they beating our *** lol. We something worse than betas.

I said this before. Jerry runs his team like a carnival. He gets a piece of everything Cowboys and loves the exposure. Young players who come to Dallas don't understand what a buckled down NFL culture looks like. The culture in Dallas is soft and weak.

What’s the problem? I mean, they were told that they were already going to the championship game.

Probably by Jed, that’s why he was floored by the lost.

By everyone on this board.

I just think the team isn’t very good. There’s a reason why they perform at a high level versus the worse teams and get out punched by the better teams.

No, I think they're a very talented team, if they weren't good they wouldn't beat the worse teams that badly. You can't have this many Pro Bowlers, and All Pros and not be good! They can't get over the hump in most serious games, and that stems with coaching and being prepared, which they aren't most times.

But they beat bad teams badly and lose badly to good teams. That’s not a good team. We have good players but the team? Not so much…

And good teams are made up of good players. What those good players need is good coaching, and I really don't think that's happening. There's plenty enough talent on this team to go farther than losing in the Wild Card round at home! How many teams still playing wish they had some of these players?

Culture, tough to play when you’re hungover.
The “pep rally” was the night before the game.

Oh good old second round picks being wasted on dumb players.

@America's Cowboy @rambo2 . Still think taking these risks in the second is worth it?

So now Quinn and Mike aren’t good coaches?

 

[Blast From The Past]

Same thing happened to my team in hs as we were to play for 1st place the last game of the season and a party happened before the game not after. Good starters were suspended and we got rolled over like nobodies business. Was my last game and made me sick. Guys got over cofident and didn't stay focused like we had done all season long and the party was a dumb idea. Backups were not up to the task. I know it's a different situation but still is relevent as to how players prepare to be great compared to those who think they have already arrived.

Obviously not good enough to get past the first round of the playoffs with enough talent to do so.....

They’ve been to Super Bowls lol.

 

[Cmac]

If so.......and Big Mike knew about it.......Breaking News on the TV should follow.

If I'm GMing Sam is trade for a 5th, Hooker is traded for a 6th, Neville n Dorance are gone in FA. Heck, I'd even trade Turp for 6th. Clean house.

 

[Vabchshark]

They’ve been to Super Bowls lol.

And neither seems to be good enough to do in present day. You can't lose a Wild Card playoff game, at home, with this team.

Those coaches have SB's....these players don't. I don't know maybe the players take some blame here too?

 

[charron]

No heart gutless team. They lack vocal leadership from the players.

Oh definitely, I agree that the players hold some of the blame here as they are the ones actually on the field. I'm just saying with how things were setup, with the amount of talent, and home field advantage, the coaches were seriously out coached, and didn't seem to have the players ready. Not to mention no adjustments seemed to be made especially on the defensive side of the ball. I mean you have a guy named Aaron Jones that now has the most rushing TDs in a Packers playoff game ever with 3! We're talking about a team had the likes of Jim Taylor, and Paul Hornung!!
