Cowboys have the number one reason for failure.
No accountability.

:popcorn:
Good amount of talent, but coaching and culture are the limiting factors…..softness, not enough bullies, not enough people who get legit mad with loses….instead people exchanging jerseys after a loss.

I was told we don't have the talent to compete with the good teams.

At the end of the day, sure we can criticize certain players and argue some players are overrated, but at the end of the day, one of the biggest anchors tying this franchise down is the fact Jerry really, really, really sucks at hiring coaches.
You are only as strong as your weakest link, and our weakest links are very weak. Supplement the talent we've got with a few ultra-talented players and the outcome might be different. We've gone without a game-changing 3-tech pretty much ever since we switched back to a 4-3 after Wade. We depend too much on cheap players to fill starting roles. You've got to do some of that, but that's all we do other than rely on the draft and some low-cost trades, which also come with with hit-and-miss results.

The kicker…very well deserved

The punter…also well deserved

Prescott…same, as this is regular season award

CeeDee…amazing numbers were a symptom of no running game, but you can’t deny his game

Martin…not so much this season, not even the best lineman on this team this season

Championship teams have talent in the trenches, on the defensive line and the offensive line and that’s where this team lacks talent and will never win in the post season no matter who the QB is.
Interesting how qualified football experts like you say how Martin has fallen and yet the people who DO KNOW keep picking him

“This season”, obviously he is a future first ballot hall of famer. He was injured all season, and it showed.

I note how none of those people are particularly good at stopping the run or defending the middle of the field which is where the Cowboys got thrashed all year.

No reasonable person and certainly not Zack would consider 2023 as anything but his worst season.

The people you claim "Do Know" obviously went off name recognition rather than actual performance.

He's had two coaches who would push back on him - Jimmy and Parcells - and they're both in the HOF. Jerry wasn't happy with either of them. He ran off Jimmy and only hired Parcells to get his stadium referendum passed. Everywhere in between it's a certain type:

1. A guy getting his first ever NFL HC gig. That guy will agree to anything Jerry wants.
2. A former HC who is desperate for another chance and doesn't have other teams interested in him. That guy will agree to anything Jerry wants.

People bring up names like Belichick and Harbaugh, neither of which interest Jerry. One, he wouldn't be the only one interested in them - they're not desperate. Two, they'd want things to run a certain way and wouldn't be afraid to question/challenge Jerry and Stephen's decisions. They don't want coaches like that.

He sucks at hiring head coaches because he wants ones who need him more than he needs them. Belichick and Harbaugh, for example, don't need Jerry.
