Ok, I always believe in what former Dallas Cowboys players that were all pros, played the game with what they see on the field.
Larry Brown said to him the first thing he saw was that the Dallas Cowboys looked out of focus, had no sense of urgency that a playoff bound December team needs and missing that killer instinct to put a team out of its misery like the Giants were with injuries etc. We all saw how the offensive line looked lackdasical in run blocking. Larry Brown didnt mean by the Cowboys not being out of focus because they were not playing hard or hitting hard, but psychologically they looked like they just got back from a vacation and not in tempo for a big game that they always seem to be in that mood in December.
Now, think about this.What Dallas Cowboys player on this team, that is a veteran on the team as a Dallas Cowboys player has won a playoff game?
Has Wade Phillips ever won a playoff game as a coach?
Another thing that I have said that I dont like about wade, he seems to try to hide things and say we can overcome our defenicienies, but wade doesnt fix them till he has to, case in point, the run blitz for first game of the year, then the pass coverage in 2nd game of the year. Now, we have a kicker situation with Folk possibly losing his confidence. Wade could have brought in a kicker to wake up fplk, but he didnt. Just like when crayton kept losing fumbles on special teams, finally jerry jones said enough and wade had to demote crayton. Which was a positive influence for crayton later. Why does jerry jones always have to force these issues and wade always waits some of you dallas cowboys fans that have said wade is a great coach?
Who has won a playoff game that can teach these players how to win that really knows how?
Remember Tony Romo's comment on I dont know what it takes to get to the superbowl etc. Thats true, Romo has never won in a playoff game. Or when you keep saying to the team, we can overcome this, it will get better, because I am a winning percentage coach with stats, what if that fails. Do you have a psychological teacher on the team to prepare the Cowboys players on the team to be focused if that theory doesnt work?
Like Hostile mentioned and some others of you, December. This has always been our downfall the last 13 years because we cant get over the big game or win in December.
Several times in his press conference Wade said on some of the collapses in coverage, etc... that he didnt know why the team lost coverage etc, isnt suppose to happen. Doesnt the head coach know who and what person is in responsible on those blown plays? If he doesnt know, then how in the heck should the Dallas Cowboys players suppose to know and be ready?
It seems like to me, every time we have a bye week, the players most of them go on a vacation, they loose whatever focues they have, aren't prepared to deal with the game with focus, being able mentally to put teams away when they should, like put a dagger in a team that is wounded and caused you pain in the past. Yet, the Cowboys seem to allow teams to hang around, toy with the team till the Cowboys players make mistakes in critical situations to let the opposing team win.
So, what do you think zoners, any merit to this the Dallas Cowboys needing a psychological teacher on the team, that is playoff savvy and able to help the cowboys over this experience with playoff or big game playing ability?
