Emmitt Smith's interview

[Chocolate Lab]

You can never se sure. But saying that heart and desire are not just as much a part of the game as talent is false IMO.

I wasn't saying that at all.

If anything, just the opposite.

What I'm saying is, how do you know where one ends and the other begins? And in the end, does it really matter?

I remember that first Pats win over the Rams. The Rams were seen by the popular press as the far more talented team. But in the end, the Pats not only won that game, they won two more Super Bowls while the Rams won nothing. So were the Rams really more talented in the end? Or was that one of those superficial observations Coco talked about?

I'll keep saying it: I don't get how people call this team so overwhelmingly talented when they haven't even won a playoff game yet.

he is correct but I think that Wade will get into their heads(the players) about the playoffs when it comes

 

[I LOVE ME SOME ME!]

I think Emmitt is a little off on the celebrity QB comments... I guess that Troy Aikman doing country music videos wasn't a distraction then. That seems like a bit more celebrity (Grand Ole Opra) than taking a weekend off in Cabo... Plus, I guess that makes Jason Witten a celebrity tight end too because he was there.

Big Dawg Paparazzi gotta eat too, no way Romo goes through a Jack in the Box drive-thru without ESPN splashing it on SportsCenter

SMH. People will go to great lengths to defend Tony Romo. I wonder if the video was shot during the playoffs. Yawn.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Yeah on the money, big time... Dallas needs to catch fire at the end of the season when it really counts. It all starts with the head coach.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

By the way, how many playoff games did Parcells win in Dallas? And how many playoff games did Johnson win in Miami? And which coach in the modern era has the worst playoff loss, and one of the worst NFL losses ever? What was the problem, didn't Jimmuh demand perfection?

Emmitt continues in the grand tradition of great football players who are terrible analysts.

Nice attempt to diminish the greatest coach the Cowboys ever had.
But the issue was coaching at Dallas. Not Buffalo and not Miami.

Again, in Dallas.
Jimma had success sooner than anybody in Cowboy history and the talent level went sky high in record time.
For the too-few years Jimma was here, the Cowboys were beasts and had a swagger to match.

Think back. All yew dawgs know that pre-game talk centered around by how many points the Cowboys would win each Sunday. The second Golden Age of Cowboy football.
Jimma molded those teams.

Jimma > all the others

The point is, how could a great coach produce a 62-7 playoff loss, the second worst playoff loss in NFL history, and the worst playoff loss in half a century, this after having several years to build his team and with a Hall of Fame quarterback? How could another great coach not win a single playoff game with his team, again, a team he ostensibly built? Emmitt Smith was a great football player, one of the greatest ever. As an analyst, he's an idiot. I don't pay much mind to Deoin Sanders' analysis either. Nor should anyone else. Emmitt is a terrible football analyst.
