I hope this thread

doesn't get moved even though it is not strickly about the Cowboys, however, it's very relevant to the Cowboys. As a matter of fact, change a few names and nobody would be able to tell the difference:



The common threads through the Chargers' three losses (all on the road) this season are turnovers, penalties deep in opposing territory and points against their special teams. “All these games we should have won,” cornerback Quentin Jammer said. “We had opportunities to win the game. We didn’t make the most of our opportunities. We’re giving it away.”

Chargers' poor start is on Turner, staff

...Norv is the jockey, and if he gives his horse a bad ride, as he did here Sunday in the Chargers’ pathetic 35-27 loss to the pathetic Raiders, he should own up to it. Use the whip, coach. These hand rides aren’t working...

.... Really now. With this schedule, I doubt there’s a Nobel laureate who could have given you odds the Chargers would be 2-3 after five games. This was a gimme 6-0 start, and Turner and his kids have blown it. It’s one thing to get beat. But to lose in this fashion is so unacceptable, so sophomoric.

It’s on Turner and his staff. The coach has several good players and a few great ones, but still too many guys who can’t find their butts with either hand on special teams. Bring in some people who can block and tackle and didn’t leave whatever clues they had in their Murphy Canyon lockers...

Two things:
What does this have to do with the Cowboys ?
And the title will probably be changed if it does stay in this forum.

And yes, I know Turner was with the Cowboys over a decade ago.

Are you incapable of reading something all the way through?

Anyway I've thought the Chargers were the Cowboys of the west for quite sometime, talented but ultimately impotent.

 

[Hook'em#11]

It is relevant.

It's the same lame excuses.

Just from the BIGGEST underachieving team in the AFC.

 

[ThreeandOut]

Actually, I think this thread is quite relevant to the Cowboys because the Chargers and Cowboys are very comparable. Both are talented, underachieving teams with mediocre head coaches.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Dallas and the Chargers have atleast one more thing in common, OLine deficiencies.

That Turner was with the Cowboys is irrelevant. That the Chargers, who are supposed to be SB contenders and are a talented team, just like the Cowboys, are having almost the same problems as Dallas, it's not.

This is mainly for the people putting the bulk of the blame on coaches and their staff. Norv is highly regarded around the league, deservingly so, for the job he's done in SD. For all intended purposes, he's not a perceived as a " softy " and his teams, although tend to start slowly, have finished strong just about every year since he's been there. Yet, he, too, is having issues with disicipline and players underachieving.

I read it through. It's like saying the (insert team) beat all these teams and are so talented but still come out 1-3.

It has nothing to do with the Cowboys. It's reaching for another lame comparison or excuse.

This Cowboys team does not execute, does not make adjustments, does not play smart football, does not play with desire, urgency, fire, or whatever words you want to use.

Accountability. This is the problem with this team and has been for a while.

Dallas and San Diego remind me of each other an awful lot.
