This goes back to camp cupcake and camp marshmellow,

I told you cowboys fans about this after the playoff game where nate newton said, the team doesnt and hasnt practiced in pads since september, but not in pads at all in november and december. coach softee wade said, we dont have to do that. The offensive linemen didnt do their cardivacular work the staircase thing all that bye week and week leading up to the playoff game, if you dont hit and prepare to hit, your body gets soft in 3 weeks, thats a given fact. So, i told you what nate newton said, and most of you blasted me for that, and nate. Now what do you have to say.

now, we find out that good ole wade hasnt had the players practicing hitting at all during practice. That came from larry brown, and we know its true now. just like jimmy johnson said once, fatgue makes cowards of you, but when a team is more physical than you and hits you in the mouth, eventually your going to back down.

This team is way to soft and sloppy. That starts with the head coach. And jerry jones allowing him to do so.

Now teams, espn, nfl media, fox sports are laughing at the cowboys and us fans. That stinks!

The only thing that will turn this around, jerry jones says and backs up what he said when he ripped the coaches and players.

Oh, yeah, i told some of you about doom and gloom and most of you said stop it, get real, etc, its going to be ok, now what do you have to say.

this says it all right here, when the cardinals staff says, we saw some body language of the special teams and thought we could do some things to score, and they sure did, kickoff for touchdown and punt blocked that got our best punter in cowboys history hurt for the year. Then when stephen jackson said, we could tell by the body language of the cowboys that if we got on top of them, we could win, etc, and stephen jackson said, this was the easiest defense that i have ever ran against, and their body language.

When players are laughing in the locker room after jerry jones rips the coaches and players, you have a arrogant team that thinks they can do what they want and dont have to work to be the best. And good ole wade has been letting them get away with it, and things would be ok, just like some of you told me things would be ok, now what do you have to say.

i admit i am very ticked off right now and upset. It stinks when other teams are laughing at you and the cowboys, and some of the players are laughing too.

jerry jones has spent a ton of money to turn this around, and you still have some arrogant players on this team and some arrogant coaches. Ther rear end needs to be kicked all over the field, and i dont care what greg ellis says, that when they get you back to practice they want to run your legs off.

we the cowboys let you do it your way greg ellis and you havent done anything yet. All you do is whine and cry about things, and point fingers at others but not yourself.

there were 11 to 12 probowlers on the cowboys agaisnt the rams, where were they? THIS STINKS. I am going to fight with every fiber of my being, and if it means going down with the ship, i will do it, but i am going to fight, so if i say something to offend anyone, please bear with me, and be patient, i cant stand to lose like this.

It would be ok if we at least played hard and fought, but we didnt even do that yesterday, just sloppy sloppy football. And it has been sloppy football for about a month now.

NO MORE CAMP CUPCAKE OR CAMP MARSHMELLOW FOR ME. This team doesnt appreciate what it takes to me to win and want to win. some of the players are just content to barely win and get to the playoffs if they are lucky, that has to change with the attitude of this team.

You are what you are, till you want to change, some of these players dont want to change, till that is fixed this team will never go anywhere.

When one player like Flozell Adams whom had a bad game last week and this week, and says. I played ok last week, thats arrogant and stubborn, and that reflects to the other players eventually too and rubs off on them. Till that is fixed, this team isnt going anywhere till some changes are made.

Now, wade can still do this, but he cant be goood ole buddy anymore. His job should be on the line, and he should know it and he needs to change his coaching style of being a good ole boy but a real head coach and kick some players and coaches rear ends.

Yeah, some revealing comments, to be sure...S-O-F-T.

The iron, of course, is how strong they looked on their opening drive...Of course, that was until the D stepped onto the field.

This is nothing new. Several of us saw this in the first three games and got called chiken littles for it.

what an embarrasing time to be a Cowboy fan, this team is being labeled soft, our head coach is a freaking teddy bear. no wonder half the team is knicked up or injured. i once heard Jimmy used to bring the team down to padre island have them run sprints in the sand. the next coach we get better be a hard nosed coach, thats gonna bust these guys into shape.

im afraid if these guys are not truely into football shape by now, whats gonna happen to them in november and december?

Im thinking of a word..

I can see it in my head...

starts with an S

sawww...soooo...soooaaaf...soooaaft..soft

Oh, that's it we are soft. Like some kind of Pillsbury Dough Boy coached team. Soft breakfast croissants that melts on the sight of an offense is how soft we are. We shouldn't be soft.

I was muttering the exact same word during that pathetic showing against the Rams. We made Downy feel rough yesterday.

I don't disagree with this at all. Outside of Ware and maybe Ratliff we don't have anyone currently playing on the defense that seem to play hard from start to finish.

It's embarrassing to me that we are looked at as a bunch of candy-*****. It boggles my mind that they don't seem to let it bother them. The chemistry of this team, especially on defense is frightening and the problem is NOT 100% coaching.

I've been saying this many, many times since Parcells was here. Of course, all the Tuna-apologists would keep saying, "But we had so many injuries in '04 and '05", "But bringing Owens in '06 ruined the chemistry of this team"(Of course, even Tuna WANTED TO on this team), "But we always played hard throughout all 4 quarters of the game UNLIKE now", "But Tuna always brought in blue-collar guys unlike Jerry brining in prima donas", blah, blah, blah.

Strahan is a phallus-headed Cowboys hater and is a joke as an "unbiased" commentator. He's a joke as a human being and husband as well.

He may or may not be, but one thing is for sure, he's absolutely 100% correct in this instance.

People were saying this weeks ago, this team has been mentally soft for years and now they have let it carry over to their physical play as soon as things stop going well. We are not a team built to grind out tough wins, they built this team to play with a lead.

Exactly what I've said on other threads. This team is great when things are going well and when we're winning. But, when we get punched in the mouth and things start going downhill, we fold like a cheap suit. The team is full of a bunch of frontrunners. No guts, no heart, no fight, and no pride. If this doesn't change immediately, there will be no post-season.

Steven Jackson's comments:

For another words, the cowboys are mentally weak and they won't recover if you beat up on them early.

We keep talking about all this talent we have on this team. What scares me is maybe we don't. If the Cowboys truly are talented, they need to wake up and show it. It's gut check time. Would somebody MAKE A PLAY, please?

I have some of the preseason on dvd and I'm telling you this is the same team we saw back then. The only difference is the word is out they have no heart! Its a weakness just like a poor OLine or a LB corp u try to exploit! Teams r exploiting their pride or lack thereof.

Training camp should be hard not a cake walk into the regular season.
And this team can't take a punch.
Training camp get's you ready for that.

On another note, it still pains me that Jackson isnt' a cowboy.


I still remember how enfuriated I was when we traded down instead of drafting him.

I'm not talking about this particular comment. I've watched him week in and week out presenting opinions on the Cowboys and he gloats and takes a lot of joy in making his statements. He's enjoying the heck out of Dallas' issues right now, and his mannerisms let everyone know it.
