its the players and the coaches;
both,
main problem is wade not having players accountable, wont roast them, or cut or trade them
when you dont make players accountable, how will they get better, they just can say, i have the team made, you will get fired coach
till these players are having their rear bottom kicked, and you cut or trade some of these players saying why you cut thm or traded them, then the players wont change why should they, you baby them wade
then look at parcells he was known as a tough you know what, and he couldnt get the players motivated for the 2 playoff games parcells took the cowboys too the playoffs,
ultimately the players have to play, but coaches have to coach
now to coaches, when you have to have 4 of your asst coaches teaching special teams, that shows right there, the speciall teams coach isnt feared by the players or respected, because the players keep messing up on special teams, then when you made those 4 asst coaches teach special teams, you took them away from what they were doing, like campo on dbs, etc
next, like todd archer said, the cowboys should have checked out romo way before game time with the rams, and if need be then they could activate brooks, but management didnt do that, thats goes back to coaches
then lets look at flozell adams we all agree that flozell was playing badly in the arizona game, possibly leading to romo getting hurt, why wasnt the offensie line coach houck getting mcquistan or doug free ready, its the offensive line coachs job to get those players ready
then lets look at the long run by jackson of rams in the 3rd qtr, the rams used 2 OT's on the left side, did stuart see it and call another defense, no way 2 linebackers and small zach should have been out there alone on 2 big OT's, again poor coaching
its both, players and coaches
this is the nfl and the nfl east, just like nate newton said, this is a slobber knocker game again, and you have to have your players ready mentally and physically ready to play heads up, man on man, knocking the offensive linemen or defensive linemen ready to play smash type football
but when you dont hit in practice, get your players used to absorb and give those hits, then the other teams will slobber knock you around
jimmy johnson knew this and he always got his players ready, but no, not wade, i dont want them hurt in practice
so now some of the players are getting soft, why do i say soft, listen to what the cardinals said, we saw body language of the cowboy players on special teams that sometimes they dont hit in kickoff coverage and punting, so we thought we could make some plays sure enough a touchdown on kickoff and a punt blocked where we lost our best punter ever for the cowboys in mcbrair
then listen to what the rams said, we thought if we could get on top of them early in the game, we could like break their morale, confidence, because we could see their body language the way they played, not hard, here i come, but laid back, just liike old wade
if you dont practice hitting etc iin practice it shows up in games, in special teams and offensive line and defensive line
its both, players and coaches, just like keith davis said on special teams, you have to want to, some of the players have an attitude i dont want to give up or sacrifice my body, etc,
