Why is everyone so quick to believe everything they hear or read? This player says this, Wade says that... Is it possible that the players and coaches both pay lip service to the media? Is it possible that these people who are giving the quotes on various things are either stressed because they just lost a game and are speaking out of emotion rather than intellect or could it be that, as in Wades case, he's just not a good public speaker?
I find it so humorous when people say Wade has no authority in over the players just by what he tells the media. I'm glad he doesn't bash his players in public. What would be the point? Just to make the media and fans feel good? He could jump and scream and spit hellfire and if they were losing the fans and media would still be all over him.
And to that point... why do people feel like that is the only way to properly coach a team? Do you really think these players are scared of their coaches? Its all an act. You want Rex Ryan? What has he ever won? You want Mike Singletary? What has he ever won? We had Bill Parcells, big scary guy that he is, what did he ever win here? You can look at the rest of the league and there are all types of coaches with all types of personalities winning and losing.
I don't assume to have the answers as I'm not privy to what REALLY goes on behind the scenes but all this whining about the coaches, Jerry, et al just slays me.
Feel free to commit harakiri or just sit back and watch where the season goes like I'm going to do. Crybabies unite!

What has Phillips ever won. Last I knew the goal of an NFL team was to win the SB. We have a coach has a great win%. Oh boy!
 
People know how talented AND well-coached teams play, this is not one of those teams. That is all.
 
What's getting old is Jerry wasting season after season due to his mismanagement and meddling.

But he's our coach. And he's a good coach. Not the best, but he's still a pretty good coach. Parcells was a good coach. Parcells' great coaching days were over by the time we got him. The players will respond. They like Wade.

14-2 until proven otherwise!

I agree Parcells' best years were behind him, yet he still took the 5-11 Jerry/Campo mess and got us back to respectability and the playoffs.

The problems is once it got turned around Jerry handed the keys over to Wade and Garrett while he went back to micromanaging the staff and team.

There was no where to go but up. Not denying Parcells wasn't a good coach. But so is Wade. Parcells built up our team, but he couldn't win a playoff game. Just wasn't meant to be. Wade has done that up to this point, and I'm hoping some of you cut him a little slack and just let him try and build upon last year's success. Season is long from over!

Nothing has changed since Parcells was hired, lots of penalties every year, back breaking turnovers, wilting in playoff games...just when you think this team is turning the corner, they regress and fall apart. This team is unfocused and undisciplined. It has not changed since Johnson was fired. Jerry is the only constant and he allows this type of mindset in Valley Ranch.

When a talented team like dallas plays that undisciplined,mistake filled football,on a pretty consistent bases.You can pretty much bet the farm,that their practice habits suck.Now who is to blame?Well first you can blame the head coach,or you can blame the man that put this structure in place.

You should post more often. That was fun.

If you look back, Romo didn't earn the starting job until partway through BP's final season. While I do think BP was at the end of the line, he was still 10x the HC Wade ever will be and would've been far more successful here if he had someone like Romo starting from day one like Wade was able to inherit.

Bottomline is that Wade is a mediocre HC and has had his hands tied on top of it.
 
Eh, I don't think much of any of our coaches...or at least not Garrett or Wade...but still a coach can only make so much difference. Even if a coach is too soft, players can step up in practice and on game day to motivate their teammates. On Offense, I think Dez can be that guy.

Don't even bother - idiot "Wade won one" logic, as if the teams that they played with didn't matter. Winner: lowest football IQ, master series.

Exactly, it's just like when Parcells was here, what did he ever do? Certainly didn't win a Super Bowl.

Quit simply, the time has passed that Wade was given a chance.
He is not up to the job. This is a talented team in disarry.
Yeah, he don't tackle or catch the ball or commit penalties on the field. Yeah he don't win when it counts.

Succinct and unassailable. I thought that BP would have to go, primarily because he had reached the end of his rope with Jerry and TO (Jerry's anti BP injection). But I wasn't that worried, because I thought that Jerry had learned the obvious lesson that the Cowboys will only improve with real independent and empowered coaching staffs, at that point having succeeded with the real coaching model for the 2nd time after so many many failures. But no, the idiot jumped back on "I'm in charge" Barry Ball coaching style immediately upon Bill's departure.
