Micah and Ceedee want accountability

[Creeper]

Leadership on the field is underrated. CeeDee is right. They have to have that will to win, which means when they need it, they have to have another gear. That comes from the on the field leaders. I heard Pollard on the radio saying Dak is a good leader in the huddle, but I don't know that he is good enough. The QB has to be the best leader on the offense.

 

[Cowboyny]

like a Von Miller? Hmm...hes available.

A good positional coach could also be that guy, not a buddy of MM.

Here's the issue...

Jerry's culture is one of celebrity. Celebrities don't want to follow the rules, they want special treatment.

McCarthy is a fraud, but at his very best, he's a players' coach. He is not a disciplinarian and even if he tried, he'd be undermined by Jerry.

Zimmer is tough as nails. He will be undercut by Jerry as well but it's his own fault if it happens. He knows exactly what he just signed up for.

Players as leaders you ask?

Dak? He's a rah-rah guy, just like Jason Witten was. He'll blame himself and say we have to do better, all the cliches. But because they are always rah-rah, there's no validity or merit to it. It's background noise, especially in the heat of battle.

Micah? Talented beyond all belief. Emotionally? He's immature and he says things without thinking them out. He's more likely to burn it all down than he is to build something special.

CeeDee? Super talented but he has the WR diva gene. I think his heart is in the right place; his body language makes him to hard to take credible as the guy you rally around.

This is the Dallas Cowboys and the environment that Jerry has created.

Leadership 101: You are either teaching it or allowing it to happen.

its the cult of personality in Dallas. They come in here celebs from day 1, then create their branding. Thats what stopping us from going any further. The focus and want to is not there. Staff included in some cases.

And they also want to be Cowboys for life

This is truth..
This team needs discipline and accountability, including these two players.
My question is, who is going to provide it?
We have a lame duck HC,
and a sunshine pumping GM.
This team is all in ?
Don't see it.

Whatev….

Right lol

What could they possibly say that would make you feel better?




Nothing? Then what are they supposed to do, hide until training camp rolls around?

Yes if that makes you feel better in your tummy and your heart

 

[Coogiguy03]

It ain't about saying. We've all heard every excuse a millions times. It's about doing. They need to shut up and show us. Say less, do more.

"No comment" is still a perfectly valid media response to questions. They don't have to keep speaking to the media beyond what is contractually required.

THANK YOU!!!!!

These are the types of personalities the scouting department looks for. They never look for dawgs or people who will get in other peoples faces when they’re playing like dog snot. It’s by design. All this talk about being leaders is what it is, talk. They. Do. Not. Care.

They do look for dogs, Micah WAS ONE he came into the clown atmosphere called the cowboys and now he's an active member

 

[Coogiguy03]

Arsenio does a podcast during the season but wants his teammates to lock in for 22 weeks.

Lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

Organizational health 101: If you want REAL accountability in any credible organization that wants to achieve its goals, the accountability must start FIRST at the top of the organization.

If the leaders at the top of an organization are not accountable for failure, there can be no accountability anywhere else. Asking coaches, players and staff to be accountable when it does not exist with the people in power at the top, ruins any chance for accountability anywhere else.

This is a fundamental organizational truth that this owner either doesn’t understand or refuses to accept. The NFL owners winning SBs the last three decades hold their GM accountable for results within a timeline or they find someone else. If winning a championship is the goal, having accountability for results on the people at the top matters.

Having lifetime guaranteed contracts in the front office because of last name as opposed to results is organizational cancer.

 

[ICP]

They 'have to have the leaders'? As two of the supposedly best players on the team shouldn't that be their job? Lol, tells you what they think of the QB as well

 

[Qcard]

Right............ yet the Dak stans who put his stats above everything else are the super fans.

Stop with the moronic nonsense, we're all fans here. You're no better than anyone else who posts here, no matter how hard you wave your pompoms or beat your drum.

MVP stats are usually celebrated by real fans of the players respective team...but when you have Dak Haters who waved their pompoms and beat their drums when Andy Dalton, Cooper Rush and Trey Lance were acquired are playing traffic cop on moronic statements it is very entertaining

Dak Haters I Know your stripes!!!

 

[Runwildboys]

Yes if that makes you feel better in your tummy and your heart

I'm not the one who needs to feel better. I have no issue with players having other interests during the off-season.

 

[CowboyStar88]

Sorry Coog, you don’t just flip like that.

 

[plymkr]

As usual, the typical cowboys statements, just play better, MARCH up to jerry and tell him we're not doing all this extra stuff, the focus needs to be on football only!

Right. That’s how to get accountability. The players saying they want changes. I got to admit, this is the first good news of the offseason. CD and Micah wanting discipline and openly saying they need the will to win. I hope CD keeps talking, especially to the boss that signs the checks. Nice, I’m liking CD more and more.

Pretty much everything you said is either misguided or just wrong.

What world do you think we live in where people in their early 20s don’t engage with social media? Especially if they are a public figure. It’s part of their career. You might not like it, but that type of branding and marketing is part of modern society for many careers.

As to Jimmy cutting either one of these guys, don’t be ridiculous. Jimmy coached some of the most off the rails, out of control, narcissistic, drug addicted dudes in the league and didn’t bat an eye.

And you want guys cut because they have a podcast.

Jimmy would not cut players who could play and help him win, he admitted that, but he would keep them in line using psychology , and talking to them.
The players loved jimmy, jimmy wanted to win a SB, so the players wanted to give him that.

It would be the same with social media, he would school them in what was ok, and what was not ok, but he would let them do it.
