New coaching staff, new mentality and new culture

You’ll probably mope around the rest of your life
2/4 NFCE teams made it to the NFC Championship game and then one won the SB. DAL is the only team going through a transitional season. That doesn't smell of success.
 
Most people seem to be basing their opinions on the 2025 season outcome on the fact that the previous years coaching staff is the same coaching staff currently on deck. They either discount that fact or just chose to be ignore it to further their agenda. Well, that’s a mistake. There’s a thread out there about how much the defense is going to suck. How could anyone know that? They couldn’t. New coaching staff, new mentality and new culture. There’s threads out there about how the offense is going to suck because of no WR#2 and they didn’t draft a RB until the 5th round. How could they know? They couldn’t. New coaching staff, new mentality and new culture.

This is an exciting time in the NFL with new players from free agency, trades and the draft as well as new coaches all around. If you can’t get excited now about this years Cowboys then maybe you should find another type of entertainment. Because that’s all it is folks. Entertainment. No reason to become a Debbie Downer over everything like most of the posters are. It’s an exciting time and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2025.
You at least have to consider the “new” coaching staff will not be as effective as the previous one. Just be cause it’s new does not mean it’s an improvement. The new culture may be counterproductive.

The other three teams in the division do not have new head coaches. They’ll enjoy a degree of continuity. Dallas’ new head coach is in his first head coaching job at any level. Assuming he’ll be better at it than his predecessor, Mike McCarthy, is unlikely. Experience counts for something. In addition, Schottenheimer was part of the previous coaching staff. Jerry Jones spoke with McCarthy prior to hiring him as the new head coach. Obviously McCarthy would have been the head coach if Jerry had acquiesced to McCarthy’s demands.

New coaching staff is true enough. Whether or not this new group can change culture and mentality has yet to be seen. It’s certainly not something fans can count on.
 
......I also feel Shotty is going to surprise everyone. Its the perfect setup.

No one has any tape on these Dallas Cowboys.

Maybe this guy will get US over the hump. :star:
 
DAL will probably come in dead last in the NFCE. They are comprised of "dudes." Outside Dak, CD, Micah, and Aubrey there are a bunch of no names.
What was the point of freeing up salary cap space, and not signing any legit FA's?

If we added 1 impact player, I would be excited.
 
Nice post. Personally, I fall into the "Debbie Downer" category. Three decades of following the Jerry JonesBoys has me very cynical. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twenty-nine times.....
I believe that Shotty wants to change the culture, but fear he'll be undercut by Jed and Jethro above him
But here's wishing that you're right and I'm wrong
This draft looks like Shotty got what he wanted.

It's just unfortunate that we, for the most part did not participate in FA, with plenty of cap space available.
 
Culture starts at the top.
Look at the jump the Commanders made after Snyder.

Helicopters during practice is one of the dumbest things I’ve seen from an owner.

So new coaching staff, new mentality and new culture is all that is needed to be successful in the NFL? Its seems so when i read your argumentation.

Our "new" HC, who should set the tone about those points you mentioned, has been here for years. I doubt he has a complete different mindset of how to approach things. If so he would have left years before. Just because you cant work with other people who have a complete different mindset for years day in and day out. So i dont think there is a lot of change to be expected. If you read or hear something like it thats the usual PR rubbish.
The fundamental culture in Dallas is set by our FO and so by the Joneses. No HC will change that to the better. At least no HC did in the last two decades. So thats a trend that shouldnt be ignored just because you or me are afraid to be called a "Debbie Downer".

Btw why should i search for new entertainment when Dallas is playing bad? I like watching football. Football is not Dallas.


There are not many (if at all) convincing arguments in your posts to show me that 2025 will be different than the years before.
 
The OP must have a severe case of amnesia. I still can’t believe some fans think culture in Jerry’s country/social club changes with a new head coach.

Please some admin develop a reminder feature, we really need this.
 
There are three types of fans who come on social media regarding their teams:
- People who want to cheer for their team
- People who want to discuss their team
- People who want to vent about their team

Those three groups of people frequently don't get along. Honestly, this particular website has one of the biggest divides I have seen.

Regardless, I do not see reason for positivity. The fan in me hopes I am wrong.
