Do we do an Oklahoma drill? Anyone that's been there? If we do, how did they look? Any good battles? Anyone dominate? And if we don't, wow we're soft and I feel bad for our players.

From Wikipedia:
In the NFL, some team owners and coaches do not allow the Oklahoma Drill. Notable exceptions include the Jaguars,[3]Chargers, and the Bengals[4] who use the drill as a kind of celebration of the first day of full contact practices. In the case of the Jaguars, fans use to be invited to watch and media members are allowed to submit match-ups subject to the coaches approval. However, with the firing of head coach Jack Del Rio, and with the hiring of current coach Mike Murlarkey, the drill has been banished by the team. Veterans and high profile NFL players rarely participate in pit drills due to the higher risk of injury.

So I'd probably say no and that we are probably as soft as 30 other teams.

Fun, sure. But if the vast majority of NFL teams don't do this drill anymore, it puts the Cowboys not doing it as the norm. Accusing the Cowboys of being soft because of this is bs
