I’ve always believed penalties are the results of a lazy team. Teams that try to do things the easy, lazy way or don’t have the fortitude to maintain integrity.
Good example: getting caught reaching for blocks and then holding on.
It’s absolutely the culture and it starts at the top. The head coach is just a figurehead in Dallas. Everything begins and ends in the FO.
Former players have even come out and said when they didn’t like things they went to Jerry, not the HC. It’s a three-ring circus that’s absolutely just about $.
