We've seen this team for years struggle to be a disciplined team. Penalties on offense to kill drives at the wrong time, bone head plays on defense getting personal foul calls/off sides etc at critical points in the game. With this new coaching staff, can they instill the discipline in this team that has been lacking for years? They keep bringing up culture and wanting to communicate with these players. Will they communicate and stress the need to be discipline and hold these players accountable??? Please give your thoughts!!!
 
Easy fella, you're not that important, well I like you some days but i'd never steal from ya!!! Your thoughts are WAY better than my thoughts!!!!:cool::cool::cool:
Who ever said I thought I was important. I am just a fan like everyone else, giving my opinions.

I woke up, I made some coffee. (Thought) let me check in and see if any news from last night. Maybe Micah was signed :laugh:
Seen your threads awaiting approval, and thought. Well yeah, something new to discuss.
:thumbup:

We do need discipline for sure. Leading the NFL in penalties, every year, or in the top 5. Or would that be the bottom 5. It sucks. A good or great play always seems to be negated by a stupid mental error, resulting in a penalty.

I still blame Rowdy. He showed up in 1996. And well, we all know the results since then.
 
I believe McCarthy had a disciplined team until last year when he saw the writing on the wall with him being a lame duck coach and the Jones Boys giving him the worst offseason in history. I don't think McCarthy gave it his all and I don't blame him. I believe Schotty will build a disciplined, better coach team if the front office stays out of it and lets him do his thing.
 
Discipline begins with knowing your adjustments needed every play without dwelling in thought.
Not knowing assignments leads to missed snap counts on offense, gaping holes along with uncovered receivers on defense.
This will be obvious during TC and pre- season.
Then punishment for mistakes.
Not holding my breath.

Sometimes I believe I'm living in a parallel universe where I haven't seen a disciplined Cowboy team this millennium

Yet nobody appreciates the NEW things I bring in here to discuss, I mean i'm automatic baby every Coog posts goes at least 3+ pages lol, let me pump the brakes i'm not that caught on myself, I love this place!!! :thumbup:


You're totally right, it's like clockwork sometimes you feel it coming like man we're doing good we're doing good, WHEN is the penalty coming?????? Hopefully things change for the better!!

P.S. You are important when you're nice to me!! lol

In those kinds of conditions would you fill inclined to do the same?? They're not taking care of me, Jerry basically said we're "all in" he's not helping me, so why should I do my best!????

I don't blame McCarthy for not giving his all. Also, I believe there was no way he would resign with the Cowboys
 
No.

Players always have the option of appealing to the Cowboys "Supreme Court", i.e. Jerry Jones.

This effectively diminishes the HC's authority when it comes to discipline.
 
Whenever someone brings up team discipline, especially in the last couple decades, I remember what Jimmy Johnson always said. “ You play the way you practice. “.

That’s why Jimmy was hard on the players during practice and TC. Asthma field, running sprints, getting in player’s faces. And you knew HE was in charge, not some GM, HC wannabe. So don’t expect miracles with the idiot and son still there.

I often wonder how practices have been over the years, we obviously do the same things in practice we do in games and somehow these coaches allow that product to go out on the field on sundays, it's a mess, hopefully things change

The problem nowadays is that with all the rules set by the NFLPA, you can't have too many practices with pads, and it limits you to more walkthroughs (low effort practices), etc. Practices just aren't the same as they used to be. Penalties have been an issue with this team for many years (regardless of players and HC's). The ones that drive me crazy are the pre-snap penalties, as those can be corrected. Most other penalties are at the whim of the referees.

lining up in the neutral zone is one that drives me right up the wall
to me that is the most idiotic penalty of all
It should be a rule that any player that does than in a game is going to be doing a lot of scut work and wind sprints and things like that the next week
wearing a dunce cap
