I'm rather of the opinion that this is one of those, "Too many chiefs, not enough injuns" situations.

I don't think players can control this independently - Lewis controlled the locker room because Billick put him in a position to. You have to have the support of the coaching staff in fostering an atmosphere of accountability.

There are personalities on this team that could run this place under the right circumstances. We've got the Captains, we've got the ship, we just don't have the navigator.

Remember lewis was in charge because he was a leader

Wrong!!! We have a leader. His name is Tony Romo. If we win this week against the Giants, he will be directly responsible for 8 or our 9 wins. What folks do not get about that, is beyond me.

The man is a warrior. He has been injured, and played injured, most of the year, all year.

And if we are even close to the playoffs, its because of his play.

Is he perfect? No. Does he have B. Favre moments? Yes. But for the love of God. Give the man his due.

Go Cowboys!!!
