What do you want to know?

That is just it, Owen has not shown himself as a playmaker, when Dallas has needed the big play in clutch time it has not been Owens getting the job done it has been others making the big plays. I know many will point to his stats but a lot of those stats have come in less than meaningful situations. This is not Irvin who when this team needed some one to step up he did so. Evidently unless we force the ball to Owens early he is worthless late in games pretty much using his own words. I expect Owens to adjust to this what this offense does not have 10 others adjust to Owens.

True.

Besides the Atlanta game, I struggle to remember too many other important games where he had a major impact.

A case could possibly be made that he is one of the highest paid decoys in the NFL. Personally, though I loathe the guy, this team is alot better with him than without him.

Not the case all the time, but the opposition does fear Me-Owens, scheme and account for him and often times double him.

Again, besides LTN, I probably dislike this guy the most but I just dont see how the blame for another meltdown at the end of the year can be placed at this guys' feet.

He is an easy out and scapegoat. He is an easy target because he is one guy and you can get rid of him easy enough. But if you point the finger at what I believe to be the real problem, Parcells and the Coaching staff, well that opens up a whole can of worms and is a more complicated problem because they are not as easy to replace/fix.

I'm not blaming TO any of the loses we have had or the so called melt down we have seen recently or problems that others players are having.

When are you going to retire :D
:laugh2:

Seriously, any of these Xs and Os questions, Parcells is not going to answer.

Why are our blitzes so obvious? -- Dunno, that's not the way the guys are taught. (Or, that's another example of why blitzing isn't always good like the layman thinks.)

What aren't the guys motivated? -- Again, that's where our inexperience shows. Some of these young guys don't get it yet.

What did you think about Owens'/Jerry's/Newman's/Player X's comments? -- I didn't hear those, so I can't comment on them.

Etc.
 
Are you disappointed by this loss?

Did you have braciole with your Christmas dinner?

What's your overall coaching philosophy in handling a loss like this?

How would the 1991 NY Giants have handled this loss?

Which players on the 1993 NE Patriots are most like the players on your team today?

What did the 1999 NY Jets do differently in December than your current team?

How did TO's post-game comments make you feel inside?

Are you more comfortable with Grammatica after this game, or would you rather have Vanderjagt back?

Did any of your former players call you this week? What did they say? How did they make you feel? Did you get any letters from them? Any presents? Did Tony LaRussa call?

Does a loss like this give a coach like you pause to contemplate something similar to a situation like a retirement?

What does a game like this do to Tony Romo's psyche? Does it damage his id or his super-ego more? Did you start him too soon?

How has the role of the Tight End changed since the early sixties?

What do voluntary mean?
 
With your time in Dallas, you have always failed to end the season strong. Why is that? Has it got to do with players' conditioning, or sucky coaching?

Why do you fail to get your team motivated in a game that matters most?

Aside from 2003, these teams have been largely underachieving. Why?

You switched to the 3-4 defense. Despite that switch, we are getting NO pass rush. How do you expect to fix that?

It's hard to believe that our players are the sole reason for the poor defense. Do you plan to make a chance in scheme?
