What is your pet peeve when it comes to the Cowboys?

avaj

Mine is when the defensive allow to much time for the quarterback, when they can read a newspaper they have so much time....that drives me crazy

It doesn't happen often but when it does :mad:

Well, besides losing, it would have to going for a running play on 2nd and 10.

I have seen this way too much this year and I can't remember the last time we got good yardage with this call.

1. Snapping the ball with :01 on the play-clock.
2. Lack of pressure
3. How slow they call in plays on hurry-up sometimes.
4. Constantly giving up a big kick-off return after we've made an incredible score.

penalties....especially the offensive ones that take away 1st downs or scores......and the defensive ones that we commit on 3rd down and allow drives to continue.

ineptitude on special teams. Jerry isn't afraid to spend money........I say he needs to go up VaTech and woo their STC/DC away. VaTech has had one of the top 3 ST in the nation for over a decade. Texas, IMO has had the top ST in the nation, but I want Jerruh to keep his greedy paws off any Longhorns assistants, hehehehe. Anyway, the VaTech guy could turn our ST into an aggressive, attacking, proactive STs, instead of the Read soft, reactive ST.

VaTech's head coach is the ST coach.

Beamer? I know he oversees it.....but Foster also works on STs coordination. Also, Foster is an excellent DC, but he runs a 4-3.

Didn't Mike Stoopes run the ST at OU before he moved to Arizona? I remember in the early part of this decade, OU had some pretty good ST units.

The wr cushions
Allowing the player to fall forward on a tackle
Running pass patterns short of the 1st on 3rd down
Not wrapping up on tackles


Just a few off the top of my head

my pet peeve with them is the fact their's like 7 1st round draft picks on the defense and we still have a crappy defense.
