You cant teach discipline play, it is a result of attitude

MM is never going to be more than he is...he may study various offensive schemes and get creative but time mgt and player penalties will never improve unless we can get an assistant to be the bad guy

This is taken care of in practice...especially training camp. You play the way you practice. Keep doing reps until it is automatic and second nature. Most of these penalties were just stupid and dumb mistakes, holding and presnap.

MM isn't going anywhere. I'm happy with Stephen's decision. You have to give a HC a chance. Garrett was here for a decade. What'd he give Dallas? At best, a handful of 8-8 seasons. Big Mac started in a pandemic & had to use what he had & still gave Dallas 6 wins. Only to follow with a 12-5 playoff birth the following. Give the man a chance & stop complaining until you walked in his shoes.

Stephen is a dotard playing with Daddy’s money.

Just to nitpick, Garrett did much better than a handful of 8-8 seasons in his decade. He tied for the best season record ever by any Cowboys team and had a first round bye. He was a huge improvement and the best coach since Johnson. He wasn’t good enough to get us any further. He had reached his best, and it wasn’t good enough.
What a pile of garbage.

When you become complacent with your profession; sleepwalking through practice, not focusing on details, ignoring technique, slacking with your preparation and not holding yourself accountable, things can unravel pretty quickly.

The Cowboys players have it nice in that country club atmosphere up there in Frisco. The facilities are probably best in the league, maybe all of sports, and the team never deals with the elements. Didn't McCarthy state back in December that they moved toward more remote meetings and less practice? Yea, that may work when your playing the NFCE, but they sure stubbed their toes vs. the Cardinals and 49ers.

The games are won during the week, but it appears possible the Cowboys don't show up to work until Sunday.
