The Dallas Cowboys have more problems than just Tony Romo being injured. The Cowboys have a team full of bad attitudes and selfish players. Josh Norman had Dez Bryant off his game from the first play. They were talking to each other before the first snap and when Romo through his first interception to Panthers defensive back Kurt Coleman that was returned for a touchdown, Dez Bryant stood face mask-to-face mask with Josh Norman jawing with him rather than try to chase the ball down. The announcers even caught that one. What they did not mention was the consummate Dallas Cowboys professional, tight end Jason Witten, loafing down the field after the ball and never really becoming involved in the play. He did not even attempt to tackle Coleman as he ran right by him.
The bad attitude starts with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. When the Cowboys released backup quarterback Brandon Weeden a few weeks ago, Jones took a few parting shots at Weeden and his inability to win games. The coaching staff developed an offensive game plan specific to Weeden skill set and it failed to produce results. I thought it was unprofessional of Jones for him to make comments like that. Who is Jones going to blame now? His "yes" man of a head coach Jason Garrett? The Doctors and training staff for not getting Romo more prepared? Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys reminds me of George Steinbrenner and the New York Yankees of the 1970's. The Yankees were extremely talented and often won in spite of themselves but the Cowboys can't even get it together well enough to do that.
