Cowboys All or Nothing

This show is a failure for the reason you point out; viewers are getting no context of how the NFL is about schemes and game-planning.  Our coaches walk around preaching effort and execution leaving the viewers with a false impression of what it takes to win.  We're getting no view of the game-planning and the review of the failed game-plans.

I agree Garrett is worse than we thought.  Princeton-educated but clueless.  He's like a caricature preaching character and accountability but holding no one accountable (except the practice squad that he ripped for 10 minutes).  He is 100% rooted in that culture of believing only in the tried and true, old school tactics, tired thoughts.  I just don't understand why Jerry and Stephen don't see it.  I guess the reason may be that they won 3 Super Bowls running the lead-draw to Emmitt Smith 25 times a game 25 years ago.

I also agree that Elliott is a low-character dude who I hate to rely on - even though he has the goods.  Dez, no surprise.  Witten, no surprise.  Really the show is pretty boring and disappointing.  They show off the Cowboys shiny facilities and Jerry's helicopter a lot.  Unfortunately not a lot to see.
