Cowboys StoryLine: Schotty vs. McCarthy?

This is the time to grade out the coaching performances and it starts with the head coach. The callers weighed in on Brian Schottenheimer's first year and compared it to Mike McCarthy, who coached the team the previous five seasons.

Where's the focus here in the last three games as the Cowboys could be eliminated from the playoffs even before they play again. Is the goal to win out or focus on playing younger guys, or maybe a combo of both?

The callers were holding out hope that maybe the Cowboys could make a final playoff push but after the Vikings loss, what is the plan now as we shift towards the final three games?

The debate raged on how this season will be categorized if they miss the playoffs. Even CeeDee and Dak weighed in, which created various opinions from the callers.

The defense has had issues but should the Cowboys make another change at the end of the season? Maybe the Cowboys would like to have some continuity instead of flipping coordinators for the third straight year.

Whether or not the Cowboys can make the playoffs, defining success and failure in Brian Schottenheimer's first season is up for debate … and it was definitely debated.

With four games to play, some might say there's plenty of season to be played but when it comes to making changes to the coaching staff and personnel, is it too late for all of that?

As we return from a much-needed break, the fans want to know what's up with special teams and why it hasn't been so special this year.

The Cowboys went to Motown on a roll but hit a huge bump in the road, leaving us all to wonder just what this loss means for the rest of the season with four games to play.

What a turnaround we've seen - not just with the Cowboys winning three straight games but the change in Matt Eberflus' perception. The DC has his players flying to the ball and the fans have noticed.

With the Cowboys on a 3-game winning streak and the Eagles now losing two straight, the NFC playoff picture not only has the Cowboys in the hunt but winning the division might be the best path.

In the final show of the week, the callers not only celebrated Thanksgiving Eve, but have some newfound confidence with Mahomes and the Chiefs coming to town.

All season long, the Cowboys have had to overcompensate for a struggling defense but are we now at the point where Brian Schottenheimer can start trusting the defense more?

The Cowboys have been everyone else's get-right-game this season so leave it to the Eagles to provide that type of bounce back for the Cowboys, who had their best win of the season in comeback fashion.

As we approach Thanksgiving, the Eagles present a mighty challenge on Sunday that begins quite a festive group of games that will tell us a lot about these Cowboys in the next few weeks.

We know the Eagles are going to Tush Push their way to the goal line but have the Cowboys added enough muscle up front to push back?

The callers couldn't be more excited about the addition of Quinnen Williams, who hasn't just helped the defense overnight but seems to be a fixture in the middle for the future, too.

The Cowboys had a huge win Monday night and George Pickens was one of the stars, prompting the question on if and when he's gonna get a new contract. Because it's clear, the Cowboys need him and his energy to succeed.

It's been a long week full of various topics - both on and off the field. The consensus among the callers suggest it's time to play football again and for the first time ever, the Cowboys will do that in Las Vegas.

As the Cowboys get ready to reveal a new-look defense against the Raiders, the callers want to know just who will start the game up front. Which four linemen will begin the game and just as important, which three linebackers?

Coming off the bye week, how different will this defense look against the Raiders? Whatever changes are made it seems to be much-needed for the Cowboys and their fading playoff hopes.

Another show where the callers show their unity for each other. We continue to grieve for Marshawn Kneeland and his family and friends while also remembering our vets on Veterans Day.

The show was undoubtedly difficult as we remember the life of Marshawn Kneeland with some of the callers sharing their own experiences and perspective.

The callers were super excited about the Quinnen Williams trade but does it help more for this year, the future or perhaps both?

After another loss where the defense struggled, and the offense wasn't much better, the Cowboys made at least one trade. Is it too late for this season?
