    100% agree but I will also say that I believe Kiffin has improved as an offensive coach. He still makes some bad calls at times but I think he's a good coach.

    I don't think anybody is debating if we have the right guy. He's definitely done well enough here to prove that. But he also has the ability to improve and adapt and become better than yesterday.

    Kiffin's biggest weakness is his arrogance. Rather than admit bad decisions, he doubles down, determined to prove he's ultimately right. That leads to continuing bad coaching decisions.

    The Cowboys right now are putting on a clinic on how to handle pressure when you're working with second string offensive lineman,. Look at the amount of screens and quick throws.

    As Dak says, pressure is only pressure when there's no plan.

    That was the best quote of the game. Dead on.

    He's a much better coach these days. Age and experience.

    Agree 100%. It drove me crazy watching his play calling at Bama when they would play ole miss.

    I think "most" of us expected to lose Saturday night. The performance gave pause to accept that he is the right guy with respect to starting 4-0 and finishing 5-7 or 4-8. Those results would indicate He cannot prepare the team on HOW to beat a couple of teams on the schedule that are more closely aligned to our talent level.

    I've seen some say you can't hold last year against him! Bull Crap. Did we hold 2023 against Our former D-coordinator? Have we continue to "blame" our DEAD HC for the past 2 seasons? Then heck YES! We can hold Lebby accountable for 2024's debacle.

    He has to make some offensive adjustments before the Florida game if we are to have a chance at winning.
    Short quick passes to the RB's similar to Leach's system. Lots of RTDGFB along with those short passes. Then take your shots downfield.
    Also I would love to see Kamario get a few possessions in some situations other than inside the 5 yard line. That's just too predictable. That might help get the D off balance a little bit.
