[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 723949, member: 12283"] I don't know about that. The Cowboys met or exceeded their season averages in total yards (440), passing yards (302), YPA (7.9), YPC (5.75), and points (31). The only major stat that was down for them compared to their season average was total rushing yards, and Zeke still rumbled for 125. Capers was leaving the defense in nickel against 6 OL looks. The only reason the Packers actually won that game was because of an absolutely amazing throw and catch on 3rd and 20. Look, I'm not trying to be sensational here. I don't think the guy's a buffoon or that he's secretly got All-Pro's all over the place that he's messing up. But I do think that he's a system guy. He runs a very complex scheme and he isn't especially adaptable to the talent that's available to him. If you give him all the parts for his defense, he'll make it go. But if he has to make due with less than ideal pieces, he's unlikely to thrive. He reminds me of a defensive Norv Turner. Turner's offenses could lead the league in San Diego when he had the personnel he wanted. But when deficiencies cropped up, he was terrible at adjusting to the weaknesses and elevating the play of the unit. When Mike McCoy and Ken Whisenhunt took over in 2013, the offense went from 20th in points to 12th without major changes in the personnel. They just did a better job of coaching around the weaknesses. I think he was the right coach at the right time back in 2010, but it's time to move on. [/QUOTE]
