Inside The Star's Cody Warren argues that Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer has failed to correct recurring mistakes and is falling behind the rest of the NFL. Warren highlights that Dallas holds a 9-13-1 record under Schottenheimer, including a 3-8 stretch since Thanksgiving, while sharply criticizing his offensive play-calling, clock management, and lack of tactical adjustments.
