Wade Phillips' Get Tough Plan is in full effect. The most recent evidence: He privately and publicly called out the Cowboys for Tuesday's sloppy practice.
"We weren't ready to play yesterday, and I was disappointed in practice yesterday mentally." Phillips said at his Wednesday press conference. "We've addressed that."
Hey, for a guy who complained during a team meeting about the critical media coverage of the Cowboys' ugly win over the awful Bengals, that's an awfully strong statement.
It's at least a sign of some discipline, putting it on a list with yanking players for pre-snap practice penalties and maximum fines for being overweight.
We'll see what happens when Wade really has a situation that requires a strong hand, but he's at least paid more than lip service for his post-Philly Flop vow to be "more demanding, more whatever."
