## Resource

Dallas Cowboys OC Klayton Adams fires back at the notion that practice walkthroughs are to blame for the offensive line’s pad level issues, calling it a failure of player discipline—not coaching. He insists players, including practice squad members, must execute with professionalism during non-contact drills, as coaches have clear expectations. Adams points to other factors behind the struggles, especially after a brutal Giants game where the run game sputtered under four yards per carry without Pro Bowl guard Tyler Smith. While acknowledging poor play-calling early on, he highlights the line’s resilience and adjustments made. With Washington’s physical defense—bolstered by new edge rushers—on the horizon, Adams sees opportunity in the team’s preparation and return to full pads.
