Cowboys interim coach Jason Garrett will take a hard-line approach with the team over the remainder of the season. "One of the things that you have to guard against is having too much sympathy for the players," Garrett said. "It's hard, and it's going to be hard. It's a long season, and we know that. The best players know that. You've got to fight through some things. "Practices are supposed to be hard. The seasons are supposed to be hard. But if you work at it and you improve individually and as a group, you have a great chance of having success on Sunday." Garrett is 1-0 as head coach since replacing Wade Phillips.
