The players don’t like nolan and or MM. they are used to running the team. They gave up on JG. We thought it was JUST the HC. But it was players. And more important it’s the so called leaders. They got paid and like the comfy atmosphere. When a new HC or staff comes in and wants to teach or do something they don’t want to do this is how they respond. This is a GM/Owner problem. Maybe the DC and some players need to go.

Just shuffling chairs on the titanic...and w’ere all going down with Jerry. Except he’s going down wealthy, drunk and happy while the rest of us slowly drown in misery.

We are just repeating what happened with Garrett. Many just blamed the players over and over but at the end of the day, while we had player issues, the coaches weren't all that good either.

McCarthy has burned through a lot of goodwill here but I don't have an issue with keeping him and staying on that course. Dak getting hurt really threw a wrench into this and I wonder if it would have been better for McCarthy to bring in his own OC. But then again, he brought in Nolan, which was a mistake, so it's possible he could have brought a boob in a OC too.

I don't have much of an issue with much of the staff right now. But Nolan has got to go, if not now, then in the offseason. He was the worst hire by far on the staff and he should not be anywhere near a defensive overhaul, which is something we desperately need. We will regret letting him mess up this defense beyond this season. I also wonder about Al Harris, as DBs coach.

I've not given up hope yet on the coaching staff, but history tells us it works best when we have a hard-nose coach in charge. I don't think McCarthy is like that

Listen I don’t have the best faith in Nolan.

All that being said.

There is no scheme that tells the DL to get pushed 5 yards off the line of scrimmage on running downs.

there is no scheme that tells the Lb to run around like a chicken with no head and then just run into OL and not shed them and get washed out.

there is no scheme that tells corners to get smoked.


There is no scheme that tells the DL to not get pressure and beat their man.



coaching issues may be why the defense isn’t very good. But coaching issues aren’t why this defense is on pace to be one of the worst in league history. That’s because guys aren’t doing the basics like beating blocks, and tackling well or covering their man.

if players were beating blocks and tackling well and the defense was still awful. Then we could ask if they’re being put in the best positions.

Really is a shame Jerry managed to run off another Hall of Fame coach, all so we could go from Wade Phillips to Jason Garrett to this mess.
