why is anything that isnt glowing and totally supportive categorized as "hate"?
Theres enough real hate around, people should find a different word
You haven’t been here long enough to understand. This place is toxic with haters. It got 10x worse when they shutdown the DC forum. They all came here and now we’re stuck with the same trash that was the reason DC was shutdown for.

It’s amazing. The thing hasn’t even happened yet and some people are already miserable and causing division and negativity about it.
I'm honestly hopeful we hire someone that will push the Front Office to upgrade the defensive talent AND have the command to demand better play from current players.

Just like I woke up last Sunday hoping we'd somehow sneak into the playoffs.

History has taught me to know better. I'm just dumb.

Don’t know what the hell you’re trying to say or prove. Maybe you’ll be one of those *****ing about whomever is hired I don’t know. But I stand by what I said. You’ve been here long enough to know what I said is the truth. Don’t believe me. Just wait until the hire and watch.
the problem is it just takes 1 out of 330 million to say they hate it and you'll be right

Does this guy sound any better than the so called “haters”?

(worth repeatin')

Which BTW, frankly it's been 3 DC choices I've really been pondering as a possibility for Cowboys as new DC:
1 Gus Bradley
2 Dan Quinn
3 George Edwards

All 4-3 scheme guys, all 3 have been top 10 DCs at some point in past 10 years; ..and I could be on board with retained Edwards " IF" he is allowed to bring in his own staff, and he
doesn't return these current coaches of Tomsula, Harris

There is some buzz around the net, that Dan Quinn could be a favorite to land the job.

GORICO 5 star platinum gurantee that we field a bottom 10 defense in the league in 2021 regardless of who the coach (*cough puppet) is

I dont agree with the firing i think a hybrid defense is a good scheme. These players suck more than nolan did. I at least give him another season to bring in some guys that arent rejects. And allow him to run his scheme. Country club atmosphere allowed these players to cry it was too hard to learn.

I believe it was a combination of Nolan failing and the players not being good enough overall. I don't think it's good to change schemes year to year, but I also can't see the Joneses giving him much more talent to work with next year since they don't make good use of free agency. For that reason, I'm OK with bringing in the next guy and seeing if he can do better. Can't really do much worse.
