MM is the best HC we've had since JJ and that's including Parcels that was just collecting a paycheck......I don't get the hate! All coaches make bad calls from time to time. But he has our team ready to play every week. I appreciate MM and think he is doing a great job.

Okay, but that's not saying much.

If you bar is "just be better than Jason Garrett, Wade Phillips, and Dave Campo" then your bar is way too low.

You should expect MUCH better than those guys.

Jason Garrett had rookie Dak and Zeke sitting at 5-1 through 6 weeks, but MM is some kind of genius for having Dak and Zeke in their primes at 5-1 through 6 weeks? Again, expect better.

All I can say is that last year he was well camouflaged.

I don't hate MM but I am not all that excited either. We all know who the head coach is and he's been the HC since JJ left.

I hear ya sweetie. Same hater's switched from Dak to MM. Probably the same ones who wanted the great Urban Meyers running the show too. MM has these players very explosive. Unbelievable difference from that Garrett era.

Did I say he was a genius, genius? Garrett sucked and he still does....keep bobbing and slobbing on him

He has built a close knit locker room, one of my former teammates is a scout for the Cowboys and he feels that he has built a great environment....
slow sneaky culture change. We didnt get to see it last year with that debacle of no off season and all the injuries' but its showing now..

the player believe no matter the situation we should win..they all believe in each other and the coaches and are buying in, if thats not the HC , not sure how your answer can be any different.

You have to realize most of these people don't know the role of a head coach. They just think they stand on the sideline and try to find the clock. They don't realize he has to create the practice schedule, the drills, the training, meetings, etc. You will never convince these people because they go by talking points. Everyone repeats what they heard on tv or someone else.

He's certainly been instrumental in turning this franchise around. Some are saying he's even worse than Garrett. Shows how stupid some Cowboys fans really are.

The comments about him being "dumb" are just comical.

I've listened to pretty much every one of this guy's pressers and interviews this season.
This is not a remotely stupid man.
He seems to have a grasp of all angles of the job--personnel on both sides of the ball, opponent-specific game-planning (imagine that!), intra-game adjustments.....the whole deal.


I won't comment on some of the in-game clock management. If he messes it up, I can tell you, it's not because he has a low IQ.

:laugh:

This may sound crazy, but I think there might be people so unimaginably shallow that they think because he's heavy he's somehow not bright.
Maybe I'm wrong. Talk about ironic....as that bias would be the very definition of "dumb"
