Who is coaching us next year if Garrett is out

[JeffG]

If the year ends in a deep playoff run that makes Jerry feel like next year is our year, Garrett stays.

Otherwise, Garrett is gone.

He will not be fired until we are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, or lose early in the playoffs.

He will be replaced unless the team makes a NFC championship run, not a doubt in my mind. 100 to 1 odds its before the cowboys are eliminated from playoff contention.

 

[Risen Star]

70/30 he will be replaced.

 

[Big_D]

He better be.

Yes but Jimmy Johnson & Tom Coughlin did ok

yes, about 20+ years ago. recent trend hasnt' bode well. and my point is that neither of them saw success early on...it took them several years to learn. specially coughlin who was let go from his first gig in Jax.

so do we want to give these coaches, 3, 4, or 5 years to learn? and that is if they learn....most of them fail than succeed. including some great ones like spurrier, saban, Kelly, etc.

and I know some one will bring up switzer, but lets not forget switzer came into a situation with a team that won 2 superbowls and most of the coaching staff was NFL coaches and they were the same coaches who coached under Johnson, running the same system. switzer was literally definition of a figure head.

I still want Mike McCarthy. His resume is the most appealing.

I like him. in the NFL its rare to get a coach like bilicheck that stays so long and doesn't wear out his welcome...and Rodgers ain't exactly easy to get along with

 

[cityochamps]

as far as I'm concerned if he doesn't take us at least to the NFC Champ Game he should be chucked!

 

[Rayman70]

not Garrett.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Please don't forget Jimmy Johnson had never coached in the NFL either. The results of taking a chance on him paid off BIG TIME!

yes, and how many college coaches failed? and Johnson took several years to succeed as he had to rebuild the team....any coach coming here is expected to succeed almost immediately. totally different situations.

and lets not forget that's almost 30 years ago now.....that's three decades....totally different era.

It’s Richard. My reasoning is they like Moore as OC....hire Richard and you keep Moore as OC and keep Richard as DC by making him head coach. They will hire from within.

If you want to get rid of the existing culture of this team, you bring in a HC from outside and you let him decide who to keep or let go.

Jerry does everything backwards. He hires the coaching staff and force feeds them to his new HC. That's a recipe for failure and is telling a new HC you don't trust him before he even begins.

What Jerry does during a new hire will be very telling. No respectable coach will come here if Jerry picks and chooses his staff. Enough already Jerry, your way hasn't worked since Jimmy left...

Saban is a good college coach too, but he failed in the NFL

I like him, but he would want total control...Carroll failed his first time around in the NFL as well. and he sharpened and honed his skills at USC. won a couple of championships and moved back to the NFL.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

I think Greg Roman should be in the mix. He has done well in two organizations and at the very least, you know you are going to get creativity.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

1. Lincoln Riley, assuming he hires a proven NFL DC.
2. Urban Meyer
3. Mike Zimmer, if fired in Minnesota.

Under-the-radar choices:
Mike McDaniel, 49ers OC
Matt Campbell, Iowa State HC

Super under-the-radar choice:
Joe Brady, LSU assistant
Dave Canales, Seahawks assistant
*both these guys would be ideal OC candidates

I know Jerry's history is promoting from within and hiring unthreatening coaches but this is a critical period for this franchise. This hiring is extremely important and needs to be an external hire.

I think I pass on all of them, except maybe zimmer and maybe, maybe mcDaniel

 

[Rayman70]

Lincoln Riley is my first choice.
One dark-horse candidate thrown out is Dan Campbell, Saints TE Coach/Assistant Head OC and HC. Not my first choice but not opposed either.
Has HC experience (Dolphins interim), former Cowboy player, native Texan, has had a lot of success in NO. In addition to reloading Brees's arsenal of weapons (Thomas, Kamara), I'd give the assistant coaching staff a lot of credit. Been there since 2016, the last year of their 4/5 seasons of the 7-9 cycle (did include one 11-5 WC playoff berth). Added bonus of (likely) hurting the Saints, HATE that franchise and their fans. Cowboys really shouldn't have much of a reason to hate them, but I guess it's a regional/bragging rights thing.

ok..why? WHY is he your first choice? I wanna satisfy my own curiosity. What makes him more fundamentally sound than the red nightmare? I live in Texas and seen a ton of OU games...and he hasn't been that great . He doesn't seem to value a good defense. THAT is scary. I am not understanding the cult-like love this guy is getting. PLEASE EXPLAIN...no offense is meant. I wanna but into the idea..But just can't yet.

 

[CWR]

Yes. He will make the playoffs but we wont advantace past the divisional round, if we even get past the wildcard round.

Ive seen this story too many times to think we fold, that said Garrett has hit his ceiling.

 

[Silly]

Is there an over/under on this? Do you think he will be replaced? By who?

No Dallas will win the division and finish 11&5. He will be extended.

 

[Hennessy_King]

Jim Harbaugh, Urban Meyer, Lincoln Riley

Yes he gets replaced
