This post should be bannable offense.
He does say its a longshot. Let him dream.

Totally agree with this.
You bet he would. Belechek is the GOAT and one of the few people Jerry would have no issue differing too.
Maybe one of the only people on the planet whos judgment he trust over his own. Although I think JJ concedes more than we know these days.
Belichek would take one look at the prima donnas in this locker room and say - NOPE!
Na, he'd shape them up or ship them out. BB has dealt with plenty of the like and they have fallen in line.
Its a long shot, but I think it's a real possibility.
My thought process exactlyHe stuck with Garret b/c by all accounts Jason Garret is really impressive in meetings and interviews. I think JG talked his way into this job and has been selling Jerry on what ails the cowboys ever since.......always pointing the finger away from himself. This year is just the perfect storm b/c Jason had all the pieces and couldn't do anything with it. No major injuries to blame............ Jerry is realizing its been 10 years and his team is 6-6. Jerry is also realizing he's 77 and doesn't have the time nor the inclination to get involved in a rebuild. He's got no choice but to hire a big name with a track record players respect. It makes perfect sense.
Jerry is unpredictable , so no one really knows whats going to happen.I've thought this whole year that Garrett would move into the front office after this season no matter what. Its a better fit for him and it will be more money for less hours on the job.
If that really was the plan, Jerry (and the rest of the FO) are the type to lay the groundwork way ahead of time. Talking to mutual friends, wink and nod conversations with agents, etc.
I think Broaddus is right in that he is hearing Jerry is loading up a huge move on the next HC, not a flavor of the month assistant. It could be someone like Belichick or one of college guys like Saban or Meyer, but it will take a huge financial move to make that happen. And Jerry isn't afraid to do that, he never has.
Your entire narrative is that Jerry only hires yes men. He clearly has hired people that will stand up to and counter him.
Wade convinced Jerry that Alan Ball was sufficient at S as well as the horrid CB situation. Garrett got the club to start heavily and repeatedly investing top 100 picks in OL and DL. Heck, he even let Chan Gailey convince him to pass on Randy Moss for Greg Ellis.
This notion that Jerry only listens to himself is just ignorant. The problem is when he listens to buffoons like Lacewell and Phillips.
TruthThere is no source. The patriots do not confirm coaching contracts and nobody talks. Everybody who follows the NFL knows this ...........so we are left to infer from things we do know..........like it makes no sense that he would paint himself into a corner with a long term deal with no outs given that he has all the leverage in that relationship. We also know Josh McDaniels changed his mind at the last moment about being the Colts HC so he could return to being NE's OC...........hmmmmm why would he do that........
Not smoking or drinking, just hoping for a HC that can maximize our talent, would that not be sweet?I’ll take some of what you’re smoking. Oh yeeeeeah take me to another universe
Thanks for commenting Prime, you are one of my favorite posters here.I’ll take some of what you’re smoking. Oh yeeeeeah take me to another universe
Man, you are right on the money with your comments on this situation....Jerry was a younger man in 2003. Don't underestimate the effect of age on a man's view of the world and his place in it. Jerry's got his gold jacket and all the money he could ever want or require. The one thing he can't buy is a super bowl and its the only things left for him to accomplish. Firing JG won't be done easilly or for no good reason. The next hire won't be a freshly minted HC.
why having hope and wish list isnt a bannable offense.. its insane to think hed come here but never say its totally out of the realm of possiblitys..This post should be bannable offense.
You know you guys should just cool it.I just can’t sigh harder when I see these
You know you guys should just cool it.
