Listening to Jerry talk over the course of the season, combined with other reports here’s how I see McDaniels as the top person on Jerry’s list

1) During the lead up to the first Eagles game Jerry talked about how it was important this offense had maximum flexibility and either be able to throw it 50 times or run it 50 times. That’s the staple for what McDaniels shape shifting has done with NE

2) Jerry went almost overboard when praising the NE coaches after our game. How they were in great position to succeed.

3) He said that college coaches take time to get up to speed on the NFL game whereas current NFL coaches have a feel for it. This is in line with Jerry’s mantra of urgency over the last 2 years ever since Bob McNair passed away. Jerry and Bob were close and Jerry seems to not want to have any more “development years”.

Now will he be able to get McDaniels? I doubt it. I think he’s fine staying in NE until Belichick retires. For those who think Jerry is referring to Belichick himself, what does he gain by giving up where he has all control and 6 sure wins a year in the AFC East to come down here? Yes TB12 May retire but why wouldn’t he retire with him?

Well if he did go this way he could bring Eberflus here to be his DC if Indy would let him out of his contract....not that they would do McDaniels any favors.

I don’t think it matters. McDaniels, Meyer, whomever.

who’s the voice of the franchise, setting culture, and who’s selecting the players?

Not sure about this ......at all. Just me but I don't trust any coach coming from the Pats. Just too hard to tell what's real or if they rode Brady or Belichick coattail......

Do current coordinators that aren't fired ever leave their posts to make a lateral move?
I don't see Eberflus leaving Indy unless its a HC job.

Horrible idea. Jerry needs another Jimmy hire. But he won't do it, because Jimmy got too much attention last time.

Signing McDaniels as HC and resigning Dak is the biggest nightmare any Cowboys fan should have looking into the future. That would be a very bleak future. That’s worst case scenario.

Dont want.

Honestly, firing Marinelli and KQuinn will fix most of the problems.

Jerry doesnt have to fire Jason. His contract is done.
