Meyer and he keeps Kellen as OC.
There will be endless speculation but who do you think will be the Head Coach of the Cowboys in 2020?
My call: Urban Meyer

Does it really matter? Do you really think these players are comfortable and not accountable because of the HC or his staff?
The single dumbest thing ever written on any of these sites was Camp Cupcake and attributing that to Wade Phillips.
No new HC solves the real problem with this team. Only death has the chance to do that.
Unfortunately, probably someone from his current staff. I wouldn’t mind Harbaugh if he gets to make all the coaching decisions. However, I wouldn’t even try to guess what Jerry is gonna do and I’m sure I’ll be disappointed considering the last 20 something years. I just wish for a coach that is a true winnerDoes it really matter? Do you really think these players are comfortable and not accountable because of the HC or his staff?

Good post, makes alot of sense. I hear names thrown around out there that intrigue me like Meyer and Riley but, to your point, they may be looking at someone with a proven NFL track record, especially with playoff success.
If we go with a former head coach in the NFL, there are a few guys out there that could be a potential fit. Kubiak and McCarthy for example, may be fits here. I know McCarthy had Rogers and won a SB but many thought he should have won more, and they are probably right. The only thing I would say is alot of coaches out there, probably most, could have done better or wish they won more in there time.
I'm not advocating for McCarthy, Kubiak, Rivera, and anyone really but just want to point out that a previous failure or limited success doesnt mean they cant do better now.
I'm open to alot of the names we have heard, college included like Riley and Meyer. I just hope whoever comes here can bring their own assistants and get things going in the right direction.
Jerry likes Jeff Fisher.

Any big name proven HC really. Urban Meyer would be a great choice, I want a proven HC who wants to do things his way. I want Jerry to step aside and let that happen. Jerry can keep his GM title as long as Jerry is not actually doing the work of the GM. I would perfer Jerry and the HC to not even speak to each other during the season.
Something I think we have to consider, Jerry and Stephen don't see Jason as bad of a coach as many fans ( most fans saying they'll take ANYONE over Garrett). In fact, in their mind, he's a damn good coach. So if this is your thinking and you're looking to replace him, you obviously want someone with a better record. The fact Jerry recently pointed out ( w/o being asked) the lack of success by college coaches in NFL tells me it's not something he just pulled out of nowhere but something he and Stephen have already discussed. Probably not in the context of replacing Jason but in general. Either it's big with them IMO. Just me, but this tells all college coaches w/o NFL experience have a steep hill to climb. They have to prove they can not only match Garrett winning regular-season record but succeed his post-season record as well WITHOUT any skin on the wall or proven track record.
The bottom line, if I'm hiring to replace Jason, I don't need a coach who can win regular-season games. Hell, Garrett was pretty good at that. My vet team is in a win-now mode. I need a guy with a proven playoff record. If you go back look at Jason's tenure, with the exception of one season, he had this team in a position to make the playoffs by the end of the season every year. IMO this the floor/starting point for my next hire. This is why I believe the next guy will have a strong NFL post-season record, maybe Super Bowl attached to his resume. I see......
Mike McCarthy
Gary Kubiak
Matt Eberflus or Dan Campbell.
But that's if Red is truly let go, and that's not over until it's over. The Eagles still aren't very good and can still screw this up.
Kubiak apparently retired because of serious heart issues, it's a reason why he is reduced to only " offensive consultant " and not OC or a bigger role,.
Coaches tend to work an incredible amount of working hours and as much as 16+ hours days or even overnight. That would be quite a toll on someone with pending health/heart conditions, among other overall overseer.
Maybe certain people's health issues different as some like Bruce Arians has overcome his conditions to return to full time HC coaching ..and some may not be ready or equipped yet for that kind of role.
Would the questions of health issues that supposedly forced Meyer to retire be answered upon his return ?
i'd be concerned that MCarthy is not the HC that you want if you have a zeke elliott and want to get back ( and keep) to utiliziing a smash mouth physical run the ball mode, We cannot keep this abdandon the run mentality with coaches too infatuated with pass- pass.
He'll be immediately popular and will get interview early because of his SB winner resume and career body of work with Aaron Rodgers -
He is another great X's and O's pass designer and suitable game manager, though i think McCarthy was a one track pony that kept his sight on the offense only and let his DC's ala Don Capers just continue to collapse that team chances of winning the big ones down the stretch,
Thats also the sole concern i have with a Lincoln Riley BTW.

He would be a good hire, but only way that works is if he's allowed to make his own staff changes.Marinelli MUST GO. Kubiak and Richard as DC may be an interesting combo. MCcarthy and Richard as DC would be another interesting thing.Kubiak is apparently confident in his health. He was going to be the Bronco's OC last year until but he and new HC couldn't agree on the direction of the offense. I take that as he's past the health issues. But you're right it's concern he's going to have to address with any potential team before he gets another shot as HC.
IF his health checks out ........what are your thoughts on him as Jason replacement?
