for a long time jerry has hired the new HC from the existing staff , not always, but he likes having a guy on staff ready to step into the HC role.

He wanted dan to stay, so that means he wants him as DC, but also ready to step into HC role when jerry decides to dump mike.

I dont think jones boys care for the interview process, they dont do much of that.

Just hire a asst coach,dc or oc , and have them stand by for the promotion.

Well this is good for not looking over a shoulder and trust :rolleyes:. What could go wrong

MOBILE, Ala. — Mike McCarthy will coach the Dallas Cowboys in 2022.

But Dallas’ defensive coordinator could also thrive in the team’s top role, Jerry Jones says. Does Jones consider Dan Quinn a potential future head coach for the Cowboys?

"He’s certainly qualified," Jones said Wednesday from the hallway behind his stadium suite overlooking Senior Bowl practices. "He’s very qualified. Yes, I would consider. If I didn’t have a coach, I would have been interviewing him for coach."



"The facts are nobody worked harder to keep Dan here than Mike," Jones said. "That was the plan. That was the plan. Pure and simple. I’ve seen some people say, 'Well, what was the rationale behind that?' The rationale was that was a highly competitive way. I wanted them to be thinking that they were talking to a guy who could be head coach of the Cowboys.

"I wanted the aura to be friendly to Dan staying and turning down head coaching jobs. That’s my logic and I put my logic with anybody’s."


This is how Jerry has been running the team since Parcels left. The head coach is a figurehead. The OC and DC report to Jerry and answer to Jerry.

Dan Quinn basically has his own defensive fiefdom independent of the rest of the team. It was the same deal when Wade and JG were basically co-head coaches. Football dysfunction at its finest.
