A couple of interesting nuggets on Ebertflus and the D

[CT Dal Fan]

I hope Wash doesn’t fire Quinn after this years debacle . I could see Jerry wanting him back to find more Marquise Bell gems .

Quinn is/was a better DC than head coach. If he was here instead of Eberflus Dallas would be a nine win team right now, minimum.

 

[StarW]

He is worse than all of them.


Others numbers may be worse, but he is horrific.

Can you imaging how bad Everfools defense would look if our offense wasn't sustaining drives and scoring 30 a game? Nolan would look like Vic Fangio compared to this defense.

I agree I also want to add that in hindsight and I realize that's what we're looking at here I probably would have preferred they try to do everything they could to keep Mike Zimmer when he got his healthy players back and even though the overall rankings for the year were bad last year I believe the last half of the year the Cowboys led the league in sacks and turnovers even for the whole year they at least had some kind of identity instead of a coach who's unwilling to even want to change his defense on a consistent basis to help his roster versus force a scheme On the roster they can't run it efficiently..

That's the worst part of Matt Eberflu's he just doesn't seem to care like he's like we're running out my stuff Or or I don't care if we lose.

That is the one thing I'm shocked about is typically you can get a coordinator that has a scheme he loves to run but gets to a place and goes you know what not to be able to do that let's go ahead with multiples let's run a scheme hybrid let's try to create an identity somehow make the best of the roster and he just doesn't care this man has basically checked out I don't even know how Jerrys giving him any kind of public vote of confidence like hey he still might keep his job no this guys gone after that Lions game that was all I needed to see we already knew it before then but that pretty much sealed it he should not be back next year in any way shape or form because this man just doesn't care about his job anymore...

We talk about a guy like Pickens maybe has a couple games where he seems lazy he's loafing kind of checks out a little bit mentally that's what we got all year from our DC and somehow he has a thread of hope of being here next year... .

I’m not in favor of bringing him back under any circumstances. Too many other capable coaches if he would delegate a search .

Like Marienelli........flus is a jerry boy and is part of the good 'ole boys club.......he'll be back over and over.....

 

[StarW]

I agree. But maybe tied for worst DC hire with Mike Nolan in 2020. It sounds unbelievable but Eberflus' defense is statistically much better than the Nolan disaster.

Yeah, but it's a little misleading, since our offense sustains drives and eats clock a little better.

Also, teams can't run up the middle on 75% of their downs on QW. Since the trade, teams are having to run outside on us or we'd look considerably worse. Under Nolan, you could run right up the middle all day.

It's the pass defense that's lacking now, but our DTs are masking alot of Eberfool's scheme's warts.

I agree he's a better defensive coordinator but in my opinion Parsons made his defense look a lot better than people realize.

Quinn just need QW plugging up the middle, and we'd of balled. We've been struggling at DT for years, and he had to work with what we had on the roster. I bet he'd help EZE and Clowney get home more than Flus has with his ability to scheme the pass rush.

No NFL team has given up 500 or more points and made the playoffs.

We are currently on pace for 510.

A couple of interesting nuggets on Ebertflus and the D​

I have not paid close attention to the thread title until just now. Is that a typo? Or is the defensive coordinator reviewing movies too?

That's fine, because the playoff hopes technically ended over a month ago when this team let Jacoby Brissett and the Cardinals walk all over them at home.

Yeah, I guess that's also the title to Eberflus OF channel? I wouldn't know.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

This is bad.......I don't see any way Jerry can bring him





This is embarrassing......Wilson and Fields were benched, and McCarthy is the lowest-rated QB in the league and Caleb is average.

The problem with the first one is the reason he was available as a DC is because he had no clue how to beat the Packers, Vikings and Lions when he was the HC of the Bears. It's what got him fired.

 

[TwentyOne]

This is bad.......I don't see any way Jerry can bring gim back.

But then everything i read and hear is that Jerry thinks he cant change coordinators every season. He now thinks its better to have continuity.

Changing schemes and the need of dofferent players therefore is not good. a team does not have so many resources to build a whole new defense just because the new dc has a different demand of players.

 

[Aven8]

Stated this fact several times on here.

Btw he’s still on the hook with the Bears through 2026 at around $4.5 million per year. Dude is coasting folks

If your GM has no interest in building up the defensive roster, and he hasn't for decades, then what difference does it make?

watch this clown play soft *** coverage and send no pressure these next 3 weeks.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Worst dc hire in Cowboys history


This foolish owner just cant get over his propensity of hiring coaches hes familiar with. I also dont think its going to get much better with whomever they bring in next. The best DCs are going to want to be paid, and jerry doesnt like paying coaches. Its why they allowed Saleh to go to San Fran

Yea it wasn’t a very inspired choice was it

 

[doomsday808]

We are the "get right" team this year.

 

[charron]

It does not matter unless Schotty is allowed to bring in a guy he wants that is completely different from the Kiffen bend but don't break crap tree. Different coach but same junk scheme nets the same results.
