Big Nate says you can’t fire Wade

By dcfanatic, October 16, 2009 8:24 pm


Would you fire a head coach during the season? Would you have fired Wade if the Cowboys had lost to the Chiefs?

Here's Nate Newton on The Michael Irvin Show saying that you can't fire Wade now because it would send the rest of the season down the drain...

Big Nate agrees with Jerry about keeping Wade

I think we all know that I would have fired Wade within seconds after the Eagles loss last season.

And I could care less that the team beat the Chiefs I still would have fired Wade. Then I would have given Jason Garrett the interim position to see what he could do with this team for the rest of the season.

Do I think that would have led to a playoff berth? Probably not, but I don't really think the play of this team over the first five games inspires much confidence in me that this team will make the playoffs anyway.

I don't agree with firing Head Coaches during the Season, unless you have a proven guy on your staff you are high on and plan on giving him the job, no matter what happens.

 

[This is Our Year]

I agree with Nate Dog, I always laugh when people say Phillips should be fired if we lose to_______(blank). The idea of firing a coach in season just doesn't make that much sense and the odds of turing it around with an interm guy just isn't that likely. Or bringing in a new coach with a new scheme mid-season.

I have no issue with Wade being fired, heck I want the guy to be let go, but I won't happen until the offseason. Don't re-sign him that's for sure.

i say you wait till the cowboys are totally out of the playoffs, which will take about 5 more games played,

remember when everyone said last year that the eagles had no chance and you saw what they did

give wade the opportunity to see if he can turn it around;
1st reason for that, who would run the defense if you fire wade
2nd you send a wrong message when you change coaches to the players
3rd, granted i am like you DC in that i dont think wade is a head coach material, he waits to fix things, thats one of his biggest errors, i do think wade is a pretty good defensive coordinator, but he needs a head coach with fire that pushes wade to excel on defense
4th, till the cowboys are totally losing, and jerry jones is forced to see that he has done things his way now for 13 plus years, with him controling the 53 man roster and it hasnt worked. Jerry Jones has to see that first, then change can take place, but not until then.

honestly and realistically i dont see us having the talent to win it all, maybe get to the playoffs and win if certain things are done, like stricter accountability on coaches and players, tougher practices with intensity while working out in pads, just like emmit smith said the other night on show with michael irvin.

these things have to be done first, before the cowboys can move forward.

then you can make head coaching changes if the cowboys cant make the playoffs this year

I love Nate, but keep in mind that a guy that once got busted with like 75 pounds of weed in his trunk has the same opinion on keeping Wade as y'all do... just saying

75 pounds?

Give the man his due respect.

It was 213 pounds. And then 175 pounds.

Newton said he stood to make $75K per drug deal

Associated Press


DALLAS -- Former Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Nate Newton says his competitive nature led him into the drug business.

"I've always been competitive, I've always been in sports," said Newton, a six-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman who retired after the 2000 season. "I couldn't see myself not being the biggest dope man."

Newton, 43, was released from a Louisiana prison last year on drug possession charges after serving about 2½ years behind bars.

Newton, of East Ellijay, Ga., estimated he stood to make up to $75,000 per drug deal, another reason he said running drugs appealed to him.

In November 2001, he and two women were pulled over for a traffic violation on Interstate 10 in St. Martin Parish, La. Newton and the others were accused of hauling 213 pounds of marijuana in their van with plans to sell it.

While out on bond six weeks later, Newton was arrested again, this time in Ellis County. He was accused of hauling 175 pounds of marijuana in the trunk of a car.

Newton made his comments Thursday during a talk show on Dallas radio station KKDA. He said he became remorseful while serving time in a federal prison in Texarkana, before he was transferred to a federal facility in
Louisiana.

"I got on my knees and said, 'God, I want to make a deal. ... You protect me in here, and when I come out, I'll do everything I can to make it right,'" he said.

Its makes NO sense to fire a coach mid-season...

:laugh2: @ Patsy "stand by your man"... Nate is a hilarious!

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I agree. Let Wade finish what he started. You don't put Garrett in charge of this team. He has his hands full with the OFFENSE. That's enough for him to handle as it is. This team is going to score. I'm not worried about the offense. I'm worried about the defense and there's no one on this team right now that I trust in getting this defense to one of the best in the league than I do Wade. No one. Not Campo not Garrett not no one but Wade. Will he do it? Probably not. But there isn't a better alternative as of right now and say what you want about the guy but he knows how to coach defense. You have to remember that this isn't the same defense that Wade had last season. He has rookie corners and linebackers he's trying to develop. Maybe we haven't seen the best of this defense yet.

Jeebus thats a lot of grass. It musta been bailed like wet alfalfa, or else the whole van was crammed full.

Jerruh must of scored some of it before he decided to bring Wade back this season.

thats what i like about Nate, he admitted his error and let God do the rest. Sometimes God will allow you to do things and get yourself in trouble, and God can be rough when he needs to. But Nate has tried to make it right ever since then. That to me is the difference.

Nate knows football, i will always trust a pro bowl player that played the game with heart and intensity. They know what they see on the field, since they have played the game, been in those tough spots, etc.
