Not sure why some feel Jerry would hire someone like BB to be HC. We all know BB is not the type he goes after. Someone who will not just overshadow him but overpower as well. I also wouldn’t want him though because TB is the one who brought him success. I wouldn’t mind if he took control of the defense, but I doubt he would want just the DC job.

As of now, we are stuck with the delusional duo and can only hope for Devine Intervention. Sorry.

LOL ...I have a better hypothetical

Head coach......Nick Saban
Defensive coor.....Bill Belichick ( his mentor and close friend)
Offensive coor......Jason Garrett ( his former OC with the Dolphins)

Put that in your pipe and smoke it .........:popcorn: lol
Need a bigger lighter.

This roster is still better than what he had in New England… it still has talent. And he’ll have an offseason to add to it. Anyone that doesn’t think he’ll come here is crazy
The roster loses DLaw and Martin along with Cooks and 25 other players whose contracts are up. Next years roster won’t be much better than this years.

I am wondering if we could do better at drafting and trading of players. Is McClay overrated? Why do consistently competitive playoff caliber teams who draft later in first, second and third rounds just seem to draft more talented, durable and strong willed players than we do. They certainly have more competent GMs, executive management and coaching staffs.

BB isn't coming here. Look to Jerry's meltdown on The Fan, and then the double down on The Atlantic if you want all the evidence you'll ever need that all he wants is a bunch of sycophantic yes men around him, praising the few things he does right and never mentioning his mountains of screw ups. BB is not coming here.

Belichick wants to comeback and be successful. What do people on here think that the Cowboys would give him to help his legend grow instead of diminish it?

Zero chance BB wants anything to do with Jerry and zero chance Jerry wants anything to do with BB
They're actually really good friends. I don't want Bill here. The guy rode Brady's coattails to a HoF career. He has a losing record without Brady and only started him due to Bledsoe being injured.

I would love to see him strictly for his Defensive prowess, but I can’t see him having a practice where the Owner lands his helicopter on the field!

Having said that Bill would be good for accountability, and also coaching these Bozo’s on when to let go of a player before it’s too late.
How about having a creepy owner who likes massages from sex slaves? Let's also not forget he had a serial murderer in the huddle and a fake doctor running around the team handing out PEDs.

BB is more like Parcels. He is going to want to control over the roster and Jerry hasn't been willing to do that since he signed TO under Parcels nose. He's not willing to swallow his pride, admit he was wrong, and hire someone like BB to clean up the mess. You heard yesterday in that radio interview how defiant and cock-sure of himself he remains.

Prediction: KMoore next year. Jerry would do that.
I doubt very seriously he would do that. Bringing in Kellen Moore as the head coach isn’t going to excite the fan base. Cowboys Nation is real down and Moore as HC would just add more doom and gloom.

Jerry has already shown he does not care one bit what the fans think.

A couple of points to consider:
  • The roster really isn't in good shape, that's pretty apparent to everyone, including BB.
  • If Jerry hires BB and wins, who is going to get that credit? Is it Jerry or one of the best coaches in NFL history?
  • BB is likely to set some firm boundaries as did Bill P., is Jerry willing to walk on eggshells at 83 years old?

This, all your points are valid. We saw when the Tuna was here Jed couldn’t wait to get him out of here, so he could get back in front of the cameras.

Belichick is a lot of things. But stupid isn't one of them. He talks to Jimmy as much as anyone. What do you think Jimmy is going to tell him ? It'll go something like this...."HELL NAW" you'd be a fool to go there"

It fits Jerry's profile. A HC that was successful in the past. They all come to Dallas to pad their retirements. He really digs the past your prime fellers.

This morning's interview on The Fan pretty much cemented this for me.

In 2020, Jerry felt the roster was close, but had underachieved. He was set on hiring a coach with experience winning in the NFL to get the team over the hump:

"One of our primary goals in selecting the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys was to focus on a proven team-builder and winner. Someone who's got a proven track record of winning not only consistently, but at the highest level," said Jones, per ESPN. "[In] Mike McCarthy, we found a coach who not only checked those boxes, but also has the experience of taking an NFL team to the biggest stage, the Super Bowl, and completing the job."

It's obvious that Jerry feels the same way today. He said as much this morning. He thinks the roster he's assembled is good enough to compete with the best teams in the league. He's paid his WR, he's paid his CB, he's paid his QB. So why aren't we winning? It doesn't matter if you agree, that's how he feels. So if the team fails to meet his expectations, the logical conclusion is going to be to replace the guy in charge of the on-field product. Jerry will once again be looking for a proven winner, and no one has won more than Belichick.

Jerry and Bill have been very complimentary of each other in the past and Bill has spoken highly of the organization on his podcast this season. I'll be curious to see if he bites his tongue if/when they discuss last Sunday's beatdown. Yeah, you're probably going to have to deal with his goon squad of Matt Patricia, Josh McDaniels, et al. tagging along. They come with the territory. Oh well, would you rather have Jerry forcing a head coach to hire his buddies like Zimmer?

For the record, I'm fine with this. The only problem Belichick has ever had in coaching in the last two decades was not being able to find a capable QB after Brady. This team has one. Argue all you want about if Dak is elite, great, or merely good. He can get you to the playoffs and with Belichick that's probably all you need, if you trust he's going to take care of the rest (fix the defenses, beef up the trenches).
I believe you're right and I thought so before you said it. :hammer:

Not gonna lie Belichick might be a breaking point for me. You see the issue with the current coaching philosophy and signing Belichick would be like doubling down on it. I don't like his coordinators, he ran Brady out of NE with his ego. Give me a Ben Johnson or Shanahan disciple let's go forwards not backwards.
Bye
