Bobby Belt: 10 coaches Cowboys will likely consider if MM doesn't return

[aikemirv]

OMG! How much did this guy get paid to regurgitate those 10? I mean what about Flores, Johnson or how about our very own Al Harris? C'mon Jason Witten?? Really? Absolutely no thought put into this click bait B.S.

I agree - I mean mention so much about offense and not include Ben Johnson?????

Gruden, Pederson - why bother with those retreads? Although I think Gruden is a guy who could handle Jerry very well and get his way over Jerry if he wanted. They said a lot of the Gruden stuff was manufactured anyway and that players had a much different view of him - I don't know myself, that's just what I heard.

I still think frank Reich is a good coach and just had a horrible situation. I'd give him a second chance. Same with Saleh.

 

[Carson]

We could halve hired Payton or Harbaugh or Vrabel or Belichick in the last couple years, look at that list lol. I know Vrabel is on it but he's going to the Pats now.

Vrabel is the only one not making 10+ million per year. Jerry wants his guy making 3-4 million

 

[windward]

Are we doing the thing again where we start acting as if Bobby Belt’s list is the actual list?

 

[gimmesix]

1. Jon Gruden
2. Vance Joseph
3. Kellen Moore
4. Matt Nagy
5.Doug Pederson
6. Frank Reich
7. Robert Saleh
8. Mike Vrabel
9. Jason Witten
10. Mike Zimmer

Choices considered by the DallasEast/Jerry Jones Brain Machine! (patent pending)

"Nope!"

"Uh uh."

"Well, Kellen did train under my Tom Landry."

"Matty's my type."

"There is another ex-Super Bowl winning head coach available? Right now? ~writes name down~

"No."

"Suuieepig no."

"Hell to the no."

~starts humming to himself~ "You got to know when to hold 'em. Know when to fold 'em..."

"Can I be 100% sure Mikey doesn't have a smidgen of Jimmy still in him..?"

I think Moore or Pederson would be the most obvious. Moore because he's an up-and-coming coordinator with ties to us and Pederson because he's won a Super Bowl. Both of those are criteria that are important to the Joneses.

Whoops, let off Gruden, who also is a Super Bowl-winning coach.

Could have fired McCarthy after the epic Green Bay choke and hired Quinn. I like him better than most on that list.

 

[phildadon86]

They 100% are

All other HC needy teams have multiple interviews scheduled. Dallas has done nothing. This is just free agency all over again

They haven’t called Jerry. He doesn’t call people remember?

10 head coaches Cowboys will likely consider if Mike McCarthy doesn't return​

Horrible list

If we can’t get Ben Johnson, I’d prefer making a run at Dan Lanning, Sark, Kirby Smart or Marcus Freeman over any of those guys

Gruden is a true Jerry type of hire and would make sense. He runs the same style of scheme as MM. "DAK FRIENDLY" and Jerry can promote the heck out of Chucky. Also on Jerrys list would be Kingsbury and the USC HC Lincoln Riley, whom he has a close friendship with. Riley has shown that he has no allegiances to a team and would leave USC if Jerry called. Thats a name that should be on the list above.

Jason Witten for me, don't care a damn about NFL coaching experience. He is a winner and has what it takes to win.

 

[Rowdy1]

From that list I'd take Vrabel. I really don't want KM back

 

[lostar2009]

Mike Vrabel or Ben Johnson in my book. I would take Vrabel if they are committed to running the ball and

 

[Rayman70]

As much as I love Witten as a player, the dude is a Highschool HC. That hire would be an extreme reach and a big ask. Saleh, Gruden, Lincoln Riley, Kliff Kingsbury, Zimmer. We can narrow it down to THOSE 5. With Zim, I think hes retiring. Hes tired, and has other things in his life to occupy his time.

 

[dupree89]

For those of us that don't want MM back, I think the longer it drags on without us hearing anything---it increases the chances of us being disappointed. I fear it means they are working out contract details.

 

[Rayman70]

From that list I'd take Vrabel. I really don't want KM back

I agree but looking at what Jerry might do s far as HIS list, Vrabel wouldn't be on it. In my opinion. Jerry has friendships with Kingsbury and Riley.

 

[SwagSurfer]

Pretty vanilla list tbh

 

[805BoysInBlue]

After Vrabel, Id actually be pretty high on a Saleh hire.

You want the biggest "yes man" to come and coach under this owner? That's a recipe for disaster.

I doubt Zim has the stamina to be HC and husband of a woman young enough to be his granddaughter.

Jason Witten for me, don't care a damn about NFL coaching experience. He is a winner and has what it takes to win.

Doesn’t a person actually have to win something to be labeled a “winner “?? I love Witten as a player as much as anyone, but this narrative is silly. Witten has no business being anywhere near an NFL HC search for now. Want to bring him in as the TE coach? Sure, I’m all for it.

 

[Sydla]

Yes, incredible. Why would hee be on a list?

It's a terrible list by the way. Rex Ryan would be a better hire

Rex Ryan might be the last straw with me. That would make this circus complete.
