I'm down. Bring in the professionals.

but you were also “down” with Garrett and all the other garbage this FO has put us through recently so you were going to be “down” with whatever happened as a good little fan

I literally said "fire everyone" after the Eagles game. But hey, I get it. It's easier to think consistently negative than critically.

I'm almost liking Jerry today......I said almost

Maybe it's Stephen's turn to buy the groceries.

I'm ok with the DC as long as the HC is making the decisions.

 

[GMO415]

Solid

 

[uvaballa]

I like aggressive DC’s.

 

[Staubacher]

Hope the players especially on defense realize this is a new era with higher expectations. They can be shown the door just like Clappy.

Can we keep Marinelli in some sort of a DT advisory role?

Yes, he must run the draft room.

Nolan's career as DC has been very up and down. Seems he's done well when he's had talent (Bal 2002-2004 - had #1 defense by DVOA in 2004, with top5 finishes all 3 years - with otherworldy Ravens talent), NYJ 2000, MIA 2010-2011), but has been awful with mediocre to bad talent (Wash 1997-99, ATL 2013-2014, SF Head Coach).

So, as many writers/analysts have pointed out, talent means more than scheme for defensive success. I think most on here would agree that Dallas is lacking talent at several key defensive positions; DT, LB, S. Good luck to whoever's the DC. At least Marinelli's influence will be gone on draft day.

Can we keep Marinelli in some sort of a DT advisory role?

Yes. He'll be in charge of drafting D-Linemen.

Can we keep Marinelli in some sort of a DT advisory role?

Only if we keep Garrett in some sort of advisory role.
