Yes....get some coaching experience and start building your coach network.I agree......he would be an excellent OC IMO.
Beat me to it by less than a minute!That’s why you work your way up not started at the top. If coaching is something he has a passion for he needs to start as a position coach or OC. Even a great OC doesn’t always make a great HC. It’s a job you need to work into
source please.His teammates said his leadership sucked as a qb. Not HC material
Facts are not insults buddy but we can agree to disagree on some factorsWe agree that he shouldn't be the hire....
but you got only one of your 5 insults correct.
I won't argue it as with that crazy of a take there is no way we could come to an agreement.
Agree to disagree on the other 4.
But per the thread...we DO agree he shouldn't be the coach
Perhaps you need to educate yourself on my Dak takes by looking at my post historybecause the people that defend Dak while hating on Romo need exposed.
What? Who says? Romo is not a coach at heart, not even a little bit.Why Call
- Few with a higher football IQ than Tony Romo--he is a coach at-heart and always has been, and even more so than Kellen Moore, oh by the way
- Highly relatable, which is why he's an analyst in the first place, which is going to translate to the job
- Parcells disciple, but really exposed to so much more given his analyst job for the past 8 years
- No one could possibly... not even Prime... come into the job with a greater flourish and public enthusiasm
- Probably the one guy who would be able to attract Jason Witten to come along side him as an OC
- No one could be more passionate about putting a Super Bowl ring on his finger (after having lost out as a player) than Tony Romo... maybe as passionate, no one more so.
Why Listen
- No one could be more passionate about putting a Super Bowl ring on his finger (after having lost out as a player) than Tony Romo... maybe as passionate, no one more so.
- He's made a lot of money. He doesn't need to be hung up on the money thing. He can afford it.
- Did I mention he's a coach at-heart? This is a very unique moment in his life, and a very unique opportunity to fulfill something really so much more special than being a TV analyst could ever be.
- Jerry should offer Tony a piece of equity in the Dallas Cowboys as a bonus to winning a Super Bowl... that would seal any deal, imo
Game. Set. Match.Romo makes about 20 million a year as a broadcaster.
Conversation over.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!What is with this trend of wanting someone with zero coaching experience to have the most important coaching job in professional sports?
The only example of this I can even remember is Jeff Saturday and that went horribly. Romo is not a coach in any facet of the word.
Why? I wouldn't want either as a HC, but Witten would be by far the better option.If Witten is a real option then I’d rather have Romo.
Yeah leave a cushy broadcasting job for a high pressure gig offering half of the pay. All with no prior coaching experience. Typical low brow thinking from a Cowboys fan.Why Call

Yeah, but diagnosing plays can be done by any 3rd string QB in the NFL.The one downside to a coach search is the crazy suggestions for who we should hire.
In no world should Tony Romo be considered for HC. Yeah, he's great at diagnosing plays on TV. He knows offense. But that's not enough to be a coach. He has zero experience running a college or pro program. He has zero experience running a positional group as an assistant at any level. Can he set up an offseason program? How are his time management skills?
There is so much that goes into being a HC at the NFL level that to think one can be one without having experienced doing any part of running a team. Just because he played and were around coaches doesn't mean you should hand off a major NFL job to him with literally zero coaching experience.
I don’t think Bart Starr had any coaching experience when the Packers hired him as HC. That didn’t fare so well.What is with this trend of wanting someone with zero coaching experience to have the most important coaching job in professional sports?

The way I feel about it. I'd like to see Tony coach. At least have a QB camp in the offseason (which would add to his announcing career as well).Interesting idea. Tony has the perfect job now. And makes a ton more money than Jerry would offer. Hard to see him leaving that for the grind of a HC. The time commitment alone would probably be a deal breaker. He has a young family and would he sacrifice so much time away from them? Unlikely.
Sure you are. This has zero to do with Dak, yet...An extremely lazy take on two very different quarterbacks. You are of course welcome to it, it suits you so.
I'm not here to defend Romo, just the truth.
Romo WALKED on and became one of the best QB's of his time among very good QBs. THAT...is a fact shown again and again.
Dak's legacy remains unfinished.
Star players are notoriously bad coaches. Why? Most likely because the best players have a knack for what they do on the field, and this knack is not teachable. What you want for a HC is a technician, a player who had to work very hard just to make it/play at a high level.I don’t think Bart Starr had any coaching experience when the Packers hired him as HC. That didn’t fare so well.
