Coordinators don’t need coaching. Some coordinators even have head coaching experience.

I’ll take game experience and gut feeling.
Coordinators absolutely need coaching, as do the position coaches. I think you're spot on in your first post saying the HC needs to be a big picture guy, but If you think the HC is a face for player motivation you have it completely backwards. Players spend more time with coordinators and position coaches than they ever will their HC. The HC gets the spotlight pre game speech but real motivation happens way before that.

Jason Witten is just as qualified to be an NFL head coach as Jerry Jones was to be an NFL General Manager when he bought the team.

Dan Campbell played TE for us and is a great coach. Which in the mind of Jerry makes 82 a slam dunk hire

I really dont think he would go with Witten. I could see Lincoln Riley though
I see Lane Kiffin before Riley.......his father of course worked for Jerry and he would get an endorsement from Nick Saban. But honestly, since he needs an entire coaching staff, I just don't see him putting that kind of trust in a young guy with limited experience. Remember McCarthy was hired coz they thought we were a SB team but needed a coach who could take us to the next level. One of the beat writers was saying Jerry as a rule generally hires experienced/season coaches. This is why someone like Gruden, Belichick or Saban seems to make sense but again, this is Jerry.

BTW.....some are ruling Belichick out coz his $10M buyout but I say not so fast. There are many ways to skin that if they both want each other.......for example, Jerry can pay the buyout a conditional loan added to his contract. If Belichick meets certain incentives the loan is void, otherwise he could pay it back on the back end of the contract. Jerry and Belichick could also nego a reduction of the penalty.

The chances of them[Cowboys]hiring a coordinator from another team who has never been a head coach and is not someone they know is slim to none. Think Kellen Moore, Pete Carroll, Doug Pederson....

Former Cowboys WR Jesse Holley said Jerry Jones will not hire an African American Head Coach.

I would support that hire. Kiffin is really smart and the players love him. It would be good timing for him too b/c he just lost his QB. One snag is that Kiffin makes 9M per year at Ole Miss and there might a buy out. So, is Jerry willing to double the pay of his head coach?
As of January 13, 2025, Lane Kiffin’s buyout at Ole Miss is $3 million if he leaves before the end of 2025.

Jerry spends more on Liquor each year

I know it's not your job. Your job is to **** on anything Cowboys. I was wondering if you actually had a choice as to who should be the coach or had your backside in position to let loose no matter who they hire.
When they get serious about winning, I won't **** on them anymore. But there have been zero signs of that for THIRTY (30) years.

But he likes liquor more than coaches.
yeah, but Kiffin wants to coach in NFL he's said it before. Jerry could talk him in to a 5-7m a year deal with incentives that if he reaches things it goes upwards of 10m... All of it lines up IF its going to be a college coach.

You know your job. Load up on Mexican food and make your doctor appointment.
