CBS Sports Patrik Walker Sources on Nolan’s Future

[817Gill]

Some people don’t like this guy as a source not really sure why. Go through his Twitter feed he’s been pretty spot on about a lot of things in the last few years. Anyways here’s a snippet and link from his new article concerning Nolan’s remarks on his future.

“The needle of change is instead aimed at Mike Nolan, the team's defensive coordinator who leads a historically bad unit that has been roundly criticized for not only continued lack of execution but, more importantly, lack of effort. The much-needed moral and actual victory over the lowly Cincinnati Bengals doesn't change the temperature beneath Nolan's seat one iota, sources told CBS Sports on Monday, and it will take some very fervent convincing to sway owner Jerry Jones into keeping him onboard.”

Hope Jerry isn’t keeping him next season. All the more reason to tank and look like crap defensively lol.

Here’s another good bit detailing what many have speculated in terms of reassignment. Nolan sounds like he knows what comin too, “When that time comes, we'll deal with it if there is a change,” lol.

“As noted in a CBS Sports report on Sunday ahead of the team's matchup with the Bengals, Nolan's fate isn't sealed just yet and there's also a chance -- thanks to the relationship between he and McCarthy -- he could be retained but simply moved out of the defensive driver's seat and into a different role. The Cowboys are currently weighing all of their options and whatever they choose to do may come swiftly at the conclusion of the season, so that they can get a head start on adapting for the 2021 season.”

In other words, he's NOT getting a private vote of confidence from MM, Stephen, or Jerry, he can see the writing on the wall. Just my take but based on this, he's done as DC. Just whether or not he's fired or demoted.

Nolan sounds like he knows what comin too, “Whatever happens after the season happens” lol.

Is this the new guy we’re gonna hype up all off-season?

 

[Majic]

I think the best Nolan can hope for his to be retained as some kind of consultant. Edwards will probably take over. But what does McCarthy want to do long-term. Jerry mentioned today about 'continuity and sticking with a long-term plan'

What is the long-term plan?

is there a 'long term plan'?

 

[fivetwos]

Not as if MM hasnt sold Jerry before.

 

[Risen Star]

What a scoop! They may or may not keep him and it could or could not happen soon after the season.

Or he may stay on doing something else too. Or not.

Keep this on the down low!

One of many!

IMO he is the common sense choice. Previous experience with a good defense and he is completely familiar with the players.

That and the fact he isn't Nolan.

Long term medical disability. Call your union rep, Nolan!

Just me but when you consider how bad the D has been IF they were that impressed with Edwards, I think at a min he would already have taken some Nolan responsibilities. In other words, I'm not sure he's the answer.

I'm sticking with my prediction of Marvin Lewis until otherwise.........lol.

Jerry’s long term plan has always been making himself seems important, comfortable and money. Hope is all he has for on the field activities.

I can see that, but this year is so ***** up with the pandemic I think its mostly about paddling the life boats than picking the new Captain of the Titanic II.

 

[DoctorChicken]

There’s no way Nolan makes it through the offseason.

I’d bet money that Edwards is DC next year.

That would be awesome, and he did have an interview/consultation with the Front Office before they hired McCarthy.

All I know is Vikings fans were upset that he left and all I know is I'm upset that Nolan is here.

He did?????
Didn't know......but you can imagine my take now (LOL). Done deal????? lol

As a consultant? On what? How to suck? When has he ever shown a competent display of DCing?
