Coach Shotty is growing on me

[charron]

They did a more in-depth, thorough search for Shotty's assistants than they did for hiring the head coach.

I'm convinced from what I have seen that he can be a really good CEO type coach. What worries me is that he's also calling plays. That's the part that I'm not so sure about.

Yeah, I agree. Oddly, I think he’s probably better suited to being a non-play-calling HC than he even is an OC.

 

[ScotsCowboy]

He can make a joke!

Cowboys!!

That’s one more skill than you then…

Heck after 1 series many fans here will say the season’s over. Hell, half the board have already said the season’s over. The other half waits a season before making harsh judgements. The sane ones.

Or 8 games in your case, eh quitter?

Its not odd, some people are better suited for some roles. He might be a better hc than he ever was as a coordinator

That's the way "real fans" do it.

There's also people that believe we'll win the Super Bowl even after looking like complete dog poo poo after 8 games. Then they storm off in a huff and aren't seen until the new season starts and pepper the forum with endless Mary Sue optimism. LOL!!

I don't like a coach that is all buddy buddy so they like me. That was a Garrett style and it looks like it's going to be the same old thing.

I wonder if Coach Landry or Coach Jimmy would approve of that?

Punk azz Cowboys, until further notice.

Well you have to be both sides of the coin, mean and nice.

 

[plymkr]

Lol, did he “Schotty Mcloven”? That’s awesome

Hey that’s a better joke than Barry Switzer’s bring a gun to the airport prank. Gotta give Barry credit tho, that’s commitment to a bit.

Hopefully Schotty has some toughness to him and isn’t going to try and be buddies with the players. We don’t need another Wade Phillips.

Looks like his press conferences will be better. We won’t hear the same standard stuff. Call me old fashioned but I like some emotion. I like to see if he cares as much as I do. So if he sheds a tear after a game I’ll be the guy that respects that. Wade Phillips was like Santa Claus.

I’m more open to Schotty now, willing to give it a try. At first I was done but as the offseason has gone on he’s growing on me. Really looking forward to the preseason.

Schotty hired some excellent assistants to help out.
Let's just hope they'll actually help his cause.

Thus far, things appear to be progressing very well.

I think shotty picked and hired all the assistants, except maybe eberflus.

I don’t see Jerry letting that happen.

All of them hired by GM Jerry.

Just like the players.

We have no choice but to give Schotty a try. No HC grows on me until I start seeing the wins. We all want a tough, physical team but not sure if Schotty has the fire and intensity to get players to run through a wall for him. We’ll find out in September.

I think he did but I believe most positions had multiple interviews before they hired.

How is Jerry not letting that happen? As far as the offseason hires, he's allowed Schotty to make his own selections concerning his assistants. I'm sure Schotty had a say about the players as well, since that is done by committee. I doubt that his HC had no say at all in that collective process.
