I don't dislike Reeves but I'd prefer youth, longevity and stability at the position with someone we can build around for the long term.

Man, I just get more pissed at Jerry every day. IMO, He has no clue what he is doing (although last years draft appears to have gone pretty well) or he is just stubbornly doing it his assinine way regardless of how bad it gets. He let what’s his face go to Miami and sided with TO and let Haley go.

The articles below bring out some interesting things about Haley and these are qualities I think are valuable in a coach:

• His dad was in coaching and integrally involved with the 70’s Steelers
• He studied film as a kid and almost assuredly picked up a bunch being around his dad
• He was hired and worked for Parcells on multiple teams
• He is passionate and intense (maybe too much, but I’d rather have that than the latter)

I’m not even mentioning the job he’s doing in Arizona (because that could be due to a lot of factors that have nothing to do with him), but I think he deserves some measure of credit.

The one issue I have with him is that he grew up a Steeler fan and hated the Cowboys so I don’t know how hard it would be for him to stay with the Cowboys long term and if that would effect his performance.

God I wish they had a strong head coach that expected hard work, discipline, toughness, etc. He doesn’t need to be as extreme as Parcells or Johnson, but the Michelin man is a joke, er,.... I mean cupcake

I prefer the proven coach and Reeves has proven he can coach in the NFL.

All Haley has shown is he can yell at a wr. It's Wisenhunt's offense.

I'd never seen that before.

But I doubt David's theory is exactly right. The team wasn't talking before Reeves even tried to get the 49ers OC job.

I think maybe BP is right that Jerry just realized he should lay low and the organization should hunker down for a little while as they regroup and figure out how to fix this thing. I also still suspect Stephen is gaining more control and he's behind this.

 

[Bleu Star]

Reeves announces he wants to get back into coaching, gets at least one offer we know of to be OC and turns that down. His name apparently had surfaced in one or two other cities as well.

Reports emerge he is leaning towards accepting a "consultant" role with the Cowboys.

DMN reports today that any announcement will not occur until AFTER the Super Bowl. FWST"s Gil Lebreton makes it seem like a done deal that Reeves is coming here.

Things have been awfully quiet at VR since that Philly debacle, and Jones refuses to publicly discuss Wade or Jason Garrett in Mobile last week. Wade refuses to speak at all.

So if Reeves is only coming as a "consultant" or psuedo-GM as some have suggested, why does Jones feel compelled to wait until AFTER the Super Bowl to make it official? It's not an attention grabber or distraction from the Super Bowl, which we know the league doesnt like. Other teams have hired personnel people (ie, Pats w/ Floyd Reese) and asst coaches (multiple teams)

Maybe Reeves isnt coming to be a "consultant" at all. Maybe he's coming to assume the HC job, with Wade moving to DC. And who knows, maybe it was Wade's idea. Wade and Dan have a great working relationship and they really like and respect each other.

OK, maybe its just the fact I've had no caffeine yet, but it all does seem a little strange to me.

You're definitely onto something there sherlock.

Another odd thing to throw in the mix is that other than some Manusky rumors there seems to be absolutely no effort to replace Stewart going on.

I can't stop looking at this and laughing.

I think they are waiting to see if Manusky is indeed let go first. If he is not than I fear they hire from within. So I don't think it plays into the Reeves scenario..but hey who knows.

 

[Dhragon]

I disagree.

Jerry Jones was very emphatic about bringing Wade Phillips back before and after the loss to Philadelphia. Also, as many have seen, Jerry Jones has bitterly stated that the "Coaches and Personnell" are in place.

Also, Jerry Jones being mum about certain players and coaches is nothing new. I remember after 2006 Season, there was huge speculation that Terrell Owens might not be back and for a while Jerry Jones was silent on the issue. Eventually, he did an interview with The Musers and got extremely testy with them when they kept asking him about Terrell Owens' status.

Furthermore, you say that hiring Dan Reeves as a Consultant wouldn't be an attention grabber, for most franchises that would be the case but the everything the Dallas Cowboys do receives alot of attention.

Folks just need to come to grips with the fact that the old gang consisting of Wade Phillips, Jason Garrett and Terrell Owens is coming back. Because as Jerry Jones stated, "The Coaches and Personnell are in place".

Ask the former Defensive Coordinator and Special Teams coaches if Jerry was telling the truth there.

Again, everyone knew those guys were out.

Bruce Read and Brian Stewart were going to be the sacrificial lambs offered up to the Public.

Wade Phillips, Jason Garrett and Terrell Owens are still members of the Organization. There is more proof that supports the idea that the ole gang is coming back then the contrary.

Here is a slant on the Reeves hiring I have not seen mentioned.

Many here wanted Dom Capers brought in as D.C.

Well Reeves had him fired when he worked as a consultant for Houston.

Little confused here.

Are you implying that we did not get Capers because we are going to get Reeves?

Because I heard of no Reeves talk prior to Capers going off the market to another team.

So maybe I am missing your point.

not according to Wade the day after the season. Wade emphatically stated Brian Stewart would be back.

 

[Hoofbite]

A move like this will never happen because it is what is best for the team.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

not according to Wade the day after the season. Wade emphatically stated Brian Stewart would be back.

Exactly because he was asked about Brian Stewart specifically from some in the media.

 

[Maikeru-sama]

The key words, "Wade Phillips" was asked if Brian Stewart was coming back, not Jerry Jones.

However, I didn't know Wade Phillips stated this and just serves as another example that he has no clue.

 

[AsthmaField]

I also still suspect Stephen is gaining more control and he's behind this.

Man, I really, REALLY hope that is the case. Stephen has a good head on his shoulders and maybe he can get it through Jerry's head that distractions aren't a good thing and that the team needs some discipline.

Jerry- "the coaches are in place"

right after the season...in fact it might have been after the game

Maybe because Brian Stewart was a close friend of Wade and Wade didn't want to call out his friend in public, telling him he was going to be fired. Imagine how Stewart would have taken it, learning he was gone through the media?

Is it really that hard to comprehend? Yes, that would mean Wade lied.
