good.

Man Quinn, R. Morris or M. LEWIS inwould be excited..if I hear hes hired someone hes familiar with I'm nervous and pissed

 

[Risen Star]

replying to a comment about how people on this board basically said that Payton was not very good here.

You think because he had his play calling taken away from him with the Giants years ago that means he's not a good coach?

How has his play calling been in New Orleans?

Matt Patricia

matt patricia would be cool...if mccarthy wants"multiple" 3-4 type.
my guess is they're going 4-3.
fine by me.

Lol what a joke jerry & co are. marinelli was a worse coach and let him drag it out for 6 seasons. We are going to fire a coach after 1 covid season with a bunch of crap players lol. This is such a poorly run team. What did I do to deserve this

Had to be done dude. There were ZERO indicators players were buying in or that it would help us win games next season.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Alright who are we hiring now for DC??

Mike Nolan and his Defensive scheme/playcalls killed the Cowboys 2020 season. Good riddance!

Hope Jerry brings in a proven and much better D-Coordinator with good scheme(s) in 2021.

If you are right (And you may well be) Mike McCarthy's plan of what he wanted to build in Dallas has gone up in smoke already.

Bring on the next retread.

 

[maryquality]

Are there any great college defensive coaches we could bring in? Perhaps we can think outside the box.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Knowing Jerry, he’ll try and lure Dave Wanstedt out of retirement.

 

[bratch59]

Wow, Jerry suprised me. I thought he'd surely dig in and give him a pass.

Might be time to give him credit

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

What?

So we won’t get anymore threads from xwalker claiming Nolan isn’t actually a bad defensive coach?

 

[maryquality]

Knowing Jerry, he’ll try and lure Dave Wanstedt out of retirement.

I wouldn't be opposed.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

Never liked him........

 

[GMO415]

Took long enough.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

I posted something brilliant a few days ago about a no change offseason. Status quo was the way to go. We are loaded. We just need nothing flukey to happen.

oh now i remember that....and i said f to staying the course.....that's what sunk the Titanic . So i'm glad they read my post.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Has successful track record, has experience in either scheme, well respected, can attract quality assistants, is firmilar with the college ranks, huge edge considering all the opt out players

Especially mid-lower rounds......

See it's stuff like this that keep you from being Moderator.

If Mike Zimmer if fired from Vikings , he would be a good DC ( 4-3)

Seven seasons at the helm
Two losing= 7-9 ___ 1st year 2014 and just completed 2020
One .500 = 8-8 and one above =8-7-1
Three 10+ win seasons, three playoff berths, two NFC North titles
Wilcard round loss, conference championship game loss, divisional round loss

In summary -- Vikings give Zimmer one more season.
