I didn't want him hired. He proved me right all year and now he's gone.

Happy day!

You could see this coming a few days ago when Jerry danced around the question during his radio interview on whether Nolan would be back. That spoke volumes.

I never would have hired Nolan, and was one of the few saying so when he was hired, but even I'll admit he didn't really get a fair chance here with circumstances beyond his control.
Nah, he got plenty of chances - 16 of them in fact. Not the guy.

Yeah but your players are still trash. Unless they spend money, that hardly changes.

Sure you have pieces to build around, but thinking Jaylon Smith is a cornerstone player and defensive leader and still not addressing Safety and DT will net you the same results.
This. Everyone has a DC name they like as long as "he can bring in his own guys". That's the rub with Jerry. "Sure you can come be the DC of our club but I'm going to tell you who I want to bring in as your assistance and I will definitely tell you which players you will have to work with and start on Sunday. #54 is our cornerstone".

Please believe that I'm being totally honest in saying this but I honestly believe that the Dallas FO has taken the only wise decision available to them. The signs all pointed to a terrible disaster being in wait for the future of our defensive corps. I truly think Jerry and Stephen made the only practical decision that held a reasonable likelihood for the Dallas defense to be successful. Perhaps Jim Schwartz would be a workable solution. Any other idea favoring a better choice would, certainly, be welcome. Feel free to chime in.

No surprise here new it was coming. Now the interesting bit, has Mike McCarthy lost power and has to concede to the Jones wish of a 4-3 guy and a change to his philosophy that he brought with him or does the multi/hybrid scheme continue.

My guess McCarthy has little say
I hope McCarthy resigns in disgust.
