News: Cowboys DL Coach Jim Tomsula Fired

[Majic]

LOL.....that may be true but it's not like Aldon's opinion carrying a lot of weight.

Not just Aldon, over the years heard a lot of guys sing Tomsula's praises

 

[Mr_437]

Hopefully the Joneses don't pull another half azz coaching search like last year, heck get some guys in here they don't know and be open to being wowed by somebody.

Edwards is boring and he was somewhat part of this mess. Give me someone young, talented and hungry or a guy who's a tried and true problem for OCs weekly.

What I want to know is is this what Mike wanted, jerry wanted or both?
And was it Mike's decision to make?

Mike caused the problem when he talked Jerry into hiring Nolan.

they won’t make the same mistake twice.

100%......he couldn't stop the bleeding either. He's not the answer IMO...

 

[CouchCoach]

They fired Tomsula to give Nolan someone to play checkers with and they should be considering a poker game of 6.

They should fire the entire D coaching staff on the worst D in Cowboys history. The Cowboys D could be good with some different coaches and players.

 

[DandyDon52]

So.....just a guess, but I guess these guys were not part of the unique strong and powerful foundation that MM built his first year here??

 

[lukin2006]

What, wait...but why? The head coach should be fired fir hiring these lousy coaches.

 

[Brax]

This is a huge indictment on McCarthy.

No it is not, if it was MM would of been the first to go, this is this years scape goat for Jerry and MM's total failure. Remember Jerry opened his check book for Kellen to keep him here. If MM fails again next year look for mid season Boy wonder part 2 in a stadium near you.

 

[The Fonz]

cosmetic changes

 

[Whyjerry]

Nolan has a demonstrated history of sucking as a DC. Tomsula has a demonstrated history of being a good DL coach. Jerry has a demonstrated history of being a terrible GM.

 

[FVSTONE]

Man, wasn't expecting that one, but bump it, clean house Jerry. More names?

I totally agree, I'm waiting for the purge to trickle down to the players on this horrible team. Time to make a statement that says, " Overpaid, Underachievers BEWARE!".

 

[5Stars]

I can command a coach for admitting a mistake....but damn is that a failure....imagine had the whole team been healthy and the defense is what held them back......

You going to "command" or "commend" the coach, because you can't command him to do anything. lol

 

[Creeper]

Must be something we don't know. The DL was bad, but that's because they didn't really have any good DTs. They ended the season playing Hamilton and Ankou a lot of snaps and they were way better than the rejects they were when Dallas signed them. I am happy with the progress Gallimore made. Look what they got from Gregory and Aldon Smith. The defense was bad but I didn't have a problem with the coaching of the DL. They just don't have any talent on the DL. Who is the LBs coach. Now he needs a good talking to.

 

[The Fonz]

Nolan has a demonstrated history of sucking as a DC. Tomsula has a demonstrated history of being a good DL coach. Jerry has a demonstrated history of being a terrible GM.

These moves just to please the fans and deflect the blames

 

[quickccc]

- Dude totally wasted Bradley Anaes rookie season

- and didn't see fit to give Gregory more than 20% snaps

-And glowing in his wake is one of the worse run defense we ever had

 

[Starforever]

If he fired those two, just think about what he will do to the coach, that did not challenge that play.

yes...because the gm here has a great track record of hiring asst's.
no thanks.
let mccarthy do it.
his staff.

 

[cowboyec]

pullin' for Leon Lett

Agree. You notice the constant in all this?
