Bellicheck remains the best in the business as a DC. Don't know how it would work, but that is the best fa DC on the open market and it's not even close!
Yes, his defensive mind is- but Realistically do you really you think Belly would happily agree to take on an immediate DC here, after long being touted
as the best NFL head coach in NFL history ?

This was one of the dumbest hires, maybe even worse than New England.
No, Falcons hire of Morris is still worse, Morris went 4-7 as interim coach with the Falcons and let him go only to hire him back years later, Falcons have the worst coaching hire out of all of them

So now we can look forward to running for 200 yards against Washington twice a year.

This is addition by subtraction for the cowboys
They got much better DTs than us.

Not necessarily. Teams running on us wasn't a coaching problem. It was a talent problem. I suspect we'll have a much harder time throwing on Washington, though.

Interesting they felt higher about Dan Quinn than Bill Belichick..hmmm
Part of it may have been a talent problem, but Quinn’s schemes played a massive role in the run defense deficiencies. He’d routinely have undersized guys on the front 7 and would also line up in exotic fronts on obvious run downs. Those tendencies are a recipe for disaster

It's amazing the distain fans have for a guy who made the defense relevant. I guess you all forgot about Mike Nolan and the 31st ranked D he took over for just a couple years ago.

Cowboys fans....
Truth

Maybe he just wasn’t ready at the time. But there are a lot of people who would disagree with you. I don’t mean fans. Former players and coaches have spoken very highly of Morris. So there is a chance he has really grown into what was needed to run a team as the head guy.

Awesome!
He was a very good coordinator, BUT his D was DOMINATED by GB in the most important game of the season! His D was completely unprepared. His insistence to have a 205lb MLBer on the goal line vs GB was ridiculous.

Bring in Belichick, pleeeeaaaassssseeee!

Dumb move by them. Honestly McDonald should have taken the job. Tons of cap space, draft capital and pick in a spot that will have a legit franchise QB prospect. He wont get a better opportunity.

Quinn is a marginal HC. Unless he has a future perennial Coach of the Year contender under him like he did in Atlanta, he'll max out at like 10 wins

That is the 25,000 question, along with MM accepting him on the staff?

Our defense was too stupid for scheme, they had to bring in Quinn to make things simple for them. Ponder on that one
I’m hoping the coach runs a 3-4

Hank at Nose, Tank at DE, Micah and Overshown at LB
