Assuming we kept Garrett and Marinelli got the boot who would you want and who could we realistically get to replace Marinelli that would be a clear upgrade??
 
Somebody said Swartz in another thread, currently I believe we need 1 more draft, and free agency but if dude ignores 1-Tech in the early rounds, he better get a decent FA....
 
Is there anybody with experience on Zimmer or bilichek staff we could steal

The only way Swartz comes here is as a head coach .
 
Maybe Steve Spagnulo, the giants guy if he gets fired?

That might be too good of a hire for Jason Garrett though. He probably doesn’t want any young defensive coordinator. Reason being if a younger defensive coordinator comes in and does well and Garrett doesn’t it is easier to fire him and promote the DC. Garrett is a snake/con artist to the highest degree.

My guess is if Rod goes we hire some 60 year old coach who has no potential to be a head coach.

Steve Spagnulo is about 60 years old.
 
What DC is going to go to Dallas and short time it with Garrett and likely be out on their butt when he eventually gets fired? They will just do the lazy thing and promote Eberflus.

Typical Jones move here. I'll do you one better...Eberflus being promoted to head coach.
 
A coordinator change will do nothing. We're going to scream about how the next DC sucks while Marinelli coaches a championship defense elsewhere. Our defense was already at a talent deficit last year, and now this year, you blow up the best group on the defense, which is the secondary, put all rookies and second year players on it and expect it to get better?

Ugh. Let’s please not overrate mo, Carr, church and Wilcox

Championship D. He hasn't been close in 10 years. Right around the time the league figured out how to beat his simple outdated scheme

They certainly are a lot better than what we've seen this year. The defense only allowed one game where an opponent scored 30 or more in regular season and that was against the Steelers, where they scored 30. We're 11 games in and we've had 4 games where the opposition has scored 30 or more. Trevor Siemian lit us up for over 40. This defense is significantly worse.

Isn’t take Lewis over any of those 4. And probably woods as well

We've heard Rob Ryan was the problem, Lane Kiffen was the problem, and now Marinelli was the problem. No coordinator is coming here and creating a shut down defense with a FO that thinks that a defense composed of former backups (Heath), conversion projects (Byron Jones), other teams' castoffs and rookies/second year players is sufficient. Those guys we signed in free agency to bolster the defense aren't even on the team anymore. We'll be complaining about the next DC next year when he's not shutting down teams with this rag tag defense that is predicated on one player who has an injury history -- Sean Lee. If you fire Marinelli, you have to take Garrett with him. We've sacrificed enough coordinators to cover for Garrett.

This whole narrative is absurd and unfounded.

Wade had pretty good defenses. And I agree garrett should go too....
Maintaining the status quo won't change results
