You think they were just born that way then?

I guess ol' Dave is a lot more influential than anyone thought if he could shape both Roy's personality in one out of six years as his coach and Flo's on the opposite side of the ball from him.

Yes, I do think they were born that way. Ellis was probably fretting in his crib.

Why do you trade veterans for draft picks?

Upside.

I don't prescribe to the theory that because he presided over an extremely talented secondary over a decade ago that he is anything special as a coach. He's proven he is no more than a secondary coach and never will be, and perhaps he is a slightly above average journeyman at that.

Why settle for the known mediocre when you can put a young guy with upside in place there and then couple him with a proven vet like Capers to help him along?

And even form a sheer PR perspective, why put the very Poster Child that symbolized the absolute rock bottom of a decade of failure back on the team in any capacity?

You can have Fat Freddie Kitchens and Vincent Brown. I'll take the proven successful professional coaches.

He's part of the coaching staff. His leadership attributes - or lack thereof - matter. Even middle management has an effect on the team.

Even if its only the secondary that gets to go to Sea World now.

Yet he did not negatively impact the Cowboys when he was on staff in the 90s.

Wow. I never thought a thread about a poodle would get so long. I guess we have an abundance of dog lovers on the board too.

No, but we do like secondary coaches that produce top 10 pass defenses.

They had better get him some groceries if he plans on keeping that streak alive.

Great hire. Now let's just get Switzer to coach LB's and Coslet as Garrett's OC.
