I couldn't agree more....

"When you coach one of the worst defenses in the Dallas Cowboys' illustrious 54-year history, you get fired.
Frankly, letting a spare running back such as Mark Ingram, who entered Sunday night's game with 50 yards rushing this season, gain 145 yards should be a fireable offense.

New Orleans 49, Dallas 17.

FYI: This is Jason Garrett's worst loss as a head coach.

Goodbye, Monte Kiffin."

This after what several players called a strong week of preparation. Kiffin said the defense had a walk-through practice in a hotel ballroom earlier Sunday and it went well.

We can only imagine how poorly the defense would've played if the walk-through had been poor.


Favorite part. I LOL'd and spit my water

FWIW who wants to come into Dallas any more and try to clean up the mess? You kill your career for even attempting. I know Jerry pays good but it is becoming coaching suicide to go work for him. All of our "we should hire this coach" threads are worthless because why come here and get canned instantly like Rob Ryan because you are supposedly inept, only to turn around and prove the organization you previously worked for is inept at your next job in such a quick turnaround. The depth is among the league worst and the talent is overrated. No one should want to come here and be the hero that turned Dallas back around under Jerry, it continuously looks impossible. Why give up your good gig at a premier college or coordinating job at an already winner to be apart of the current Dallas Cowboys organization?

Jerry is the new Al Davis sadly...

I feel like Dean Wormer from Animal House.

...Bragging about beating ESPN is no way to go through life...

Sorry...just what popped into my mind :)

No need to insult Al Davis...............

Good one. In that light, I offer this...

This has been a disaster.

I saw people trying to make excuses for him about the injuries during the game last night (On the telecast and on twitter) and while I acknowledge the fact that having a revolving door on the D-Line and then having Lee go out is terrible lets not kid ourselves here.

His defense with all their starters, minus Spencer, on opening night gave up 400+ yards and multiple TDs to Eli manning. Yes they got six turnovers and they needed every single one not to lose the game.

This defense with Ware and Lee and Mo healthy gave up 400+ yards passing to Rivers and Peyton as well.

So it's not just the injuries that are hurting them. This team couldn't really stop anyone with a good offense even before all the injuries.

Every time the Tv camera's show Kiffin in the booth he seems to be taking a nap. Can't blame him at his age.

It's comical but I'm serious Picksix. He literally started from the bottom up in football. Most people associate him with owning the Raiders but he was a line coach and HC of the Raiders before he bought them later in his career and was a college assistant for many years (I think). Jerry should in no way, shape or form be confused with Davis the football man unless it's at the end of his life when he seemed senile. Jerry's a freaking joke.
