His record before Brady is even worse. About 11 years total and well below 500 with 1 playoff win. Garrett is better.

Belichick went 11-5 with Matt Cassel starting the entire season in 2008.

Garrett went 1-6 with Cassel starting.

Belichick is done. He and Brady had the perfect storm in New England. That will never happen in the NFL again. The closest thing to it was Jimmy, Jerry, and Troy. There's also no way he and Jerry could coexist in Dallas.

Yep zero chance he’d work for Jerry. Couldn’t imagine that ever.
The Commandos think they are getting them.
Can’t imagine he’d go to a situation without a good QB although they may give him full control over personnel. Problem is, he can’t win there. Chargers make the most sense to me, maybe even Seattle if they are serious about ditching Carol.
Belichick won’t succeed without a top-flight QB. That’s already been proven. Without Brady he wouldn’t have lasted 4 seasons as HC in New England.

First of all,compared to what he has in NE, ours looks like a top tier line.

But honestly, what does Belichick bring to the table that makes you think he would be the guy to get Dallas over the top? I mean, he is a guy that has a system, somewhat like Parcells did and it would take a few years to build that kind of roster. Makes no sense.

So he is coming to Dallas?
Because many of our fans do not expect us to do anything.
The fan base has been scarred from 28 years of coming up short. Hard to expect that to change this season from what we’ve seen from this team. It’s been a mixed bag this season. Some extreme highs and some extreme lows.

Yeah, Cassel was way better than Mac Jones has ever been. Cassel went to the playoffs starting for KC in 2010 as well.
So they both have a playoff berth. What's your point? That makes him way better? Lol. When Ole Bill fails again we'll see what excuses get brought up next.

Going to be interesting off-season but I could see Jim Harbaugh going to Chargers, Belichick going to Commanders, and the Raiders go with a college guy.

But is this not the exciting part of any season. As this time it can be different.

Sorry but I am not one to wallow in the past and be miserable, only look forward to what can possibly be something different.

Yes, ex-players and coaches feel that way, but our fans don't. Fans see the failures of the run game and blame it all on the line. Fans see a few sacks here and there and think the protection sucks. It's almost like they don't watch other offensive lines.
Yes, I see our lack of running game
And don't see a top tier offensive line

Sorry, I am going with the eye test.

If Belichick is out of New England, my guess is the Chargers. That's the best case scenario for him.

Lost me at "top tier offensive line".

Outside perception is that it's still an elite unit but the slide has been gradual and it's getting worse.

How did he build all those great championship teams if his player acquisitions sucked? You might want to go through the list of great players those teams had. :thumbup:
They had many great players at one time, his top draft picks over the last decade or so have been pretty poor. Read any of the news coming out of the local papers there and he is getting slammed heavily for poor draft picks in recent years. The talk is that if he is to keep his job he will have to give up his full control. Yes plenty of great players at one time, but What have you done for me lately! Personally I think he’s too old at this point but someone will throw him a line I’m sure.

I wonder if he would consider taking Quinn's job as DC.

I can’t imagine any Cowboys fan is miserable. The team is in playoffs for the third straight season which hasn’t happened since our great 90s teams. The Cowboys could win the division tomorrow with a win over Washington and secure at least one home playoff game. There’s a lot to be excited about, however there’s a lot of caution amongst Cowboys Nation due to coming up short for so many years. The odds aren’t in our favor of reaching the Super Bowl based on the shortcomings this team has but anything is possible which provides some hope.

Normally you would read something like this in the off season and many people would be posting that the off season is too slow and too many people throwing crap at the walls for clicks. But we are not even in the off season...heck we are not even in the post season yet.
