Czar: Dallas and Minnesota. This is a must win game, but who needs it more?
TB: I would say Dallas. But, golly, flip a coin.
HL: Look at the divisions. The North has been up and down, although the Bears have a 4-1 record. The East has some good teams and the Giants are getting scary. Washington is winning. I would say the East is a tougher place to play right now.
TB: If Dallas goes up to Minnesota and plays like they did last week, and lose again, don’t you think heads would roll in Dallas? The players are confused. They are firing Wade on every page in the Dallas newspapers.
JJ: But we all know that Jerry likes Wade.
TB: We were talking about this a couple weeks ago. But it may come around that this is the way for Jason Garrett to get his head coaching job and for Jerry to find out whether or not he wants to keep him on for next season if they decide to let Wade go.
HL: But who would coach the defense?
TB: I don’t know, Howie. Wade being Wade, he would step down as head coach and stay on as defensive coordinator.
HL: As bizarre as that sounds, that may not be that far-fetched. Jerry has always said after hiring Bill Parcells that he would never again cede so much power to anyone again. If he wants to bring in, fill in the blanks, Bill Cowher, Jon Gruden or whoever it is, then he can do that while knowing what he just had. The key for the next coach is to somehow limit the distractions for this team. I mean not to have training camp in three different spots, stuff like that.
MS: The trouble with the Cowboys this season is that they have been playing well, but they simply don’t know how to finish games.
HL: The penalty that they gave up on the kickoff that subsequently got them pushed back on the rekick and gave Tennessee a big kickoff return, that penalty was just dumb. That was just ridiculous. Stuff like that has been happening at key times all season.
