Gruden Rumor

[Vintage]

Every year this team does not satisfy fans expectations we shout fo a new HC.

And every year Grudens name pops up.

How come ?

So we can continue with tradition and not exceed expectations.

Gruden is not my first pick, I have some concerns about him as well. However, I am just done with Garrett after last week..............I really dont care who the next head coach is along as Garrett is gone..............

I understand that. But removing Garrett is only part of the equation. If we don't make a good hire, we're right back here again.

stopped reading at shan shariff.

Yep, nothing to see here. Shan Shariff is a morning radio clown that knows nothing about football.

From what I have understood..

Romo only this season has been allowed to have more input into the game planning and therefore should be a better QB.

Maybe Romo is uncoachable?

Have any of us followed that thought thru?

I'm at that conclusion anyway just based on his W/L record overall.

It has always been a belief of mine that Romo has to be managed heavily. That goes all the way back to when Parcells finally gave him the starting job.

It is also clear that Jerry Jones has made that impossible now that he has spent years being so focused on him as being who makes the team win or lose. He is just simply not that kind of football player who can take a team on his back and be the full service leader that you see in say Brady or Manning. That does not stop Jones from believing he is.

I ask this about every name-brand coaching candidate - what is he going to think about ROmo's contract power over offensive preparation and who knows what else?

 

[waving monkey]

Id love that! Show some damn emotion. Get pissed off at the refs!! Do something other than clap and smile. -_-

you forget Ton Landry

I seriously doubt Gruden is entertaining thoughts of pairing up with Jerry, especially after witnessing the state of the Cowboys in recent years. Gruden and Jerry probably wouldn't be a good mix anyhow. He'd want control -- so would Jerry. I believe he'd be more inclined to make a return to coaching in Oakland rather than in Dallas.

Good fit with whisenhut. Hard on players and they don't like him but he would be a nice fit here with a group of like minded coaches.

While I love tough coaches, Haley isn't tough-good, he's tough-stupid. Offenses under his tutelage go south. They become worse, not better. He can't deal with diva WR.

I don't know why everyone is so high on Gruden. What has he done other than take someone else's team to the SB and then crash and burn in the few years after that?

Becuz he's a least been successful at the highest levels..

something Garrett will never achieve.

And like Troy Aikman..he has been very successful outside of football.

And unlike Garrett..

Gruden has been successful in a hostile ownership environment under Al Davis..

..much like here in Dallas with Jerrah Jones.

Aikman will never step out of his broadcast booth security.

Gruden is a risk taker and would return to the sidelines in the right sitatuationin

It has always been a belief of mine that Romo has to be managed heavily. That goes all the way back to when Parcells finally gave him the starting job.

He is just simply not that kind of football player who can take a team on his back and be the full service leader that you see in say Brady or Manning. That does not stop Jones from believing he is.

I also believe this.

Jones in his mind does think Romo is in those players pedigree.

Which he is not.

Neither Brady nor Brees require all the excuses or owner makeovers at HC to make him win.

And neither of them require the amount of special player formulations like with Romo and Dallas.

You can stick any WRs and RBs on their offenses and they can get the job done.

Not us.

We have to spend years of roster changes and it still doesn't change the team.

They are still unable to improve their W/L by even a game in the positive.

That takes a lot of bad decisions and bad play by the QB since he's the one constant among all the change.

4 pages in and no one has mentioned that Gruden can't evaluate talent either.

Let's face it boys: it's going to be a total rebuild within 2 years. Better make sure you get someone who knows how to pick players.

That's okay, Jerry got that covered, lol.

go back and watch gruden in 06 and his playoff game against the giants in 07.

He had his time. Paying him a large salary is craziness. He is not a builder of a franchise. That is what we need.

Jerry is going to hire a defensive guy for two reasons, he put together one of the worst defenses anyone has ever seen with his own decisions last offseason and now he needs the fans to see he is fixing it himself again......and the second reason is he is cheap, by hiring a guy like zimmer he can make him the defensive coordinator or by hiring lovie he can just change marinelli's job title to defensive coordinator like he did Callahan this offseason.

and the beat will go on. That will throw the structure out of whack.

we need a real head coach. The best head coaching candidate there is and he should be able to hire all his own assistants.

raise your hand if you think that has any chance of happening.

Art Briles may not agree to OC for Garrett but he may do it for Gruden. As for a D coach, I want to see Dallas implement the Seattle D. It is time to bring Kenny Norton home. And if Rex gets fired in NY then I want Dennis Thurman where he belongs, coaching the Cowboys secondary.
