Hypothetical Question About The 1995 Super Bowl Team

[Hostile]

Barry Switzer won a Super Bowl with Jimmy's team. We all basically agree with that.

Chan Gailey
Dave Campo
Bill Parcells
Wade Phillips
Jason Garrett

Which of those coaches do you think would have done it as well, which do you think couldn't have?

I will say the last 3 could have, the first 2 couldn't have.

All of them.

 

[tupperware]

All of them.

+1

Was such a talent laden team with a knack for winning. It would take a little bit of time before each coach would erode that kind of thing away. (See Wade, 2007)

I'd put Campo and Wade in the no category because they were the two worst coaches in terms of preparing the team, motivating it, holding players accountable and getting them to perform. Wade should have taken the team to the big game with the 2007 squad.

I never felt Gailey got a fair chance to coach the team, what with the player's egos and Jerry's listening to them instead of backing the coach, but if that braying ******* Switzer won with that group so could Gailey.

 

[ThreeandOut]

All of them.

They would be among the 500 coaches that could have won a Super Bowl with that team.

 

[Hagman]

All of them.

I don't know. Maybe another way to look at it is which of those coaches could have won The Super Bowl in 1994 with that group? Switzer could not do it that year. I doubt Campo or Wade would have either. Garrett and Parcells I would put in the probably yes category.

Switzer likely wasn't much better, if at all

The real question is, how does the 94' season go if we had hired Norv before he went to Washington

Garrett and Parcells would've won in 94 & 95.

 

[perrykemp]

Cowboys trailed 27-24 at the beginning of the 4th quarter of the NFC Championship game to the Packers that year....

They outscored the Packers 14-0 in the 4th quarter, however, it was a nail biter for most of the game.

That was a mighty good Packer team that went on to go to the next two Superbowls themselves and win one of them.

I don't think it is is a stretch to think some of those coaches listed might have not held up in that pressure situation.

 

[Hostile]

Garrett and Parcells would've won in 94 & 95.

I think so too, but only Wade gets a yes from me for 1995 of the other 3. I have no faith in Gailey or Campo.

 

[cowboyjoe]

Wade wouldnt get a pass from me, remember we had a pretty good team in 2007, but with camp cupcake, turned sour.
Only 2 that I see couldnt win in 95 would be campo and wade. I think gailey could have won, with the 95 team, with parcells, and jason garrett.

to me we would have been flat in playoffs with wade, just like we were in 2007, and players would have been allowed to go party like they did in mexico but jason, gailey, parcells, and jason wouldnt have allowed that.

As far as campo, he couldnt get out of his own way in my estimation towards being a yes man for jerry.

How do you explain our three-game winning streak to win the division in 2009?

 

[Risen Star]

All of them.

I agree. That team was too loaded.

 

[Plankton]

No to all but Parcells. Phillips and Campo are not leaders of men, and the personalities on the team would have been too much for them. Gailey's offense would have caused a revolt, and the team would not have responded to him. No one truly knows how Garrett is as a coach yet.

I was never a fan of Switzer, but I don't see how he can be blamed for the fluky first five minutes of the 94 championship game. Aikman threw a pick, Kevin Williams fumbled a kickoff and Micheal Irvin got stripped after a reception. After that we pretty much dominated the 49ers. Switzer had that team ready to play that day and should have won Super Bowl XXIX and XXX. It was just a nightmare scenario that played out early in that game that did us in.

You could say that the three turnovers were proof that Switzer didn't have the team ready to play. They did not match the 49ers intensity over the first seven minutes of the game.

I might agree with you, but two of the turnovers were by Aikman and Irvin. These guys were born ready to play so I can't blame Switzer for those turnovers.

 

[DeaconBlues]

Since it has always been my opinion that Switzer brought as much coaching as a bowl of pudding, all of them could win that Super Bowl.

They were the only SB winning team to do so without a functional head coach.

It's probably a good thing we shot ourselves in the foot, because based on the referees not calling Deion Sanders' blatant pass interference against Irvin, I think the league wouldn't have minded if Dallas somehow lost that day, if you know what I mean.

 

[Zaxor]

Campo gets dogged on here but if you look at his roster for those 3 years there was some mighty slim pickens and he could not go out in FA like Bill did as we were in salary cap hades...I thought his teams played hard but were over matched the entire time.

now to answer the question was who wouldn't come in and screw it up...well lets look at ego's in the coaches

Wade has no ego so it might have worked

Gailey had an ego so probably not

Campo doesn't so it probably would have worked

Bill has a huge ego but Bill isn't stupid enough to screw it up...so I think he would have made it work

Garrett has a bit of an ego too but I think his message would have been all wrong for that team and as much as I believe Garrett has many great things in front of him I don't think he would have meshed well with that team
