Nice post. The HC needs a to be an alpha that can change the organization. Not just a coach. Like Bill or Jimmy.
Exactly. These "player's coaches" make for great headlines and lots of smiles....until something like today's game happens. Mike won a Super Bowl in Green Bay, and I absolutely will not knock his resume, but he didn't have to contend with Jerry Jones in GB. We need a guy that commands respect, and deserves it, because they are the absolute best at what they do. If these guys are available, it makes no sense to not go get one. Surely the owner sees this. If not....idk, man, it's tough take this team seriously.

the jones are to set in there ways to hire a young coach who has ideas that will make this team better. we will get another chan gailey headcoach type. might as well keep mccarthy he is the ultimate yes man. mccarthy will get one of his old coaching friends to coach defense when quinn leaves. mccarthy only has one year left so no great young defensive coach is going to come here for one year.
I hope you are wrong but in all reality, Jerry thinks we are close and believes he doesn't have time for a young coach. It probably won't happen until he dies which is bad for all of us. None of us folks that were young during the 90s glory years are getting any younger. We might be Jerry's age at this point before any real change occurs. Sad.

An alpha dog coach that lets Jerry know the buck stops at the head coach's desk not his. Harbaugh or Belichick. Don't see many others that could demand that.

Don't care. Start Trey. Draft someone with a high pick if he sucks. All the results are likely going to be the same. No trophy. Dak ain't the guy. He's shown you that repeatedly. I seriously don't understand the paralysis you guys have that makes you feel like there's simply no other option. He's never going to get it done. Move on.
They are cowards that’s why. I never get the you need the exact answer or else crew. This isn’t jumping out an airplane it’s football lol. We will be okay even if we have to take a step back.

Don't know. All I know is that as a bettor, you never chase your losses. Dak is a loss. Throwing more money at him, and having less money to spend on the rest of the team is not going to make things better. It's going to get so much worse.
No matter your feelings there has to be a plan to deal with the fact we are over the cap already and cutting Dak leaves 60 mil dead money. It’s not an emotional decision it’s about how you could do it

I don't have a name but I want a young coach. Someone like LaFleur or Mike McDonald.

A name that should interest me should be Bienemy but the fact he keeps getting passed over for jobs is weird to me and kind of looks like a red flag.

Belichick x 10000. HC of his stature only comes along once a decade. Everything is in alignment. Gotta pounce!

We could suck still doesn’t matter dak will never win a Super Bowl
That’s not even the question. Moving on from Dak leaves implications that you have to deal with and it’s not an option to not deal with them

You can't fire a retread and hire another. The game has passed this group by. 2023 and early 2024 has made this obvious.

If Jerry and the Tuna can work together then I see no reason Jerry won't give BB a chance.

Now this is better than the fire this one and fire than one threads. Who is out there that will immediately produce better results than three 12-win seasons ending in the playoffs.

There is no hope with a different HC. It really doesn't matter here. We have a good season, people build us up, we **** the bed in the playoffs. HC, QB -- doesn't matter. As long as the Jones's own the team, this is what we'll get
Serving up steaming hot deuces for many years now. Its embarrassing and demoralizing. We are a joke. No one takes the team and the fans serious at this point forward.

Jerry is an enabler. He doesn’t see that

Yes please God
If you want BB, it means you are OK with Dak. No way JJ hires Bill to start a fresh. He will keep Dak and hope BB gets them over the hump. It's time everyone gets in line with a clean canvas and build a long term winner. Go new young coach like Mike McDonald (watch the Ravens), trade some capital, build the trenches long term... Time to do things different. No more re-tread old coaches with past success. Yes, no Garretts either but I think you got to try to find young coaches just like you need to find a QB.
