I am in the minority on this one— but I voted yes for these reasons:
1. I want it to happen so I am hoping it does lol… there may be some great younger coaches I would get on board with— but BB coming in after another failed season could potentially achieve the kind of reset this team needs, and we are in desperate need for the kind of football first attitude, discipline, and philosophy that he would bring
2. They have set MM up for failure as a lame duck this year— so JJ turning for comfort in the arms of the HC with the most SB wins in league history when it inevitably happens does 3 things: 1) energizes the franchise with hope, 2) empowers deep change within the franchise (if JJ and SJ give him the chance ala Parcells), and 3) is a “big dramatic splash” for JJ and would be a huge PR win going into 2025 following a disastrous 2024. What a way to rinse out the taste of failure— and hey— if BB can’t do it, JJ can at least say he tried his best by hiring the best for one last hurrah
3. BB wants to stick it to Kraft and turning the Cowboys from laughing stock to champions is exactly the kind of franchise transforming legacy that would undoubtedly cement Bill as the greatest HC in NFL history. That opportunity indeed might lure him to the bright lights in Big D. I don’t know how much he has left in his tank, but a rested and motivated BB might still have some juice
4. The fact the Cowboys are not spending money on key extensions at this point is possibly a sign that they are looking for macro roster change should this core group of players fail to deliver again. They appear to be delaying key decisions — are they doing that with a mind to make them next year with the input of a new HC? Maybe.
Probably will be wrong on this one— but it is an interesting potential HC change that would pique my interest in this team again
