Is Brian Schottenhiemer willing to be great?

[conner01]

Is Brian Schottenhiemer willing to stand up to Jerry and make the change that will probably be needed this season?
I get that it's his turn to turn Dak Prescott into a winner. If Schottenheimer is for real, he knows this is his test. Assuming he is for real, I imagine that he believes that he can coach Dak and make him into the elite quarterback he has been paid to be for the past four years, but hasn't.
He probably feels that he can instill the traits into Dak that others have failed at. Any real coach would want to believe that he could. He probably thinks he can turn up the pressure and discipline on Dak during camp and end his tendency to choke under pressure when the game gets too big. It's what I would do if I was saddled with Dak as a quarterback. I would put him in very uncomfortable game type situations and demand that he step up and perform. I would ride him to the point that he dreaded hearing my voice, trying to instill discipline that would not allow him to give way to fear.
But will Jerry allow it?
And if that fails, as it likely will, is Schottenheimer willing to make a stand against Jerry and replace him?
That is the test that Schottenheimer faces.
His legacy and the success of the Cowboys hinges on how this one battle is decided.

How would you go about replacing him? Dak is a much better QB than many fans think.

IF he doesn't assert himself at some point, the Cowboys could go 0-17. They might, anyway.
If so, his tenure as Cowboys head coach will likely his final tenure anywhere as a coach.
He surely knows this, so I would hope he has a semblance of a plan.

Geez, 0-17, you really think we are that much worse than last years team?

Dak is a choker. Cooper Rush is/was better.
Replacing Dak isn't hard.

I think, no matter what they say to the media, the rest of the Cowboys know that Dak cannot win tough games.
They had already quit on him last year.
Imagine what this year could be like with a new coach.
If they lose a lot early, I could see a major collapse coming.

What makes you think it could end differently than it did for Gailey, Campo, Parcells, Phillips, Garrett and McCarthy? You are asking No-Schott to accomplish something none of them was able to do, overcome Jerry.

BS couldn't be great even if he tried.

You may be right.
You'd think knowing the history he might want to be better.

He might. I just think the evidence is against him being able to accomplish it.

Nevermind.
