I've met Coach Phillips...

[dmq]

I like the pick of Wade much more than I would have liked Norv or any of the other candidates. I really want to see what an aggressive 3-4 guy can do for this team. I am willing to give the guy a chance for sure. It seems many in the media won't even do that.

Well, I talk to people all around the NFL so perhaps you shouldn't be so cocky. I mean, you coached high school football and heard the guy speak. Big deal. It doesn't mean he's going to be a huge success because you heard him give a pep talk. From the people I spoke with outside the high school level, they all pretty much say the same thing. Great guy, will improve the defense right away, players will love him at first. However, the neagtive most people believe is his style is built for only a couple of seasons because players get tired of his "I'm your buddy" act in the long term and the team suffers on the field (See Herm Edwards, a coach a lot of people compared Phillips to). Of course, since Jerry Jones already has his next head coach picked out before he's ever called an offensive play, that shouldn't be a problem. I didn't get this info from TV, I got it from GM's, coaches and players. But make sure and let us know the next guest speaker you have at your high school. I'll be on the edge of my seat.

Give the guy a break he is asking for opinions and is not saying he is the guys best friend. READ THE POST again before you bring your attitude in the forum. Big deal you talk to NFL guys.... This is the pot calling the kettle black. I get so tired of people bashing one another instead of having an intelligent discussion about the coach, your experiances and beliefs.

I am sure you realize now how much of a fool you have just made yourself out to be...

I have heard from a reliable source that the plan is indeed to have Garrett be the next Cowboys HC. Phillips will be the face of the franchise, while Garrett plays understudy and learns the ropes. And that Phillips was only hired because BP insisted to Jerry that a 3-4 guy needed to be brought in. Take it for what its worth.

There's been enough articles posted to where that may indeed be the plan right now. But who knows how things are going to play out in a few years. Garrett may be the man or he may not.

Wade's sister Andrea is the head swim coach in the town that I live in (Dripping Springs)...I told my wife (who's a coach at Eanes ISD - Westlake), that she's going to have a new best friend!!

Atta boy, get your mojo working.

Is it just me, or did this guy pretending to know GMs just lose all his credibility?

That would be a "Yes". Unless he provides proof or retracts his a**hat comments.

Are you a receptionist for an NFL team or at league headquarters? Anytime I hear someone talk about how much they know, it usually means that don't know much.
