4-5 years is about the maximum shelf life for any coach under Jerry...unless you were his hand-picked puppet like Garrett. And none of them except for Jimmy got an NFL HC job anywhere else after

Jimmy - 5 years
Switzer - 4 years
Gailey - 2 years
Campo - 3 years
Parcells - 4 years
Wade - 3.5 years
Garrett - 9 years
McCarthy - 5 years
I imagine a world where Parcell's stuck around a year or two longer, influenced Romo and the organization more, Jerry stood down, and and Bill picked his successor, being it Payton or someone else.

But instead we got Jerry and Stephen running the show.

I am not sure this gives us any clue for the next HC but it's interesting. Stephen was complimentary of MM a few weeks ago but made a point we haven't had the post-season success they had hoped. I wonder if that will still be a major priority.


The title is misleading.....He has hired 5 out of 8 with head coaching experience but not NFL coaching experience. 2 of them won Super Bowls
