Jerry on Eberflus

[Ranching]

Okay.

None of this explains why you pretend the team is good and attack anyone who doesn't.

Either you're trolling or you don't know football.

I don't pretend and I don't knock criticism....I know rock, constant negativity and trolling...fans that want Dak to get hurt, want to lose by 40, to see the look on Jerry's face....that, I don't understand.

The most we can hope for is a new coordinator. You're not going to get many personnel upgrades when your delusional GM thinks the team underachieved.

Bingo.

This is his sales pitch this offseason. It was the DCs fault. The talent on defense was grand. Stupendous. Monumentally top shelf.

So we fixed the problem by dumping the DC and we don't need to hit FA to fill some holes like LB or S.

 

[Sydla]

They did under achieve. They also need better players. You can have both. Quit focusing only on likes and learn the game.

Anyone with a brain knew Eberflus was a mediocre DC and that if you "learned the game" you would have known that we hired a guy who plays more zone D than pretty much anyone in the league and paired him with a defense that was set up the last few years to be a man defense.

Jerry tried to jam a 5 gallon bucket into the hole the size of a golf ball when he hired Eberflus.

Instead of putting that poor guy out of his misery they are going to force him to coach the remaining 2 meaningless games.

 

[NDGAEDE]

If Eberflus goes, they will just promote from within, or Schotty will hire one of his buddies.

They won't hire anyone based on credentials. It will be based on comfort or the buddy system.

I have faith that Schotty, if allowed, will seek out a good coach prospect. He had zero connection with Adams, and still sought him out. You could argue the OL hasn't been super this year, but the running game has been better and the offense is explosive overall.

My hope, which may be naive, is that he will actually put in the work to find the right guy, unlike Jerry and Stephen

Eberflus didn't fit our players, and then we doubled down and drafted more players that didn't fit Eberflus.

Mind boggling decision making from the Joneses

I like to see Jerry embarrassed because he's a garbage human. What he's done to the team is on the list, but that's the top reason.

I get it, but since I ignore him, it doesn't bother me...men like him don't get embarrassed anyway, it's just an act. I watch the team, and the day I root for them to lose, is the day I stop watching.

I've found its the best way to continue being interested in this team when I know the season is going nowhere. Which I've known since before flowers bloomed here in Maine.

That means he's gone. He's this year's scapegoat.

I’m sorry but he’s not a scapegoat. Yes they don’t have talent on D, but the scheme is dog crap. You know that.

 

[LysleE]

Rex Ryan will be in Dallas next year. You can bank on it.

I hope not…he has lived off his legacy as Ravens DC due to generational players playing for him. The guy is a ESPN blowhard…and has been out of football forever; in other words, the perfect Jerry hire.

Maine? I didn't know they had football in Maine! Lol. To each their own, I guess. I learned that, but the ones that are PITAs are the ones that call me out, for calling someone else out. They come in like mighty mouse.......lol. oh well, you'll have a lot to laugh at, unfortunately

Adams is the OC the same way Schottenheimer was last year.

McCarthy designed the offense and the playbook and was the game day playxaller

Schottenheimer implemented the offense in player meetings and ran practices.

That’s why the offensive play calling is so different from 2025. All of the motion, play action and multi-outcome offensive sets are pure Schottenheimer. McCarthy didn’t do any that stuff

Again, schemes are schemes, but at one point the bloke doing the daily heavy lifting is OC Adams. Junior wasn't edged out of Seattle for no reason. And now The Seahawks are flying high.
It mystfies me keen mind why Adams does not get more love.

Here's another supposed fan that gives Shotty no credit for the Dwarf Tossing and other team building activities.

I did think no the Greek line dancing and the good night phone calls were inspired.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

OUCH!
Me amazement/disgust continues to grow.

The difference between a good coach and bad coach is being able to adapt your strategy based on your personnel.

Ha well it's 2025, there's football everywhere. I'm watching it right now...

Can't beat the hunting, fishing, snomobiling here. I've lived in lots of places...from Adirondacks in NY, Hawaii, DC, Tacoma WA. Moved here 5 years ago from Cape Cod and love it.

Show those posts. Who says all that crap in your mind.

Yeah, you and "Rock" think anyone saying something about Dak is because we want to see Jerra's face. smfh

Rock, Ranch...birds of a feather.

I agree with the general consensus that Eberflus has done a poor job; but to be fair I don’t think he got a fair shake. I don’t think that Jerry gave Eberflus the tools to succeed and now he will be the scapegoat and maybe rightly so, but doesn’t Jerry have the responsibility as GM to provide his coaches/coordinators with quality players; instead of the expectation of doing more with less. I know that a lot of posters minimize the impact of the Parsons trade, but you can’t tell me that this defense was not negatively impacted by not having its best player on the field.
And for arguments sake Eberflus is fired…who is Jerry going to hire to replace him? Who in their right mind other than some retread coach desperate for opportunity to coach would put up with Jerry’s shenanigans? Coordinators fitting Jerry’s criteria are few and far between. I don’t think the Cowboys have the same cache as they have in the past; and is a gross miscalculation on Jerry’s part to assume everybody is clamoring to join the organization.
