Signed by Cowboys Joe Whitt Jr. new secondary coach

[Risen Star]

I can just see the 20+ point blown leads now....Yummy.

We've got Prescott. There won't be any 20 point leads.

So— we hired the “mastermind” behind Atlanta’s worst rated pass D?! Awesome. We couldn’t stop the run in 2020– now we won’t be able to break up a pass in 2021 lol

Does anyone that works for the Cowboys EVER have to actually earn anything?! This team is an absolute clown show— fitting as we have a PT Barnum type owner selling this product off as if it were an actual competent football operation...

I can already see the smoke from the train wreck next year smdh

When the Cowboys announce it, then it's believable. Can't tell you how many times an announcement with "a source" turned out to be wrong. If it really is a done deal they would have used a name and not "a source". If it does turn out to be true, fine, but I'm still waiting for an announcement from the Cowboys.

lol wow.

I hate my football team.

Hire all of the Atlanta guys.. You know.. The team that sucks at defense.

We dont agree on Dak but wow do we ever agree here. lol.

 

[Winonesoon]

Seams as if the Atlanta, Cleveland, Dallas train rolls on.

 

[jwooten15]

So now our defense will rank near the bottom in 2021 for allowing a ton of passing yards.

Whitt hasn’t done shi*.

Cronyism gets old. Does McCarthy actually want to win or just help his friends get some Jones money?

In 2017 the Falcons rated 8th in pass defense and a vast number of tackles were made by two guys, Deion Jones and SS Keanu Neal. I think the two had 254 tackles between them.
In 2018 they lost both of them (KN for the year, Deion for most of it) and the defense tanked. My recollection these were not the only injuries, as Atlanta's best cornerback was often
injured during this period.

I didn't pay much attention to ATL's secondary to be honest, but they had a lot of rookies and 2nd string talent in play in 2018-2020. My two cents is DQ needs a good SS as a DB anchor.

I didnt want any of the Atlanta staff but again

the defense cant get any worse

 

[The Quest for Six]

Love this hire, when Quinn was hired, I was hoping Witt was the next hire..

Might want to start the process now of getting your name changed to The Quest for Seven.

 

[Avery]

I will take any change knowing that if next year is a farce, JJ will wipe out the entire staff and start over - again.

I don't like that last word, but I'll throw whatever at the window if it sticks compared to our defensive performance this year.

 

[Pantone282C]

When Whitt was secondary coach and passing game coordinator for the Browns in 2019, they finished seventh in the league in pass defense.

That's what I'm talking about.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Some of you guys really need to let the Atlanta thing go. Whitt spent one season there, and that team was under fire before the first snap.

 

[Pantone282C]

Assuming it's true that Whitt has been hired, we will find out the fate of the current DB coaches, Linguist and Harris, soon, right?

Linguist is probably gone.

Gotta give these guys a chance. At least they are familiar with each other and Quinn knows how to reach the players.

If you want to think that every speculation that sportswriters and insiders have made have been 100% right you go right ahead. If you do I have some swamp land for sale.
