Mike Singletary as head coach would have been the better choice, younger and has the passion and fire. I guarantee that team would have been focused yesterday if he was the head coach.

Last year I wanted this guy as the head coach but I guess Jerry felt it was Wade's opportunity...

Well Jerry is gonna have awhile to think about hiring a big softie as a head coach. Wade is quick to remind 13-3, well 4 now.

how can you guarantee this? i like mike and should we lose garrett i'd like to see us look his way again. but we don't even know with mike out there if we'd have made the playoffs at all, much less how 1 game after that would have turned out.

Mike Singletary would not have been a good choice for this team. He might not get a HC job for 10 years.

Did anyone know if Wade would win?

Of course. It was the coaching. Thats why we lost.

If we can do dumb things under Bill Parcells we can do dumb things under any coach.

Its not dumb coaching its dumb playing.

It's Phillips responsibilty to have that team fired up and focused on the task at hand, which he didn't do yesterday in the playoffs. I'm not saying he should be fired but I will say I'd take Singletary over him.

Huh? Singletary is a great coach...

Where has he ever been a HC ? How much experience does he have as even an DC ? How well have the respective defenses of those teams fared ?

He is still virtually unproven in my eyes. Yes, he was a great MLB 20+ years ago and a pretty good LBs coach these days. No, he is not ready to be a HC for the Dallas Cowboys. Maybe 10 years was a stretch, but I doubt it will be this year unless he takes the crappy Falcons job.

The team was definitely fired up yesterday. Focus is a totally different issue. They played with a complete lack of discipline I hadn't seen in awhile.

Would love to have Singletary but ....
It would have taken us several years to contend, because the 3-4 D would have been thrown out. Singletary played in a 4-3 and I believe he would have gone back to that. Our personnel are not built for the 4-3 at this point.

Singletary made his name while playing in the 4-6 with the Bears. However he also played the 4-3 and some 3-4.

Wow, the Skins fan is the smartest person in this topic.

Singletary runs a 4-3 and thats one of the main reasons Jerry said he didnt swing his way.
