I'm starting to think Norv Turner could be the answer the Cowboys needed, he'll be the kind of coach who won't interfere with the defensive coordinator and will concentrate on the team as a whole...
me too. alot of people think that dallas def didnt exist. but this defense was top 4 for 10 weeks. but when they lost ellis they lost that other passrusher, but more importantly they lost a playmaker.
thats the problem with this defense they have 2 playmakers in that front seven. when teams like SD, Pitt, and NE have 4,5, and 6 in that front 7.
carp could end up being a playmaker but he's not there yet. but to eliminate ellis from the equation is basically saying dallas will still have the same read and react defense. akin and james are tackling machines, but they arent playmakers. they're history proves that. ferguson is a hog in the middle but wont be making plays like jamal williams. and the DE's. i got nothing to say about them except they;re boring. so before people think this defense will all of the sudden be a sack machine because of a coach think again. these players just arent those type of players.
after 2 yrs of the same play, u have to think if they're able to get the job done. im pretty sure any team in the nfl would take parcells over phillips anytime, even drunk. but all of the sudden phillips will make these players hungry? wake up!
