Opinion: Next year's DC is Mike Zimmer

[KingintheNorth]

The NFL has evaluated under those 2 statistics to be very good most years

They are incredibly important.

What makes you think Nolan has impacted that in the slightest way for us ?

 

[Whyjerry]

..Mike Zimmer.


Because I'm pretty sure he's getting fired.

For the record, I still want Gus Bradley, but would be thrilled with Zimmer.

I would approve this move. Very much so.

 

[conner01]

If they change I expect a guy dalton knows real well

 

[SackMaster]

With Zimmer's defense to really work, he needs a stud D-Line with three top notch passrushers (2 DEs and DT) and a big-boy runstuffer. If he doesn't have a stud D-Line, he better have a stud group of LBs to keep it all from falling apart.

All of that describes the Cowboys defensive personnel how?

Just askin' .... for a friend ....

 

[fivetwos]

Also...exactly WHO is making this happen?

Jerry?

Who REALLY wants Jerry undermining the HC?

We dont need that.

We need better players. Period.

Not injury prone guys. Not bargain bin dudes looking for a last check. Not guys that have already gotten paid and lazy.

Who REALLY wants Jerry undermining the HC?

You mean like assigning a playcalling HC his OC?

Yep, Agreed. That is the worst.

They are incredibly important.

You need at least competent corners and LBs to get picks and the first 3 weeks they were playing around with putting 4-3 DEs in a 2 point stance. When they got away from that they were better last week.

When the defense has more than 50% of its starters we can get an accurate picture. The second half of the season should give a better description

 

[Aven8]

I’m still surprised Mike didn’t go with Haslet, considering they were in the bunker together all last year.

 

[MikeB80]

yea that will fix it.

and if he says no call Dave Campo.

 

[KingintheNorth]

Dave Campo

I don't know that Zimmer is the surefire answer but come on now, Zimmer is 100 times the coach Campo is.

 

[MikeB80]

I don't know that Zimmer is the surefire answer but come on now, Zimmer is 100 times the coach Campo is.

he is the best that Mike Zimmer.

 

[Teague31]

GROZ 2.0?

 

[fivetwos]

You mean like assigning a playcalling HC his OC?

Yep, Agreed. That is the worst.

Well, yeah. I saw that move from go.

Wasnt a popular sentiment at the time.

Jerry thinks no one noticed.

 

[fivetwos]

I'm pretty sure it's time we all just realize we are screwed until the culture changes....which isn't going to be anytime soon.

 

[fivetwos]

I'm pretty sure it's time we all just realize we are screwed until the culture changes....which isn't going to be anytime soon.

It's really the same thing over and over every year.

Even when they luck out into a good season....expect them to choke the one seed.

Otherwise its maybe win a bad division, maybe win that first playoff game but get blown out next round.

Jerry sat in front of a camera and told us what an advantage that is that we can keep doing this over and over.

He is lost within his own ego and never hasnt been.

Its fully documented yet he still gets away with it.

 

[visionary]

Oh me too.

That would require the Jones buying into "coaching".

They've spent that last 25 years trying to (wrongly) prove that coaching doesn't matter.

wait, are you telling us that @Dre11 is actually Jerry Jones?

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Zimmer would be awesome. Jerry would love it and I'm sure Mike knows him at least somewhat from being a division rival for years.

I also think it's funny when people talk about him being a bad HC. That franchise was going nowhere before he got there. He at least improved them greatly. That year they lost the playoff game when the FG kicker missed a chippy in the freezing cold was a great coaching job.

Too many people seem to think if you aren't a HOFer as a coach, you suck.

Anyway, the only negative I can see about this is that Zim is such a Jerry friend. Might be a bad look in the locker room and for Mike. We don't need anymore Wade/Garrett situations where everyone knows the Jerry crony is waiting in the wings.

 

[Uncle_Hank]

Too bad we can't bring back Matt Eberflus.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

..Mike Zimmer.


Because I'm pretty sure he's getting fired.

For the record, I still want Gus Bradley, but would be thrilled with Zimmer.

I could go for it! He's had a history here and is known to Jerry. The only thing is, I'm not sure it's the coaching here that's the key issue. I think the main thing is we don't have the players. But, if we were to get rid of Nolan, I'd be happy to have Zimmer.
