Is that still going? They didn’t make that go away yet? I didn’t know.

Now that you mention it, Jerry wouldn’t hire someone who wouldn’t play full ignorance to what really goes on anyway, just wishful thinking on my part as I think he is a good coach, and I could get into the Belichick angle if that’s what got him here. I’m just tired of things like mixing and matching of coordinators and not having the right personnel in time enough before they change yet again.

Dallas has been nothing but an attempt at collecting players and coaches and hoping it all works well together somehow.
Jerry knows that Gruden was singled out by the NFL office and Jerry has also gone against the league on many occasions.

You got to have someone who will be a disciplinarian. BB will want too much power
So my wish is Vrabel; for this bunch of woosses exactly the guy you need

Speculate all you want but if Jerry is still running the show it's doubtful it makes the kind of difference it needs to

at least get a yes man that can make the team exciting again and develop and build a support system that
would resurrect and permanently guide the highest paid QB in NFL .

Jerry would hand hold Dieon. He'd be picking his staff and personnel. Hows that worked? Belechek is the only guy on the list that could get Jerry to back off and prioritize winning over all the nonsense that currently goes on around the facility. I like Vrabel as the DC/ asst head coach. This team needs to win with defense bc Dak and the offense are never going to be able to carry a franchise to a super bowl regardless of whose calling plays.

This team will never see a Super Bowl with Dak at the helm no matter who is the head coach.
I'm no Dak fan but with the right defense....... we've seen Joe Flacco, Nick Foles, and Trent Dilfer win super bowls. I've been saying for years on here that with Dak, we need a dominant defense and a strong running game. He's a bus driver trying to be a top gun fighter pilot.

Mike Vrabel HC
Chip Kelly OC
Steve Wilks DC

Will never happen but that would by my dream hires. Probably way too much $ for Jerry to spend on a coaching staff…gotta fuel the yacht(s)

With the following factors in mind... coddling the man-child jones while still being respected by the players. Having the relationship with jerry to be able to tell him to backoff... Prime might be the only coach that has any chance of winning there.

Think it really depends on how desperate he is. If they lose out, we might somebody good in here. If they go on a mini run, prepare for Zimmerman/Garrett/Moore.

Page 2 post 25 I did! Thx…
Ah ok. Nah I’ll pass. Jerry isnt going to want to pay what he will want, and those drafts with Mayock that he had a huge hand in were not just bad, but atrocious. Also his personality would take a small piece of Jerry’s spotlight.

Doubt Gruden is coming here.

Obviously, MM is in the last year of his deal and given the current state of the franchise, he will not be brought back. I hope, that for once, we completely BLOW THE STAFF OUT!! Don't keep this guy or that guy. START FRESH with who the HC wants in. But with that said... Who do you want as the next HC of the Dallas Cowboys?

1. Bill Belichick.
Pros
:
Proven Track Record: Belichick is one of the most successful coaches in NFL history, with six Super Bowl rings and a track record of building disciplined, competitive teams.

Defensive Expertise: The Cowboys have often struggled with consistency on defense, even though they have key talent like Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs. Belichick’s defensive expertise could elevate the Cowboys’ defense and make it a formidable unit.

Culture Shift: Belichick’s strict and meticulous coaching style might bring the accountability and structure that Dallas sometimes lacks. His approach could push players to focus on fundamentals and execution, which the Cowboys need in high-stakes games.

Cons:
Potential Personality Clash with Jerry Jones: Belichick is used to complete control over football operations, and Jerry Jones is famously hands-on. This clash could be problematic if Belichick wants more authority than Jones is willing to give.

Rigid Style: Belichick’s disciplined approach doesn’t fit every roster. The Cowboys’ locker room includes big personalities, and it might be challenging to implement his strict culture and system, especially if some players resist change.

Decline in Recent Success: Belichick’s recent seasons with the Patriots haven’t been as successful post-Tom Brady. Some critics argue he may be past his prime or that his coaching style is better suited for rebuilding rather than maximizing established talent.

Offensive Philosophy: Belichick’s teams tend to be conservative offensively. Dallas fans might be disappointed if the team shifts toward a more run-heavy, low-risk offense, particularly with dynamic players like Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb.

Mike Vrabel
Pros

Player-Friendly Yet Disciplined Approach: Vrabel is known for being a strong leader who connects well with players, creating a tough and disciplined team culture without alienating the locker room—a balance that could be valuable for the Cowboys' mix of talent and personalities.

Defensive-Minded Coach with Playoff Experience: Vrabel has a solid defensive background and has led the Titans to multiple playoff appearances, often maximizing his roster’s potential. His experience could help Dallas better utilize its defensive stars and prepare them for playoff success.

Cons
Limited Offensive Innovation: Vrabel’s teams in Tennessee have focused on a more traditional, run-heavy offense. This approach might not maximize the Cowboys' offensive weapons and could lead to friction with a team used to a more dynamic style of play.

Mixed Record in High-Pressure Situations: While Vrabel has had some playoff success, his record is inconsistent in crucial games. This may be a concern for a franchise under constant scrutiny and pressure to perform.

Deon Sanders
Pros

High Energy and Strong Player Appeal: Deion Sanders brings charisma and energy that resonates with players, making him an inspiring leader who could attract top talent and bring out the best in players—qualities he's demonstrated at Jackson State and Colorado.

Winning Mentality and Championship Experience: "Prime Time" is a two-time Super Bowl champion and Hall of Famer with a winning mindset, which could be a huge cultural asset to the Cowboys as he emphasizes confidence, discipline, and excellence.

Cons
Limited NFL Coaching Experience: While Sanders has proven himself as a college coach, he has no NFL coaching experience. The NFL is a different level, and questions would arise about how his style and strategies might translate.

High-Risk, High-Reward Personality: Sanders’ outspoken, larger-than-life personality is a double-edged sword. While it attracts attention and boosts morale, it could clash with the Cowboys' structured environment and lead to media distractions if success doesn't come quickly.

Ben Johnson
Pros

Offensive Innovation: Johnson has been instrumental in revitalizing the Lions' offense, showing creativity in play-calling and maximizing talent. His fresh offensive approach could unlock new potential in the Cowboys’ skilled offensive players, especially Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and Tony Pollard.

Up-and-Coming Talent: As a rising star among coordinators, Johnson brings a forward-thinking, adaptable mindset, which could give the Cowboys an edge in a league increasingly focused on innovative offense and analytics.

Cons
Limited Head Coaching Experience: Johnson has never been a head coach, so there’s a question of how he’d handle the leadership of an entire team and navigate the intense pressure of the Cowboys' high-expectation environment.

Unproven in High-Stakes Situations: While successful in Detroit, Johnson has limited experience in big, high-pressure games like the playoffs. This could be a concern for a franchise that needs a coach capable of delivering postseason success.
While it’s a dark horse look for possibly this candidate, Lincoln Riley. USC just got sanctioned for recruiting violations and he grew up in a little town outside of Lubbock named Muleshoe. He said his dream was always to coach the Cowboys.
