News: PFT: Cowboys complete interview with Brian Schottenheimer/2nd interview planned

[Brax]

I would....if I'm the owner, damn right I'm hiring my coach. He's more important than a pencil pushing GM.

Not in Dallas

 

[Ironicalicon]

This second interview is to make it look like they really did their due diligence, when they already knew they were gonna hire him as soon as Mike walked out the door. Or maybe that's giving them to much credit for suggesting they had a Plan B.

 

[CWR]

LOL.

Moore got more out of Dak than Schotty.

So nah, while I don't like either, Schotty is a worse choice. But the homers are gonna line up now and start pushing Schotty as a smart choice since it appears that is the direction we are going at this point.

Most of the homers have been murdered by Jerry. Support will be far and few between.

 

[CWR]

Any updates on this?

So Schottenheimer has had a 2 day long interview and there hasn't been any reporting from the beat writers or national media guys about an impending HC decision? It just kinda feels like if it was going to happen, we would have heard something by now.

I can't imagine there's a rush for BS. Plus Jerry likes to stretch these things out and remain in the media.

 

[805BoysInBlue]

Save some for Prescott.

Hes up there too now.

Look I'm not agreeing with what Jerry said or how he set this structure up,

but I can tell you this what people are trying to tell you is this is just how it is and Jerry's been trying to tell you if he hires A GM and doesn't like what's going on or doesn't agree he's going to countermand him anyway, he's going to go over his head and do what he wants anyway... he's the owner that is what owners do ,and it wouldn't be the first time owners and GM's clash, the GM loses his job, and you keep going through this process... Jerry decided he didn't want to go through that process and just cut out the middleman good bad or indifferent, no one's agreeing with him but this is just the way it is....

But once again,

let me just add a little counterpoint to everyone thinking we need A GM because it will solve all our issues....

there are teams out there that are far worse than the Dallas Cowboys over the last couple decades and have not gotten better the Cleveland Browns will be a good example they haven't even won a division since 1989 why don't you go count up how many owners G miss and quarterbacks save changed just in the last 10 to 12 years and then let me know how that works out for them just firing and changing people and having a buffer with A GM does not guarantee success...​

When we look at the regular season and yes I know that's a sticking point here ,we're not talking about the post season, but getting to the postseason, winning divisions, the Dallas Cowboys have been a top ten team for more than a decade. they've been a top 6 in regular season win percentage.. they're winning divisions .are getting to the playoffs. they've been in the playoffs 5 at the last eight years. that's better than a whole lot of teams underneath them that have normal structures that you're asking for... I think Jerry sees it that way, again I'm not agreeing with him, I'd rather have a stronger football type in between Jerry and the head coach but we've seen that and it doesn't work it hasn't worked for the Jaguars The Jets the Raiders the Browns but really if Jerry is finding a way the way he does it to get to the playoffs more often than say 20 teams below him then this is why he's saying he doesn't believe in the standard structure.

I am not agreeing with him,

I'm just trying to tell you this is the operation of his mind but when you look around including the decision to hire Mike McCarthy in 2020 it literally was the most successful hire it was the best coaching hire of 2020 it's not even close but everyone ridiculed Jerry for hiring Mike McCarthy and since we're talking about the disdain for some of these interviews this is what we heard about Mike McCarthy but Mike McCarthy turned out to be the best hire so out of the six teams like we're in right now but back in 2020 Jerry did hire the best guy.

I know that's not gonna go too far with the people who hate Jerry are blinded with hate to admit that they were wrong in 2020 when they said Mike McCarthy they could've got a better guy well then go look at the other five teams who chose someone different and they were all worse far worse...

Oh God your posts are somehow getting longer.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

Can you imagine this press conference?

Jerry probably won't let Schott say a single word.

Baby steps I guess?

 

[fivetwos]

I’m sure someone has posted it already, I can’t read every post…my apologies…but wouldn’t the Schottenheimer hire be ironical, Alanis, since Daddy’s playoff record was 5-13?

Fine line between ignorance and irony maybe? Unsure.

 

[Aven8]

I wouldn’t even announce this move at all. No presser etc. What an embarrassment

 

[Corso]

When I said ABK(anyone but kellen), I didn’t mean friggin Shottenhammer

That Be Careful What You Wish For stuff is real.

I don’t want either but put me in the camp of schottenheimer over Moore. Schottenheimer while an offensive coach has worked with both the offense and the defense here and has gotten good reviews from both. He also has more a head coach presence about him than Kellen does.

To be clear, I think both options suck and won’t get us where we need to be but I’d rather try it with Schottenheimer than Kellen

 

[Risen Star]

Miss me yet?

 

[SuspectCorner]

So what? It’s not like Schottenheimer is gonna derail all the winning traditions of the last thirty years. After ALL THIS TIME … I’m like ‘NEXT!’

The problem with your fan expectations is that you still have any. See you in August if not sooner.

 

[MS17]

This coaching search of Jerruh's is laughable at this point. He should be real cutting edge and "visionary" now and just hire some programmers to create an AI head coach. With a holographic figure on the field with digital voice. It would be much cheaper and Jerruh wouldn't have to deal with the inevitable ordeal of firing him.
