Rapoport: Cowboys considering bringing in Jon Kitna to work with QBs

[Rayman70]

I can’t believe this. They have to be looking at someone from a playoff team.

they are looking at ALL options, including replacing Garrett. All options are in play.

Dallas prompting from within his probably the best sign, because it may indicate Jerry is letting Jason finish his contract on his own terms. If they get brand new OC with new offense it may be just another excuse year.

I hate it. We have a golden opportunity now to right the ship. Instead, promoting from within means another season of the same ole crap, and kicking the can down the road another year. AGAIN,I HATE THAT.

By righting the ship, they need to can Garrett. So this is probably the best alternative until Garrett plays out his contract.

Real out of the box thinkers, this FO.

Well, we were in the playoffs

So.......

Who thought they were going to make Moore OC?

See, that's out of the box

 

[Stash]

No up and coming OC from another organization would come and work for this idiot owner and trash HC under these conditions

We will pretend like that was the plan all along

And the same suckers will buy it. Or make excuses, like they've tried for this "don't anticipate changes" statement - and then the OC gets fired. Some will gladly take whatever they're given.

"Thank you sir may I have another!"

Bo’s past her prime. Does she have a daughter?

I have no idea man. She was prime in the Dudley Moore era. Haven't seen her since. Could be splashin the beach in the great beyond with Dudley for all I know

 

[75boyz]

You joke, but I think JJ wants his own Sean McVey. I think it's possible that Moore's our OC for the next few years and gets promoted the HC by the time he's 33 or 34.

There's some truth to this...

Quincy was our Michael Vick

And lemme see, this year our offense was "like the Rams", right?

I'm sure I've left out a few other examples of Jerry comparing his team to other actual successful teams.

More fun times to look forward to.

 

[northerncowboynation]

4-5 record as a Cowboy.

lol, yep like I said, the best backup QB we've had in 20 years not named Buerlein.

Yes she was. That scene running down the beach is permanently etched in my mind and fantasies. It’s right there with Phoebe Cates and the swimming pool scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

it is throwing away another season but they have gotten pretty good at that over the last 23 years they have thrown away a lot of seasons

 

[CowboyChris]

Right, you bring in Kitna to coach QBs because Kellen Moore is the new OC.

How many days until training camp?

that's the fall back plan, if the FO can't land a noteworthy OC.

I think fans want "the version" of Sean McVay. Don't know that I've ever heard JJ mention McVay's name. Probably could find it in a quote somewhere. We'll see how Seanie Sean does to day under the dome. Yep, the Rams have made it one game further. Last time I checked they have won nothing since they resided in St Lew. We'll see what happens today and if the "can't win the last one in the playoffs" follows him around, then we will be the Rams or the Rams will be the Cowboys. Go Saints!

Very sad, but very true.

A true limbo bar of expectations to live up to.

Nuss is the internal leader in the sweepstakes. Some fool on here just elevated Moore, I hope lol.

They are. Us.

 

[Bleu Star]

Strong move. What are they waiting for? Do it.

Bye Kellen...

Sorry @Floatyworm

 

[Hawkeye19]

I get the narrative, but maybe I'm missing something here. What type of friendship relationship did Kris Richard have with this organization before coming here last year and basically running the Cowboys' defense?
I think most organizations (football or otherwise) tend to gravitate toward what/who they know with a sprinkling of outside hires for an expanded knowledge/thought process. This isn't really unique.

I think the issue that I have a problem with is the comfort level the FO has with its own roster and coaches. “We like our guys” is a pretty consistent theme— and they favor “continuity” vs the unpredictability of change or just adding someone “new” simply bc they are new.

What I am advocating for is a true, honest evaluation of what is in place followed by some difficult decisions that require some hard change.

They seem content bc they believe they are “close” to being contenders— and that is not the reality of the situation in my opinion. How many more losses do we have to endure in the postseason to confirm that the current situation is not working?
