Pretty good view of the Cowboys head coach search situation as of right now. Lots of info. DO NOT MAKE THIS A DAK THREAD!
Brian Schottenheimer? Kellen Moore? As Cowboys coaching search continues, here are the biggest questions

Ten days have elapsed since the Dallas Cowboys announced they were moving on from head coach Mike McCarthy.
The franchise has yet to name a successor.
Dallas has interviewed four candidates, engaging in informal conversations with at least two more. One candidate, 2023-24 Cowboys offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, appears to be furthest along the road to a job offer. But where do all the moving parts stand? Let’s break it down, with some of the biggest questions you might be asking.
Who are the Cowboys talking to?
Are they taking forever, or does it just seem like it?
OK, so you say Schottenheimer is the favorite. Why?
If the Cowboys don’t roll with Schottenheimer, who seems to be the next likeliest option?
Are there any dark-horse candidates still in the mix?
What does all of this mean for Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott?
The 49ers represented the NFC in the Super Bowl last year. The Eagles enjoyed the honor the year before. And with the Cowboys’ NFC East rivals facing off in the conference championship, the franchise’s 30-year NFC title game drought — much less Super Bowl victory drought — stings even more.
With the Commanders snapping their 34-year streak since advancing past the divisional round, every NFC team but the Cowboys have qualified for the conference title game since the 2010 season.
The Cowboys’ last season in that position: 1995. They hope their next coach will change that.
