Schottenheimer press conference chatter

[cowboys5xsbs]

That was the most delusional press conference I've ever seen. Not an ounce of common sense came out of either side of that panel.

You don't like winning?

 

[CowboyFrog]

Schotty seems like a good guy I don't hate him I hate Jerry for putting us in this situation.

100%

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

I will say Brian seemed far more intelligent and presented more of a plan than the braintrust

That doesn't take much. Our braintrust are idiots.

 

[bewp7]

what a clown show

i do not know how any one can watch this and have any hope at all for the future even after jerry with stupid stephen he is even dumber

 

[jblaze2004]

Hey Jerry, What do you think about weather today.

Jerry: Well I'll tell you something if I had worried about the weather as much as you, I wouldn't be sitting her today as the owner of the Cowboys.

Very true lol

You havent answered me multiple times when I asked you and your vast experience in coaching what this team is going to do when Schott runs inside zone runs against 3 of the top front 7s in football.

the only person not smart in here is you for lapping up this nonsense like its your first time having wet food.

The running game should be improved with a top back or backs taken in the draft.

 

[MikeT22]

Yeah he’s an old 32

To be fair, age is the least of Daks problems.

"30 years ago when I just bought the team, there was no such thing as weather. It just rained or it didn't"

Fan morale is at all time low. And Jerry decided to spend 25 minutes filibustering about how great he has been. Stephen air quoting a 29 year drought from the NFC championship. They really don't care. They despise fans and their stupid 'opinions'.

Not only did they do nothing to sell this decision, they made it worse!

 

[Plankton]

They had all weekend (plus two weeks after the season) to come up with 'here's our 4 year plan under Schottenheimer to do XYZ better' and they couldn't do it. Because there is no plan. There never was. Never will be. No free agency, only money management. No scheme improvements, only terminology changes. No personnel changes, only continuity.

That's because you are talking about two people in the Joneses who do not have a football philosophy. They couldn't tell you the process behind team building and what goes into it. They couldn't tell you what they look for in players in terms of traits and mental approach. They couldn't tell you about what schemes work in modern football. You could have had the head janitor and cafeteria supervisor up there giving better answers to the questions.

Jerry very clearly does not like Jane. Funny enough, she usually asks the toughest questions, like a regular reporter

What did she ask? I didn’t hear the rest of the PC.

It's so clear. They don't have the first idea what they're doing. Even at the things they think they're doing well! Jerry knows when the bank account is full. Wow! Go Cowboys!

She just asked why it took so long. Then Jerry went on his diatribe about the clock.

 

[rambo2]

They have put all their eggs in one basket and that basket’s name is Dak Prescott !

The basket will get a good running back in the draft.

 

[rambo2]

We will see in March and April and then in August and September.

 

[jblaze2004]

Any clue on the offensive scheme change or are we keeping things the same?

 

[IceStar-D7]

"We're going to win and we're going to win a Championship."
about only

My head coach.

I heard that at least once every year for 30 years.....

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

My takeaway - Schottenheimer seems to be a genuinely nice man who is earnest and positive. But, there may not be a worse place to be a first time head coach, given the spotlight and the two empty suits who surrounded him on the dais. Schottenheimer is the kind of person who you would want to root for, and would probably be a good person to hang out with. However, he has not been especially successful or creative in his prior haunts as a coordinator, and does not seem to have the personality that would allow him to put the Joneses in their place.

Classic hope for the best, but expect the worst with this.

I do hope that Schotty ends up being good. He certainly has paid his dues. I'm curious to see how he does. Question is, how much help will Jerry give him?

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

I can spot an Eagles fan a mile away.

If you're such a Cowboys fan why couldn't you support them 39 years ago?

I was hoping you originally meant just not a p-ing match about it ("negativity").

But you've shown it mean neither.

(I know...your spirits are SKY HIGH today...a brand new era in Dallas Cowboys Football...and you're just yanking chain for jokes!)
