Twitter: Schotty + Witten smoke

[John813]

The problem is not that he will hire BS its WHY he is hiring him...Wade Phillips all over again and it ends bad..

At least Wade was a great DC lol.

Such an uninspiring potential hiring.

 

[Ranching]

The only reason Jerry would hire someone like Schottenheimer is because he has no real options and hiring a random guy to coach in 2025 would likely be possible with a 2-3 year contract and an easy person to fire after only one season if someone he wants becomes available and/or is willing to take the job in 2026.

If Jerry wants to waste another year of his remaining life closing his eyes and throwing a dart hoping to land anywhere near the dart board, then by all means.

I'll hope for the best....Go Cowboys!

Jerry gets to save bucks you’re not hiring an offensive player. Schottenheimer will call the plays and be the head coach.
I’m betting his salary will be less than 5 million a year.

We are a national disgrace

Just fire Shotty today after ya hire him, then go ahead and name Witten the hc today. Why wait 2 years? He will be a lame duck HC walking day 1. I wouldn't be shocked if we elevated and extended someone on staff to be the DC.

 

[Zordon]

Talk about repeating the same stupid mistakes over and over again and expecting different results.

Once again he is going to chop the next head coach off at the knees by forcing him to take his guys as coordinators and coaches.

The level of toxicity in this situation cannot be overstated.

Does the rest of the staff cater to the HC or the HC in waiting who could be their future boss?

How do you attract quality assistant coaches to Dallas for a brief 2-3 year stay?

What message does this send to players knowing their HC is a temporary puppet?

And at the end of the day, who is to say Witten is worth all of this? What if he's another Garrett?

There really needs to be an organized boycott of this family starting now. We are in unprecedented territory, fanbase needs to fight back.

...sniff, ...sniff.....Super Bowl Baby..!!

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

We're cooked.

We been for some time now.

Holley says it's happening. I get the sense from Werder and Walker's tweets that it will be a formality soon.

I give up.

There's no point in rooting for a franchise that seems hell bent on just punching its fans in the face.

 

[dupree89]

lets assume this is true. Witten would be brought in as TE coach right? He wouldnt be OC, right? He wouldn't be asst head coach, right?

Right?

Agree...there is a scenario where this goes on another 10 years.....unacceptable.

 

[Big_D]

Go screw yourself Jerry!! Seriously! What a joke if this is what’s happening.

 

[Aikmaniac]

Can't wait to read the behind the scenes article on how this all went down.

 

[DasTex]

I'm guessing Jerry is having buyers remorse on giving that deal to Dak...so this hire has to be someone who Dak is familiar with.

They know they are stuck for next 3-4 years with a bad hand (due to their own stupidity).

Let Schotty take the fall during these next horrible seasons and make one final push after you can get rid of Dak before Jerry leaves this world.

That's all I got...i have no clue what is going on. All is know is NOBODY should give the Jones family any of your money.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Is it possible all this is a front he's going to surprise everyone with a big-time name.......similar to when Parcell was hired.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

We been for some time now.

Jerry doesn't even try to hide it anymore.

 

[Miller]

 

[bayeslife]

While this is likely to happen, I do find it strange that only radio guys have been “reporting” this and all of the actual beat writers haven’t said a peep.

 

[Cowboys93]

Just hire Witten now and save us the two years of the inevitable

 

[Rayman70]

Great, FANTASTIC. Lets hire a used car salesman to run the Lambo Dealership. What could go wrong? My LAWD I am in shame . I cant get behind this team 100%. Been a fan since 1973 but now its bad for my health

I'll hope for the best....Go Cowboys!

ALWAYS!
