He is probably the only dude they could find that would accept his replacement (Witten) being put on his staff for him.
Well, what Jerry has done as GM for the past 30 years dam sure has not worked..................I mean, that is not a guess, that is a dam fact.
Look on the bright side, all the draft pedos will be getting off for like the next half decade with this hire.
If Jimmy Johnson truly is behind telling Jerry to hire Brian Schottenheimer as his next head coach, no one had better defend Jimmy Johnson ever again! What a stupid move that would be.
That is definitely the stupid plan. Promote Schottenheimer to head coach in order to bring in Jason Witten as an assistant coach and groom him to become the next head coach in 2 - 3 years.
Youz guyz ar winnuhs!
I don't think he is remotely close to toying with fans like that. Jerry has been easily living and operating with a mountain of criticism of being owner and GM for decades. He certainly isn't an insecure person that he has to resort to those appearances tactics. Jerry is highly self directed, obstinate and inept franchise owner and GM and his "one of the average joes" persona is deflective, manipulative and fake.
Jerry has been acting funny all year. I think he is dealing with some kind of health issue and if that's the case I suspect the coaching hire will be all about familiarity.
I agree. I was taken back by Jimmys suggestion. One must wonder if he's that good at evaluating what it takes these days in the NFL on a coaching level. But 1 thing we should give Jerry credit for is, he's obviously talking to Jimmy and he's listening. We can't deny this. We should be very critical of Jerry but he's not making these hires or potential hires outta thin air. I'm willing to see what happens before I cast stones, if shotty is the hire. Now lets say he's named the new HC, then the staff will be extremely vital to his success. Those are the hires I'm more interested in. Im fairly sure Mike Zimmer is retiring. I bet Saleh will be named the new DC. We can't rule out a curveball there either. What about our dline coach Jeff Zuniga? I'm spelling his last name wrong lol...but if you have watched him speak and listened, the guy commands a room. Hès alot like Dan Campbell. He played for 17 years, hes been coaching for a long time now and is a winner. The players universally love the guy and his tenacity. He helped get our dline better as the season went along. I'd like to retain him and elevate Greg Ellis to dine coach. Of course, that means we need to resign them.
That's an insult to the Jets who have a better playoff record, and have been to two CCGs in the 21st Century. We could only hope to rise up to the level of the Jets.
Schotty will abide and hire Witten. But I don't think he's the only prospect willing to do that. What makes Schotty "unique" is he also offers offensive consistency for remedial Dak.
so your gonna go on record and say you think Jerry has a plan? I think you are correct and we have seen this plan before, think less about team building plan and more "He is the next Tom Landry" of the Cowboys...JW is in the fast lane ....lol.
