Should Eberflus be fired?

33 allowed points per game average. Eberflus is not the answer. Even if the players aren't full starter quality, like it was pointed out, the amount he puts them in Zone compared to the rest of the league is telling. In the recent past, this defense has been better in man coverage than zone, yet he's insisting on his system of zone. Flush this turd. I've seen enough. Oh hey, guess what they were in the playoff game that GB stomped us? Zone.
Did Eberflus go out and build the worst LB group in history? Did he draft Smith and Kneeland? Did he give a washed up
Diggs a huge contract? What about the Safeties? He pick that group? Sam Williams?

The personnel is terrible.

Play more 2 man.
 
It is. Sunday night was just more proof. Most here are blinded by their hate of Jerry and Dak to see what’s really going on. You included apparently.

They scored 40 points and ended in a tie. Had the ball in the red zone after a huge play by Tolbert and had to settle for 3- when 7 likely puts it away after packers possession.

A defense that can’t stop a nose bleed with an offense that is high powered and can put up points. We’ve seen this story before.

This has nothing to do with hate, I root for the team every week to win and watch hopefully every week that they do. You’d fair far better if you just admitted that you prematurely got caught up in the moment as a fan after week 1
 
The question surely needs to be considered by the Cowboys. We as fans have no insight into how he’s doing other than the results on the field which have been abysmal. Is it mostly coaching or is it mostly the players? Without being there every day with the team and observing first hand, we as fans have no idea how he is with the players.

I’d be interesting to hear @Ranching thoughts on the topic.
It is funny to see ultra homers like you praise this hire only a few months back, when many of us were pointing out that hes not good, and now want to have him fired 4 games in

LOL
 
He should be fired. What is there to lose. We could bring in someone who can game plan a defense instead of just throwing out the same crap zone. Also we would at least know if its the players that suck. But Jerruah not going to pay anyone to sit on the couch
 
I'm going to give him the dak excuses. He doesn't have any players; nobody is carrying him. Jerry won't let him coach. Why can't he get all number 1 on the front 7? Did I miss anything?

You don’t know me very well.

I didn’t praise him. You, and many others, weren’t even going to give him a chance. That’s not funny. It’s sad .

Yeah, Rock. I'm giving him the dak excuses. I hope he gets 10 years to get better. High-five brother... Ef is enough.
 
Fantastic idea. Promote from within. We need a scheme change.

Yesterday.
Except you would not likely get a scheme change the defensive coaches that are here are here because they worked in this scheme. YOu might get wrinkle or two because the new DC would want to try some things but it will be overall same scheme especially on the back end. Cover 2 in 4-3 and 3-4 are pretty much the same. All coverages are same so a promoted from within DC will still be running some busted Zone scheme on the back end.

Yes, because it has to be just one thing. It can't be both. :rolleyes:

Remember the GB playoff game. We played Zone then too for some inexplicable reason...when our personnel was geared toward Man coverage. Yes, we have terrible personnel. Is our coach working to cover for that to any degree or stubbornly sticking to a system where it's known we don't have the people for? Oh wait.

See? Both can be bad.

Buddy Ryan would not be able to get anything out of this group. You need to have the horses.

True enough, but why keep trying the same thing if it is proven not to work? Make serious changes and see if that helps rather than stubbornly stick to what isn't working. How could it be any worse than 33 points allowed per game on average?

I am all for change.
 
Overall? Possibly.

I don't think they go from 32nd to 8th overnight.

But they do need somebody to change these schemes up. Every week it seems, team needs a big play? Somebody is wide open.
Yeah but Mike Zimmer didn't get his roster going in defense playing well until mid season So that's why we're looking at maybe three more games before you make a decision like this and by the way how about just 16th if you make this defense average just improved with the offense that we have we have a shot at winning nine or 10 games and getting a wild card..

Has to play it doesn't need to be 8th Just improve...

Who won this team say after game eight and it looks the same and it's not improving What defensive position coach can be the defensive coordinator Can it be any better I mean who is that guy because right now none of these guys are big names i'm hearing on the sidelines like we've known some of our position coaches in the past is it whitecotton?

Isn't the eX -49ers defensive coordinator our special teams coach?? wouldn't be weird if he's the guy?
