You overreacting ninnies. This isn't a vote of confidence, it is a clear indication to anyone interested in the job that we like the players we have and aren't interested in a wholesale system change that doesn't match the talent.

Y'all need to stop listening to Sturm. Now that he works for a subscription news source, he gotta go all controversial to get reads.
So let's get this straight.

If what you are saying is true, then Jones is broadcasting to anyone interested in the job that if they want the job they have to be comfortable inheriting what they are given and that they have zero autonomy to make the changes they need to make in order to win.

Oh boy, we are sure to attract the biggest and best coaching talent around with that kind of sales pitch.

Go back and research what Troy was questioning

Go back and research the actual "offense"... ie, that someone who had never been a quarterback was somehow irrational to assert that a former NFL quarterback was playing the Monday morning QB role.

THAT was the criticism. And of course, then, it only followed that the ones who were being critical agreed with Troy.

Shallow.

Disagree with Stephen, agree with Troy, all of that is fine... but don't bring the irrelevant, silly stuff to the conversation.



... but think I will side with a 3 time SB champ on the state of the cowboys and call there games and is not blind over Junior who never played little league. H--- even Steve Wonder himself sees the problem. He was stating everything that is mentioned on this board and on all of sports shows (radio and TV), so Troy must be stupid like all of us.

Have you ever known of a time in your life when the majority opinion was loud and seemingly universal (at least to those in the majority), but.... wrong? Ever? In other words, does popularity of a given opinion on a given issue assure us with complete or almost complete confidence that it is the right opinion to hold?

Then, have you ever known of a time in your life when the media actually looked to stoke controversy? When they seemed to revel in it? When it even started to become slightly... just slightly... suspicious that they were actually more committed to increasing exposures/listeners than anything else? Ever?

Because your statement seems to indicate answers that seem more than a bit irrational.

Are you still on this, I'm sleep! You feel your way vice versa. We agree to disagree. Peace!

I didn't take that as a ringing endorsement of garrett. Not in the least. Sounded like stephen was saying don't hire a new coach that would change everything. Mcvay didn't change too many players when he got the rams job. He changed the scheme. That's what we need.
