The Cowboys are expected to hire Mike Zimmer as their defensive coordinator

[Vinnie2u]

Does Mike like them Big or Small... Linebackers that is..

 

[Zordon]

Meh. When is free agency? All that matters.

?????

Cmon brehs where is your pride. Z got this.

[slick325]

All in!

6’0” 225 ish is ideal

About the best we can expect under the circumstances

I’m guessing Wink passed on the interview and they went ahead with mike

I'm not buying the whole interview process. Zimmer was their guy as soon as they called and Zimmer expressed his interest. Done deal.

I'm already in my sprinters stance to dip on these bozos like @Philmonroe they can play if they want to. I better see some signs and trades

 

[Bobhaze]

Am I surprised? No. Excited? No. It’s pretty much what we always do these days.
But I am a Cowboys fan. So all we have is hope.
Hoping Zim can be successful.

100%. That’s why I am saying Wink said thanks but no thanks

I love our coaching staff consisting of previously fired head coaches. We love people in their prime.

 

[Sydla]

I mean if I can try to find some sort of silver lining here, he seems to like having good LBs and DTs.

Other than that, I got nothing.

PS - I am with the others that said Zimmer was their guy all along. Jerry likes comfortable and Zimmer is comfortable for him. The rest of this was a dog and pony show from Jerry thinking we'd all buy his extensive process. Jerry thinks we are dumb.

I hope he leaves Al Harris alone. My biggest pet peeve was his insistence on CB technique so our guys would end up standing next to WRs while they caught ball after ball because they never were able to play the ball.

 

[KJJ]

Hopefully he is a voice of reason to draft another DT to make up for the mistake last year.

No guarantee drafting another DT will make up for the mistake. It could lead to another mistake.

Jeebus

Sounds familiar doesn’t it?

 

[ChuckA1]

Good. He's a good coach.

 

[Gambit]

Not a fan of the hire. I will support him and cheer for best.

Now we know what pieces to look for in FA and Draft.

I wonder what the record is for oldest HC, Oldest OC, Oldest DC combination is?
