FEATURED *** The Official New Head Coach Speculation Thread ***

[Jake]

I think this coaching hire is going to be a lot like draft day: pet cats ignored, and plenty of head-scratching when the announcement is made.

mcarthy HC, lewis DC. maybe we can pull a Commanders lol

Well, he would be a Rooney Rule candidate for one, I guess.

The only real reason I can think of is that they are married to this "Seattle" philosophy and he had exposure to it under Carroll.

People are losing their minds over the 49ers D this year, but it was not consistently dominant. They fell way off at the end of the year.

If you want a strong DC candidate, then take Martindale who at least had a consistent season. He also is rumored to want to bring coaches like Joe Brady and/or Dave Aranda with him. That sounds a lot more attractive to me.

Don't look now, but Martindale is headed to the Giants for an interview. I would hate for them to get him.

This is exactly what I believe.

People still think Jerry is going after the hot coordinators - Bieniemy, Saleh, Roman, etc..

Those guys are about as likely to be the next Cowboys coach as I am.

Most Cowboys fans forget that Jerry doesn’t think like any normal GM, nor does he think FIRST about who helps us win. THE FIRST order of importance is Jerry’s comfort which explains the near decade with Garrett.

Exactly. In the SI article about Lewis, the authors mention how Stephen and Marvin have spent a lot of time together on the competition committee. That's literally all it takes to 'fit' in Dallas - are you friendly/compliant enough to get along with the Joneses?

So long as norv Turner follows Ron Rivera and doesn't end up here.

With the current narrative of Jason fighting for his job, I could see Jerry trying to pull something like this off. Jeepers!

JG - HC
McCarthy - OC
Lewis - DC

As someone who loves to watch media people shovel down the crow, there will be some saving grace if Red remains head coach from where I sit.

There is special kind of arrogance when they act like they know something, yet they know and we know they really don't or it would have already been reported.

McCarthy ain't interviewing for OC. He's got too much moxie and self-respect.

But it's not so off the wall to think Red would take a demotion...

HC - McCarthy
OC - Garrett
DC - Lewis

Lewis - DC

That has Jerry Move™ written all over it.

 

[_sturt_]

I don't really care.

Just let the HC be the HC. Really be the HC. No more Jerry control over that element in any way. Back to the Jimmy days... away from dysfunction.

Many will disagree, but I think the hire will be more about stephen's thoughts about what is needed than Jerry's . It is Stephen and mcclay who put this team together. Stephen first called the coaching unacceptable following the 4-12 disaster of 2015. Now he can wipe the slate clean and start over

Whats worse than the head coach we have? The head coach we are going to get!!! O this makes me sick. !

For all intents and purposes we can probably scratch Matt Ruble off the list.

He hates the recruiting aspects of college so a jump to the NFL appears imminent. He covers the Giants job plus he is from that area. He is scheduled for an interview on Tuesday so that may be a match.
