I’m hoping for 20-0 but that’s not what this thread is about. It’s a what if it doesn’t go as we hope.
It is more about what happens if it doesn't go as Booger hopes.
The one wild card in this is if they start out 0-2, how do they look? Then it becomes a matter of confidence in which coach does Booger think can dig out of the hole? Is it the offense or defense that's the problem?
He is not prepared to lose the first two games but if the East teams win their first two, it gets a little more panicky for him.
Again, disclaimer, I am not predicting this happens or want it to happen, just playing a what if because I am really bored. And this type of stuff always interests me more than another QB is great, QB sucks thread.
And Kellen Moore is as much a part of this as McCarthy. Booger liked him, wanted him to stay on and probably saw him as his HC in waiting. Someone(s) got in his ear and convinced him they'd be better off with McCarthy calling the plays and the QB didn't get a vote.
If McCarthy is struggling and Moore is taking off, what do you think the media is going to be doing? The Cowboys will get their required coverage but Booger will not be happy.
