This will work even better than that time they hired Joe Gibbs. I mean, Mike Shanahan.

Sometimes guys, and I know this may come as a shock to some of you, the problems in an organization extend beyond the head coach.

Good point, our problem start and finish with Jerry Jones.

tried and trued also doesn't always work. they already did that with Gibbsv2.0 and Shanahan.

True but there are multiple reasons why those 2 coaches never found success. It was mostly personnel. Half of the board would love to have Parcells and Jimmy back.

Shanahan is not a bad coach by any means. Neither is Gibbs round 2. Many Commanders players loved Gibbs the second time around.

you seem confused. I'm not dogging Cowher as a coach. I do think he is overrated, but his track record speaks for itself. I'm not arguing Garrett is better

what I question is the notion that Snyder has gotten wiser or that a new head coach will fix our problems, or theirs.

If we had a good GM he would fix our problems in two years!!! A good HC will fix theirs immediately, ie; Andy Reid in KC

I question whether Cowher really wants to coach again; and whether he will trust Snyder to really stay out of things. But to me if Cowher takes the job he will make it very clear there is no backdoor to the owner for RG111

Cowher would be very good for some teams, I just don't think he is a good fit in DC...but, you have to give the little bitty owner credit for recognizing that problem and at least TRYING to fix it...in retrospect, the RG3-13 decision has set this team back for a while with everything that they gave up to get him....think of what a guy like Cowher could do with the #2 pick in the draft? He would likely trade back a few spots and pick up some resources...

Funny, last time Jerry hired a real coach was Parcells. A lot of reports say that Jerrys main reason for it was to get his new stadium which he has and the last 7 years we have gotten nowhere with 2 guys who are not head coaches but puppets.

And it is much worse when the "problem" in the organization is "training" his "pet project" head coach.

RS fans don't want Cowher. Consensus is that he's overrated.

I'd agree with this. He's been out of combat for several years, watching from the tv booth. I think the Chip Kellys are the future. New ideas, no established NFL pre-conditions, etc.

No coach has every won Super Bowl with two different teams (well Holmgren did but was admittedly robbed by referees)



Bill Cowher WILL NOT be the first one to do it. (He too, benefitted from referee help to win the one he has).

Andy Reid finished the season 2-5 only beating WASH and OAK.

If that happened here the screams to fire whoever was HC would be heard in China.

yeah, that's part of it. But Danny has never claimed to know a hell of a lot about football whereas Jerry apparently invented the game...

Well, little Danny has made those proclamations in public, but going by his actions, he sure acts like it. I'm going on internet rumors only on this one, but it's said that it was he who insisted on getting RG 3 at any cost. As we can see now, RG 3 might turn out to be special someday, but two top 5 picks ? and maybe another top 5 pick next year as well ?

yes, i think you are right; he has engineered a few acquisitions. maybe Haynesworth too?

I would love for Cowher to go to the Washington Team. That way, I would never ever have to hear people here clamoring for him as the next Cowboys coach. Cowher is old news. Is he going to bring DC Dick LeBeau with him?
