If the Cowboys were to part ways with MM, which kind of timeframe do you want them to use. Do you want a slow search where search long and hard, while risking losing a top name? Or would it serve us better to make a quick move to get someone in here so he can name his staff and get ready to put his stamp on the team (if Jerry allows!) Please give your thoughts!

if mccarthy is not back...i want a decisive search.
he didn't take too long to seek out jimmy.
he didn't take to long to seek out bill parcells.
he has surely thought about this.
i would think he has some sort of "what if" short list.
be decisive.
he knows who he wants.
go get him.

then again....
he's not a good gm.
so....

If you remember Big Mac just fell into the position. He wasn't on Booger's short list or any other list.

Expect the same if Big Mac is not retained.

Booger could wait until the first day of spring training to announce he is hiring a new coach and who is going to stop him?

PeeWee would be like, "Hey, I'm just here to have fun with my dad."

Jerry Jones cannot attract a “top name”. His only hurry would be sign McCarthy before another team does. The only thing for sure is Jerry will screw it up.

If MM doesn't return, its a college prospect or Jerry finally fulfilling his destiny.
Whoopy Goldberg would probably be my best guess for Jerry.

Ranch, I am only saying this out of total respect coach.
I'm telling you to fly down and make an appointment to meet with Jerry, you could be the next HC, just saying.

If Big Mike is not offered a new contract, I want Dallas to use the League permitted rules to interview Ben Johnson and Houston's OC within that time frame. Folks like Vrabel or any other former HC should be interviewed as soon as you check with the candidates who are in the playoffs.

Lets make it a long search, yea, really delve into it and waste a lot of time.

That will help next year.

Actuallly, to make sure we get the right one, lets out fox the league and get a head coach after the draft, how awesome would that be?

hey hey, lets wait til training camp and sell it as "Hiding our genius coach so the competition doesnt know"

OOO that would be so much fun, the league would totally hate us.

OOO and lets get that different coach, you know the one who says "the league throws the ball to WR;s, but hear me out, we throw it to tackles" thats really going to drive our opponents insane "and we can have the coach who says "why not let the Center run it?"

that would be awesome.

how much depth do you need? what parameters really separate a lot of coaches?

Let me guess SB wins? Tried it, fired them.

OO OOO playoff wins? nope, did it, fired them

ooo lets be super smart and get a ST head coach, how awesome woudl taht be? No one in the league would see that coming

What exactly are we checking for and who are we asking? the FBI? NSA?

and WHY and this is going to hurt , but i feel JJ would make it a game show, and have a few guys in

MIKE? MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKE MCCARTHY, what would you bring to the Cowboys if you were selected, buzz to late, you cant bring Aaron Rogers" Skeletor laugh.

"up next, Mike Vrabel, Mike, what would you bring to the Dallas Cowboys if selected our head coach? Times up, you aint bringing nothing that no one else has"


even worse than that idea is some of you would believe in it, like its the new way to find out about coaches.

You are not comprehending the process.
First hit the drop-down box for who would actually ever coach here.
After you accomplish that task, it should be plain as day.
SMH well if they want to become a HC or another shot at being a HC, they will come

Honestly, its needs to be a thorough search, not the referral from the good ole boy system like we did with MM. Alot of the guys he should be looking at will be playing in the playoffs. I really hope they dont take the retread approach. Its not many left honestly. I dont want Vrabel, I seen enough of his offense in Tennessee. Pete Carroll just popped back up talking about he wants to coach again but I hope we pass on him as well. Outside of that, I see Pederson get fired but want no parts of that. I feel like there are two outcomes, no retreads available either have us breaking our trend of coaches we like to hire and force us to go with a newer more innovative coach or its going to justify them bringing MM back. And I feel like they want to do that anyway so... we ll see
