Gruden looking over his shoulder now. If anyone can salvage RG3, it has to be coach cupcake.

Glad Haslett is gone :)
So am I his blitzing scheme became really predictable and Gruden wasn't going to put up with WRs being wide open down field in 2015 lol.

I really enjoyed Romo *****slapping him last Sunday with his blitzing/bluff blitzing crap.

I don't want Mr. Phillips to go to the Commanders simply because I love him as a man, and I don't want him to be on a rival team. I know in this day, "it is just a job", but I don't want to have to root against him, is all. He is a great DC, and he is a great man. I hope he doesn't take this job. He is better than the Commanders. But, admittedly, at least it's not the Eagles.

I was actually being a sarcastic about Wade. And agreed with your one liner and how so many here being worry warts.

They are worried and scared about everything. We have a young damn good well coached team, now isn't the time to worry. We can play with anybody. Enjoy the game and LETS GO COWBOYS.

my sentiments as well. what I really wanted was for him to just take a demotion to DC instead of getting fired but that just wasn't realistic as the team just quit on him. he is a fantastic defensive coordinator and person as well

please do not go to Washington :(

I was perfectly fine with him retiring when Jerry fired him, his friend, when our team quit on him, although I knew that I would miss him. But I loved it when the Texans hired him as their DC, and how great that was, living near Houston and how awesome that was, with his Dad's history with the Oilers and all. I got to see him nearly every week, which was great for me.:) But then he was fired from there, too, with O'Brien coming in and wanting a clean slate, and I really hoped after that and with going a season without a team, that he had just decided to retire to his family and his great life, especially after losing his wonderful daddy so recently. But now he is thrown into the mix again, and I have to wonder why? Why does he want to do this again? Especially in Washington.:(

He might help for a season but like every where else his been he will fade quickly.

Ok.... Our offense is hard to stop so it really doesn't matter to me honestly.

That'd be a good hire for them and probably a good situation for Wade. He can be on the same coaching staff as his son again and he'll almost definitely improve that defense quite a bit in a short period of time. Wade is good at the quick turnaround.

Because Wade would have us "figured" out offensively is what some here would say as you know.

Just like some here are saying similar things about Detroit having an advantage against Linehan due to him coaching there a few seasons. It doesn't mean anything if they can't stop

Dallas from what is doing offensively no matter how much Detroit, or Wade for that matter knows the tendencies of Garrett and Linehan's schemes.

No I'm pretty sure it's because Wade is an extremely good 3-4 DC. He's too far separated from the team to realistically have the knowledge to "figure us out".

Remember it all starts at the top. Therefore that team is fatally flawed.
