What to do with Witten?

[khiladi]

there is a fmr cowboy who has served his time as a coord and ready to be the next hc here...aaron glenn.
like dan campbell...he's a fmr player.
like dan campbell...he's a fmr cowboy.
like dan campbell...he's put his time in as an asst.
but jerry loves to make it hard.

Remember, with Dan Campbell, came a new GM. Their coordinators are young, meaning they aren’t tied to their old ways.

 

[Ranching]

Make him TE coach. Satisfies the owner and fans.

There is zero chance he will be the next HC of the Cowboys.

Surrounded with a mix of experience and solid coordinators, he can be an effective HC...Dan Campbell type....take care of the players...motivation, media, Jerry. Be a presence in the lockerroom and sidelines. I'd rather have that, than a coordinator being HC and not concerning himself with the other side of the ball.

Make it a complete clown circus per below:

- Witt- TE Coach
- Irvin/DEz: WR Coach
- Sanders: CB Coach
- Romo: QB Coach
- Randle: RB Coach
- Lee: LB Coach
- Gregory: WEed Coach

Haha, I was about to say the same thing.

it's idiotic, let's let him grow first, get his feet wet, and then go from there

 

[Coogiguy03]

Well, Jason Witten was a better TE than Dan Campbell so naturally he will be a better coach.

your sarcasm is amazing lol

Exactly!!! The job Glenn has done with the Detroit defense, considering all of the injuries is incredibly impressive. He can also bring some of that Dan Campell toughness.

I hope that if Jerry decides to preemptively fill coaching slots before the HC is hired, he is left with Baby Bubba as the new HC.

 

[OmerV]

It's happening. I'm as sure he's on the team next year as I am Dak Prescott. Whether we like it or not. In both cases.

I'm not speaking about myself, but a lot of people think we should use our 1st round draft pick on a new Risen Star.

 

[big dog cowboy]

As always, I try thinking like Jerry Jones

I hate to guess what kind of prep work that takes.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Is there anyway we can get Deion and his son in a package deal?

I pray the answer is NO.

 

[kskboys]

Just hire him as head coach. We will likely fail, and fail fast, and so get a high pick and hasten the end of the Dak Prescott era.

Now that is what I was thinking!!!

Either he fails and that's what we need anyway, or we found the next great HC. Win-win proposition.

 

[kskboys]

I hate to guess what kind of prep work that takes.

I do know it would involve whiskey.

 

[kskboys]

Probably spot on though with our low IQ GM

Hey, that makes sense. Explains how Jerry relates to the low IQ fanbase so well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kskboys]

We're already the laughing stock of the NFL.
If they hire Jason Witten as the next HC, as much as I loved him as a player, it'll be a disaster for the Cowboys and their fans.
It'll be the best thing to ever happen to the rest of the NFL especially the teams on the NFC East.

Since we're headed for disaster anyway, might as well make it a major disaster!!!!!

 

[Risen Star]

OP doing his usual schtick which consist of offering a low brow thread as click bait towards low IQ fans who reach for low hanging fruit.

[Miller]

I'm not voting because the guy should stay in high school. This while thing is dumb. I didn't like Witten when he left here because of the Romo boys club with Garrett and how he refused to retire. Bad taste. Maybe I'm alone in this. Bringing him in in any capacity is a red flag for the head coach. No. Please no! Th whole concept is embarrassing

 

[Hawkeye0202]

. In the end, I believe Jones will try repeating his Jason Garrett strategy and force him on his next head coaching hire.

I think he will try ( Jason Garrett/Wade Phillips 2.0 ) but here's the problem. Where are you finding a QUALITY coach willing to sign a contract for only three years with a mandate to mentor a hand-picked coach to take his job? IMO only an older rethread near the end would consider it ....think Pete Carroll, Zimm or Belichick.

But it appears that is a major priority for Jerry .....I think Kellen Moore or Zimm will be the next coach.

Jerry logic 101

A lot of folks on here follow Jerry's logic apparently. SMH

To answer the OP - leave him alone. He is fine where he is coaching 16-17 year olds.

 

[charron]

You can bring in Jason as part of the staff then let your OC pick out a role that might best suite him. Honestly it is easy to suggest TE or TE assistant coach but if Jason really wants to grow as a coach he needs to be open to other positions as well like OL assistant.
