Wink Martindale "in the mix" for defensive coordinator

[coult44]

I wanted Shane Bowen.. just hired by the Giants. Would prefer Vrabel or Carrol at this point or would love to somehow get BB. That’s 4 even though the Giants beat them to one of those choices.

Carroll would be sick. I like Vrable but I think he’s like BB, wants too much control.

 

[Carson]

So we can have GROZ or WINK STINKS!

 

[Adreme]

I like Wink but it is concerning how much better the Ravens were under MacDonald and how the Giants got no better. Now a big part of that is likely the Ravens getting Smith but it is still a concern.

Back up bruh, I wasn’t saying you as in you. I was just saying “people” in general might not like him, but he is connected over there and is usually on top of the pulse.

You quoted me, not the other way around so start that engine up and back it up yourself lol

 

[CTcowboy203]

“The Star” comes with a lot of stuff other teams don’t have to deal with.

Yup, but players building their brand isn’t one of them lol. That starts and comes from their agent and family and inner circle. Every team has players trying to build their brand.

That’s the modern nfl in 2024. That’s not a Dallas cowboy only issue and to say otherwise is just being out of touch.

Sure— players want endorsements and to grow their brand. But the scrutiny, notoriety, exposure for an average Cowboys player is much more than say the average Indianapolis Colts players would be.

The linelight shining in Dallas is on another level than almost any other franchise.

A Dallas player gets a DUI? Huge story on ESPN.

Is there a free agent? You know the Cowboys will listed as a potential suitor.

Dak has a hangnail? Colin Cowherd has an opinion.

The attention and scrutiny create the distractions— and there is simply less of both for most other franchises.

Those things have nothing to do with your original point of players building a brand

Wink Martindale

Is he leaving his game show High Rollers...? ... Tic Tac Dough?....didn't even know he knew football. Jerry is interviewing everybody. Except i see the guy is 90 years old..

 

[Bigrandrn]

steve spagnola come on down, you are the next contest on the price is wrong.

Spags is a hella of a coach, wish we could have him.

 

[Hawkeye19]

My original point is that players in Dallas are devoted to a lot of things besides championship football— building their own brands is simply one thing.

I wasn’t being comprehensive. There are a lot of systemic and organizational issues in Dallas.

Not going back and forth again but while there are many issues in Dallas from an organizational standpoint, players building their own brand is not exclusive to them at all. it’s counterproductive to add that to the list of things that are Dallas specific when that’s inherently standard across every team in the league.

They are 2 entirely separate things.

 

[shabazz]

So we can have GROZ or WINK STINKS!

So is it " 2 in the Wink and 1 in the Stink" or has that changed?

Some folks still go by " 2 in the Coot and 1 in the Boot"

Wayyyyyyyy to emotional bruh, good luck with that… argue with someone else.

And with the Portal in college it's only going to grow more

 

[Blue&Silver]

I don’t care what QB you have, if they have free runners coming right at them, they will make mistakes. With our CB’s( Digg’s coming back ) and a little bit more pass rush our D could be really successful with a blitz happy D. Of course the blitz’s need to be set up well.

Agreed.

 

[Bullflop]

Wink sounds like a pretty positive addition to the C'boys' staff to me . . . here's hoping it materializes!

 

[blueblood70]

Rex Ryans is interviewing ..hmmm well, that came out of left field!!

 

[calicowboy54]

ALL of these D coordinators that are being thrown around have 1 thing in common, they prefer big bodied DT to clog up the middle to let the LB stay clean. i think Zimm is the only one that wants a penetrating 3T
