You have to fire Eberflus

[Nav22]

wrecking havoc? Parsons had 2 tackles today and only sniffed the statue of a QB twice. He wouldn't make a difference on this unit.
We have a defensive scheme issue. No chance we are the least talented defense in the league and we shouldn't be the worst one either.

Micah's presence makes the entire defense better.

Packers have one of the best defenses in football.

Stop acting like you didn't know either of those things.

 

[Nav22]

The Cleveland Browns just beat Micah Parsons. No single man is that effective if his teams coaching and scheme stink. Parsons wouldn't change much in Dallas this year

LOLLLLL

The Browns scored 13 points, and 7 of those were after an INT that set them up inside the GB 5 yard line.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

I feel like he was forced on Schottenheimer because he knew the Jones’s.

We slowly went back in time to doing the Marinelli zone coverage garbage.

If Dallas doesn’t fire him tomorrow then don’t take this team serious going forward.

I know some of you want to blame players but you don’t have this many coverage busts & explosive plays with it being the players.

They’re clearly poorly coached & you can’t even accurately judge guys if they aren’t where they are supposed to be.

If Junior Schottenheimer didnt want Eberflus then Junior is a weak and passive coach.

I am not foolish enough to think someone Parson would turn the worst defense in the NFL by a mile into a respectable unit. Please stop it. No way anyone can really be that dense.

Give us 2 Parson's and this defense would still stink.

Why? The dumb general manager traded away the player that he was building the defense around. The GM needs to be fired.

[Barnwell] Over the last four years, the Cowboys are the league's best defense with Micah Parsons on the field by EPA per play. Across a 1,039-play sample, they're the league's second-worst defense over that same stretch by EPA per play when Parsons isn't on the field.​

[Bagman]

All current linebackers are T-rash.

Especially Sanborn. I watched him exclusively for about 12-15 plays. He does nothing. He's not blasting ball carriers. He doesn't rush the QB. He basically stands in one spot and watches the play. Its 11 on 10 with him out there. Unbelievable. I can't fathom what scheme would allow a guy to just stand still play after play.

 

[mrmojo]

I think fans were hoping this coaching staff would be good even though many thought Schotty was a reach and safe pick. And we all know Jerry doesn't allow his HC to select his own staff.....so this storms been brewing and the result is a defense that may be historically bad.

See my post above.

 

[Jack Burton]

It's easy to make the case he should be fired. And he probably should be.

But they just won't.

I agree. They'll just keep talking about communication and the show will go on. Because that's how Jerry rolls.

You're the dense one, buddy.

I can't find the stat right now, but in prior seasons, the Cowboys D was MUUUUCH better when Parsons was on the field vs when he was off of it.

Like practically the worst in the league without him, and near the top of the league with him.

Yes, an elite, generational pass rusher makes a HUGE impact.

There's a reason he's making $47M/year.

 

[unionjack8]

I’m not sure you could find a guy to take this job I mean, why would you take this job?
The best they could do is promote somebody.

Al Harris was in the building, upcoming coach, got the best out of his dbs

Thanks, that's the stat I was thinking of.

Swift is a load.

 

[Cowfan75Lives]

Jerry fire someone? Already? No way. We could lose the next 5 games just like today and Jerry would still be preaching his faith in the team. He cares less and less every year.

 

[Aven8]

Jerry loves him some history.

Flus has gotta go. They really have no choice. I don’t care if this is just a 3 win team. No team in n the NFL, even the bad ones, allows this kind of stuff. Hell! Carolina won 30-0 today!

 

[KDM256]

Robert Saleah should have been a priority for this staff. Said it inthe offseason and saying it week 3 of the 2025 NFL season

 

[CT Dal Fan]

The defense without Micah last year wasn't this bad.

The Cowboys simply cannot cover anyone. The run defense has actually been solid. And I honestly don't think Parsons would make that much of a difference. There would be more pressure on many plays, yes, but when receivers are just running free- constantly- we're going to have a LONG season.

Eber should mix up the coverages more.

Play more man press and less zone.

Try to get pressure by using overloads and stunts.

Try some A gap blitz looks.

Hopefully they move on tomorrow.
