Wade Phillips Fired; Jason Garrett Named Interim Head Coach

I love how JJones is so tough and such a cowboy, "theres gonna be consequences around here" what a chump.

I would rather they kept him, always good to have a talented team in the division hamstrung with a horrible coach!

Yeah I don't like this. I wanted Wade to stay, he has more talent wasting to do.

Talk around here is Gruden and Les Miles, yes I just said Les Miles

Miles? Interesting

Talk around here is Gruden's not interested in coaching anywhere for at least another year.

While I agree that they need more help up front, their real problem in my opinion is not lack of talent, it's lack of discipline. Now I don't know if it's purely undisciplined and people are held unaccountable on the field but also at the team facilities (like it was here with VC)

I think that he has similar mindset problems to Vinnie, even tho' he does seem to be better with talent acquisition (although TO and RW trade argue that some of the talent came from BP). What I mean by that, is he encourages breaking/undermining the chain of leadership on the football field, he has really ignored the importance of the OL, and he gets enamored with mega-talent (again the RW trade and picking DB this year even DB will be a thorn for years to come, he is not what the Cowboys needed with their first pick).

I made the argument before, but there is a fundamental problem when the owner is also the GM. The roles almost by necessity require two polar opposite views, and that is what keeps a lot of teams, and the best teams in balance.

That will make for an interesting year if there's a lockout. In general it will be interesting to see how teams handle hiring coaches w/a lockout looming. Seems tough to drop loads of money on a coach when you're not sure if you'll have games to bring in revenue. On the other hand everyone might need a tough coach to get their scabs in line!

If they were smart they would go after Jim Harbaugh, but they would have to wait till the college season is over.

O well either way it's a great day for skins fans lol

I can't help comparing last year to Dallas this year. Remember how joyful Skins fans were when Vinnie was Fired. Imagine if Zorn had been fired, but Vinnie remained. Would we have been as happy? Until JJ acknowledges he needs a GM, I think Dallas will keep bouncing all over the place. A lot of Cowboys fans will be happy, as we would have if Zorn had been fired, but A LOT will still want JJ to step back.

JJ won't change from his ways because of the 3 rings he got with his hand in the cookie jar. He thinks his method will work for him again, but FA won't allow teams to be built that way anymore.

He had it coming.

Should we look into WP as D. Coord.?
