what is this, a trick question
who ever is named, everyone knows Jerry Jones is the headcoach running this team
Turnover Tony - BIG IN NAME, NO BIG GAME.
Deke - I thought Romo had regressed last year as a quarterback, Poor Mechaniics,Poor Footwork,Poor decsions, Poor Throws. His game and numbers just don't lie. Tony has to get it in his head, that he has to take better care of the football and make better decisions on the field if he wants to be an elite Quarterback. He has tools, he just has to put it all together on a consistant basis.
Aikman on Romo - When the games are close, you have to be smart with the football and that has been a problem with Tony.
JJT - by the numbers - In Romo's first 23 games as a starter, 17-6 with 50 touchdown passes, 24 interceptions and a 101.7 passer rating. The Cowboys were 12-1 and en route to earning the NFC's top playoff seed.
Since then, Romo is 11-9 as a starter with 34 touchdowns, 23 interceptions and a 85.0 passer rating.
The guy from the first 23 starts can lead the Cowboys to a championship; the guy from the last 20 starts can't.
Jimmy Johnson on Romo - KISS as in "Keep It Simple Sir: (If Romo keeps turning the ball over like he did against the Giants, KISS might stand for, KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID

I would love Decamillis as HC

I voted for him
Get a good OC and DC in there and he will be fine, wasn’t Harbaugh in Baltimore and ex ST coach

Just a rumor
Dale Hansen said a while back that Jerry always had an interest in Bob Stoops.

Ah, Stoops
Guy’s got grapefruits, no doubt. I’m not sure what Stoops deal is though. OU typically has similar problems to those Dallas currently has. Extremely talented teams that consistently under achieve. Not sure he’d be the guy to fix the problems…
I’d secretly love it, obviously. I love Stoops “live by the sword, die by the sword” mentality, and the fact that he demands excellence(and is quite vocal about it), and if Stoops went anywhere not OU, I’d love to be able to continue to cheer for the guy. I just don’t know if he’s honestly the guy to solve all of our problems.
Hopefully there’s some candidate we haven’t even thought of that could potentially blow our minds. None of the usual suspects do anything for me. Joe D would be neat, but he’s a ST coach…

Stoops works 8 hour days apparently
Not going to fly in the NFL.
But if you are talking OU – bring back Barry.

Let's hope it's just that - A RUMOR
Big Game Bob, no thank you.
Harry: Huh! I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this.
Lloyd: I was thinking the same thing. That John Denver's full of shit, man.

We need Mike Shanahan. Please Mike. Come south.

I picked Other
Not because I want that outcome, but because that is what I think will happen.
Dallas needs a coach that will make them tougher.
None of those guys, except for cowher, can do that. I don’t think Cowher would work for Jerry in a million years after he watched Parcells’ bitter divorce with Jerry.
No, although I think Winnie’s epitaph is already written, I think there are names (maybe some DC or OC out there or a longshot that we haven’t mentioned yet like Kirk Frerentz) on Stephen Jones’ list that will slowly work their way into the foreground at a later date.

Since we are going "there"
What do you think about Leslie Frazier?
He’s worked with some of the best DC’s in recent memory. Buddy Ryan (as a player), Jim Johnson, Marvin Lewis, and Tony Dungy. Right now he’s overseeing the #3 ranked defense in the league.

I like Frazier and he's a comer
…but the thing that bothers me about Shanahan is that he may be married to Slowik, who should be ran out of football for how crappy a coach he is.
Look what Denver has done on defense with largely the same group of players.
If Shanahan won’t leave Slowik behind, I’d look to a Holmgren-Frazier-Zorn triumvirate as a fall back strategy.
Also, I favor O-Linemen as head coaches. Who is the NEXT Andy Reid?

Tom Cable?
Just joking.
If there is a change next season, I just hope the new regime doesn’t want to tinker too much with the schemes on either side. I still feel like there is enough talent to keep Dallas competitive for the next few seasons, and I don’t want to see them waste time installing different systems. The window is open now, it would be a bitter pill to swallow.

I'd love to see Cowher..
But as 5blings said (even though we’re not usually in agreement) there is not a snowball’s chance in the Sahara that Cowher would work with Jones. He is a control guy that wants his guys to be his guys… and currently Jerry is so mixed up in the marketing game that he’d never let that happen.
I personally picked Holmgren. He seems like a guy that could put up with Jerry, had the roots with coaching Brett Favre (though it doesn’t appear Tony is any Favre at this point) and also generally puts together a decent product.
I am not one to ever say that a coach needs to go mid-season and I’m not going to say it here..but the uninspired football the Boys are playing leads me to believe that JG or Wade or both have to go…

Even Cowher
was mediocre until he had a QB, right?
by King Man on Oct 5, 2009 8:51 AM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
+1
Cowher is overrated. He stuck with Crydell Stewart and Neil O’Donnell for far too long and probably cost the Steelers a title or two during the Kevin Greene-Greg Lloyd-Rod Woodson era.
I like what Shanahan brings, but no second-time-around Super Bowl winning coach has been able to hoist a lombardi with another team.
If we really want to chart a course to the blings, you have to look at up and coming assistants and college coaches who could bring some degree of innovation to the team.

I hate that we're already conceding the season
But it’s fairly obvious at this point…ugh.
There’s still hope, but it looks like we’ll be back in the hunt for a new HC next year. Depressing.
I hope it’s none of the above. Hopefully we go the route that we haven’t even explored yet. A first time HC not from within the organization, maybe? Please?

Any suggestions?
Russ Grimm?
I don’t see a Steve Spagnuolo out there…

What's up Boys fans, Bronco fan and I mean no harm here.
I think Shanahan would do a great job for you all, but I don’t think he’s willing to take a job with any less power than he had in Denver, which was complete power. I think Jerry Jones likes running the ship, so that would probably cause more than a few headaches. Maybe he wants to just be a coach and nothing else, but given his track record in Denver as a GM and VP, beware of his personnel decisions on the GM level.
You remember Maurice Clarett right? He’s one of Shanahan’s golden boys and is currently sitting in prison.
TAKE IT!!!

I think
it’ll be Shanahan, but I’d want Cowher. I just want a HC who’s team shows toughness.

+1 on the toughness...-1 on Cowher
