There’s lots of moron coaches out there.

Agree with this. It's why the good ones are able to be good year in and out regardless of talent.

 

[Smitty]

I agree, it would kinda be like getting Parcells so late in his career.

As soon as he'd start getting things right, he'd be tired of dealing with the shitfest and bail.

I don’t even think Payton is as good as Parcells ever was.

Unfortunately it seems McCarthy is shaping up to be one of the lousy ones and not one of the few good ones that we thought. Though if McCarthy and his GB track record is no good, then I don’t know what we can expect to ever find that’s an improvement.

That definitely justifies holding onto a moron coach.

I didn’t say it did, did I?

I don't think I agree with that. I think he was trending in the right direction last year. And I think he was given a shit show of a roster this season.

I'm to the point that I don't think he's going to work out here, and I'm more than happy to move on, but I don't think that makes him lousy.

I think had the front office built on what we had last season instead of subtracting from it, we could be really really good right now. Under McCarthy.

 

[Genghis Khan]

True.

 

[Texas Ace]

Yes indeed.

But the difference is, those other ones aren't given a 9.5 seasons to waste away.

Smitty is still so salty about the Garrett criticism, isn't he?

Agreed

Funny Parcells doesn’t have so great a coaching tree, Belichick notwithstanding. Even at that, Belichick looks ordinary without Brady.

Aside from Belichick, Parcells' coaching tree includes super bowl winners Sean Payton, and Tom Coughlin, as well as decent coaches like Mike Zimmer and Todd Bowles.

I'd say Parcells' coaching tree is one of the better ones.

Yeah, it's hard to definitely say that McCarthy's tenure in Dallas has been a success or failure.

I'd lean towards him being a fairly good coach based on what we've seen from him with a healthy, fairly talented and balanced roster.

Hell, even GOAT Belichick looks very ordinary without having the Jimmys and Joes to execute his schemes.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Sounds about right, we are incapable of adjusting. I guess the easy answer now is to live or die by the run.

 

[1bigfan13]

Given the inexperience and overall lack of talent at WR, and the patchwork OL, I think pretty much everyone knew the game plan would probably center around quick passes.

I hate Moore as the OC as much as anyone but the Joneses have pretty much tied his hands with this roster.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Sturm isn't always right, by any means. But he was saying the Bucs basically didn't blitz, just like teams have been doing since that Denver game last year. Bowles is one of the highest-blitzing DCs in the league and even he dialed that way back from what he usually does because, well, the tape doesn't lie. That's the way to stop our offense.
