Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Buffalo center Connor McGovern was tabbed as a replacement for the Pro Bowl games. So chalk up one more pro bowl player drafted by Jerry, after they couldn't get much out of him for four years in Dallas.

Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Mike has punted on getting a head coaching job this year and says he is focusing on the 2026 hiring cycle. Seems likely that he wasn't drawing as much enthusiasm as he had though, which isn't really surprising. Maybe another sub-NFL pro league? It appears obvious that he made the wrong choice in not taking a short term deal to return to Dallas.

I may have miscounted by one or two, but by this source I count 14 head coaches that were calling the plays going into 2024. Offensive coordinators called plays for 18 teams. It's not unusual. Whether it's a good idea or not is debatable. But some very good head coaches that are good at it seem to get their teams in the playoffs fairly regularly. For some teams the head coach is the real OC with a proxy up in the booth that they call the OC, which is basically what Schott is, and several others. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/41018846/nfl-playcallers-32-teams-mike-mcdaniel-sean-mcvay-nathaniel-hackett So if we want to find any room for hope in all that, my stance has been that Mike not calling plays next year may not be a bad thing, and we will find out if Brian is better at not only calling the plays, but with his own version of the scheme. Fans often bitched bout McCarthy's play calling. For me it was mostly how bland it was with not enough wrinkles to get receivers more open, give the qb better checkdown options, and open things up for the running game as well. Mike's game management wasn't great, either. Some new blood on the staff might bring a few ideas that Brian may be more open to using. We'll just have to see.

The little know-it-all punk on the NFL app commercial. Also applies to punchable faces.- Super Bowl LIX: Chiefs vs. Eagles

Two home grown Texas quarterbacks starting in the Superbowl for foreign teams nobody in Texas wants to win.- AFC Championship Game: Bills at Chiefs

So, hiring Kellen Moore would have brought Barkley, AJ, their OL and DL and young stars with him? Dang! Why didn't I see it?- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Joe Brady told the Saints "no thanks." His agent probably told Jerry the same thing, so he punted.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I don't think Sewerani is a particularly great coach, but he has a GM that knows how to build a team. It would be nice to have at least one of those things.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
The league is littered with hot-shot young assistants that failed as head coaches in a fairly short time. We won't know for a few years which from this crop of wunderkind geniuses Jerry should have hired. Then everybody will bitch about the guy he passed up, ignoring the majority that end up being JAG assistants again.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I think the Witten thing was way overblown, just something like the Deion bullshit, a familiar name to get a buzz going. He might show up as an assistant to the assistant deal at some point, like some former Cowboys players have, and see how it goes from there. I think he still has a kid in school that he probably wants to coach. Either way, I think it's such a minor thing for people to just yap about.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I really don't like the Shottenheimer hiring much, but I don't see any big reason for all the meltdowns here. Mike is no big loss. He was never going to outcoach a good coach in a big game with equal or better talent. He hit his absolute ceiling. Now at least the Cowboys will have a shakeup in the staff, and that was badly needed. It's a shame the old OC is now the HC, but at least he's not the OC. Perhaps the new OC hire will add some more dimensions to the offense. That's about as optimistic as I can get. I'm hoping for some good hires, not expecting a magical resurgence that leads the Cowboys to the Superbowl. But at least there is some change, and the Cowboys needed change. It may be shitty change for the worse, but something needed to happen. The other options were not overwhelming, either. It was pretty much "choose the form of your destructor" and we just go rid of the fucking Marshallow Man. Draft some badasses and let it all roll and see what happens.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
He won't be doing clock management. He'll be running the defense. He has some decent cred there.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Eberflus has a better resume than Schott. He sucked as a head coach, but he won't be head coach. It's not a horrible hire. Keeping Zimmer probably would have been better.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I don't feel good about this at all. But I don't feel any worse than I did when McCarthy was hired. Same shit, different era.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
And his name is Schottenheimer, yet after 25 years coaching in the league no other dipshit GM ever thought of him as head coaching material before.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
Well there is a pretty decent RB from Boise State, so they can get that pipeline going again.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I'm good with that. There is already an opening for TE coach.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I'm not happy about it, but I prefer him to midget genius boy Kellen. We'll just have to see if the offensive staff greatly improves, and hope Brian is a better play caller and game manager than McCarthy, which isn't a high bar. It is more or less the same shit as before. Maybe a better new OL coach, WR coach that can get something out of players not named Lamb, and an OC that can breath new life in a worn out scheme.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
I liked Gruden's qb interviews and breakdowns. As a head coach, just another aging system guy, like McCarthy, and a lot of others.- Dallas Cowboys 2024 Season Thread -- Jerrah the Asshat Rides Again
