Mr. Scot

That last part is the hard thing. Potentially easier if there's someone to do it for them.

Confirmed... Archer is as solid a source for Cowboys information as you'll find.

So I suggested elsewhere that rather than be GM, Morgan could be a good person for the role Joe Person has talked about, i.e. an ego handler and a go-between for Tepper and team personnel. I'm probably more comfortable with that idea.

Possible it's just not official yet...

Now we're talkin'

Meanwhile...

Yeah, I remember that

Doesn't sound like it

Is this being asked in a Clint Eastwood voice?

Are we?

The head coaching requests I can get on board with. The GM ones? Not so much.

Basically Tepper is set to try once again to show he can find a better way to do things. Meanwhile the team's doing things the traditional way will be busy winning championships

Tepper wanted to go with an analytics guy last time we had a GM search. Matt Rhule convinced him that he needed a roster builder instead. Sounds like Tepper may actually get his wish this time. Sh-t

Another analytics type

Both are cap administrator types, not talent evaluators.

Possible. Breer said he thinks Blank is ready to take a "big swing" with his next hire.

Lotta smoke around Belichick and the Falcons.

No one's fault equals everyone's fault. Or more to the point, everybody in charge means nobody's in charge. Fitterer came in as a consensus builder, which is likely what helped him get the job in the first place because that's how Tepper wanted to operate. But the reality is you can't run a football team by committee. They needed one person with a guiding vision in charge, and Fitterer was trying to please everyone. Top that off by hiring a head coach with basically the same MO and here we are.

Not as many as I'd have expected so far
