Wade Phillips?

Recommended Posts

I'm new, so forgive me if this has been done before, but I didn't see a whole lot in the search function about it. There's been more than enough talk about Cowher, but didn't see much on Wade Phillips.

All the talk about Fox getting the boot and Cowher coming in next season. Why not Cowboys coach Wade Phillips? He hasn't gotten the job done in the playoffs, but he has an overall winning record. I wouldn't be upset if we had winning seasons w/o a Superbowl ring. A Superbowl win would be nice, but I'd take a set of winning seasons over what we have now anyday.

So you would rather win 8 regular season games over 5 playoff games? Statistically that's what you would be trading.

Wade Philips in his 8 complete seasons as a head coach has won 9.3 games per season. John Fox has won 8.3 Phillips is 0-4 in the playoffs and Fox is 5-3

If Cowher cannot pry away Keith Butler from the Steelers to be our DC, then possibly a consideration for Wade Phillips at D/C in the 3-4 would be considered. He has done a good job as D/C in the 3-4.

Not as head coach, our current was much better as a D/C than head coach and they just might be Phillips high water mark also

No thanks on the 3-4 as well. 3-4 personnel are going to continue getting harder to find, and more expensive. Im not sure how many have noticed this but the Pats are switching to a 4-3, I wonder why:)

Dear God man....do you not even watch football.

Wade Phillips is a JOKE of a coach. He would be at the bottom of my list.....and it would be a LONG list.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
