Interesting choice by the Cowboys. I don’t recall Schottenheimer getting any other interviews around the league in recent seasons. After who they got linked with, I suspect it will be difficult for their fans to get excited by this hire.

From what I read the offense in year two was extremely predictable and stale, even the players, including Stroud, were complaining about it. He also apparently insisted on the C to do the line calls instead of Stroud. So it looked good on the surface to everyone on the outside, but inside the building a lot of people were unhappy.

That’s the impression I got from what I read about the Texans too. From the outside things looked ok, but it was a different atmosphere inside the building. Ultimately it’s usually only a matter of time once your QB starts to turn on a member of the coaching staff.

Slowik will get another opportunity and the Texans need to get the right replacement. It will be interesting to see if a new OC gets Stroud to bounce back to stats nearer his rookie season, or whether he’ll continue to be around the numbers of his second season.

This is a worse hire than Prime. Cowboys are doomed until Jerry is gone. They have talent but the coaching hires are so uninspiring.

This one can't actually be blamed on Jerry. 

From what I've read, Jerry was giving serious consideration to hiring Deion. His son Stephen though, who for the record has generally been shown to be far more football smart than his dad, pushed back against Deion and suggested hiring Schottenheimer instead.

I agree with not taking on Sanders and the circus that would have come with him, but I'm not so sure Schottenheimer is going to be a great hire either.

As for Lady Cowboy Fan, she's very "men" on this choice, but she is happy it's not Deion.

Can’t remember where i saw it, but Matt Eberflus was mentioned as DC for Dallas. Not sure how true it is.

I've seen that in a couple of places. And if I recall correctly he coached there before.

Just more of the same with this guy, if the team stays healthy they will be in the playoffs but go home early as usual. 

Seems like they have the talent to attract some of the highly sought after coaches if it wasn't for Jerry.

FYI: This turned out to be true...

Certainly didn't have that on my bingo card 😕

He was great for them the first time, that's the gig that got him HC looks. 

I'm sure the 49ers are thrilled to have him back.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      These arguments are getting more and more disingenuous from both the pro and anti Bryce crowd. Bryce looked very good for stretches down the final 8 games. He finally showed glimpses of the guy that was projected as a top QB pick in the draft. Bryce also didn't look like a top 10 NFL QB.  I think we are so far removed from Prime Cam that we forget what an elite QB looks like. I could tell that when people were losing their minds and simping for Sam Darnold. This season needs to finally showcase Bryce as a franchise talent. If that doesn't happen, it's time to pivot. There are very few recent examples of QB's struggling or being a mixed bag through the first three seasons of starting and then suddenly becoming frachise caliber players.

      Are you arguing that his height deficiencies and footwork within the pocket have not been a present issue clearly seen on his game tape particularly in the games he struggled in? Because that's simply denying what everyone in this fanbase who have watched the games have seen. It's interesting how hardline BY fans here quickly and effortlessly pivot from whailing about being victimized to becoming the aggressor and hurling out allegations of bias and hatred. And at the end of the day while Bryce Young clearly improved significantly from the first two games of the season the reality of the situation is he still finished 42nd in yards per pass attempt behind Mac Jones and tied with Caleb Williams and 38th in passing yards per game behind the likes of Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell Drake Maye and Will Levis. Furthermore it took Bryce Young 23 games to surpass Panthers legend Kyle Allen's 13 games worth of passing yardage in 2019. So if your argument is he became a head and shoulders better passer over the course of the second half of the season the reality is we're still waiting to see that growth this season. And there is nothing controversial or vitriolic about saying so from the mind of a rational observer.
