Wade Phillips vs. John Fox

The Cowboys "talent" is overrated except Demarcus Ware.

I'd gladly take Romo over Moore. And Austin/Bryant/Williams/Witten are a better squad than Smitty/Gettis/LaFell/Rosario. They have talent. Give them our run game? Yikes.

They just get too much media attention so people expect too much from them. I'd hate that much attention on the Panthers. Lose one game and the world explodes. Sort of like when the Yankees lose.

Romo isn't in my top 10. Austin is good but inconsistent as hell. Bryant is still a rookie. Witten is a beast no lie. They have talent as does any NFL team but let's not act like it's some team that should be winning super bowls year in year out.

I have always wondered why Phillip's keeps getting HC jobs. He has now proven he sucks 3 times over. At least Fox gets his teams motivated, a little late in the season sometimes, but he does get them going. The only good thing about Phillips being in Dallas this season is he will keep them out of the Superbowl. :lol:

Respect for his dad probably has something to do with it.

And in fairness, he is pretty good as a DC. A guy that's really good as a coordinator has a shot to get at least two chances at a head coaching job.

Wade's on his fourth. You can probably attribute the latest one to Jerry Jones wanting someone he could control as much as anything else.

Down by 18, 8-9 minutes to go and he goes for it on 4th and goal from the 6. With the backup QB who has clearly hit a rough spot. It would have been a big lift for the Cowboys and Kitna if they put points on the board there. It's called momentum Wade.

For lot's of reasons the guy is a dumbass.

BTW I am a Redskin fan, not a crybaby Cowboy homer.

Bum Philips sucks. hes done nothing. Id love for him to keep his job :biggrin:

Bum was his daddy.

And on the topic, Fox is actually a better head coach than Wade. Phillips' teams have never even sniffed the Super Bowl. He has exactly one playoff win on his resume' (the one with the Cowboys) in six postseason trips. And that's with four different teams.

Fox may not be my favorite coach, but objectively speaking, Wade's not in his class by a long shot :nonod:

Good DC? Yeah. But you don't want him as a head coach. He's just not built for it.

He keeps getting head coaching jobs because he can field a super nasty 3-4 D. If an owner thinks that they have enough fire power on O, and need that last little bit on D to push them over the edge, why not?

Don't like him as a HC, but I don't hate him either.

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
