First complete game of the year and totally meaningless. Classic red ball.
I'm wondering about some roster moves coming up.
Dak and amari are the obvious ones, but will Jeff heath who has 9 lives be a starter yet again next year?

Dak is 100% coming back (not implying you were saying otherwise). Amari will be interesting.Grapesoda2525 said:

Been saying this for a while now but one of this team's biggest problems is not knowing when to move on or let people go. Too many guys like this....Garrett, Gregory, Maher, Heath, etc...
They have been lacking a true playmaking Safety for years and this year it cost em a playoff spot. I predict Heath will in fact be back in some way shape or form in 2020.

Heath doesnt make that much. He will most likely be here in some capacity. This year the defense was better with him out there. Besides, missing the playoffs this year had way more to do with not scoring a TD in several important games. I wouldn't pin that on safety play. Although a few TOs would have been helpful.
People don't care if heath is on the roster or not. They just want him to be a backup or play limited snaps.Orlando Ayala Cant Read said:Dak is 100% coming back (not implying you were saying otherwise). Amari will be interesting.Grapesoda2525 said:

If you go over the list of guys the cowboys could've had over the years it is truly maddening. Minkah Fitzpatrick, Jamal Adams, Earl Thomas were all there for the taking. if the cowboys actually wanted to generate more turnovers, I have no doubt those 3 guys would've added to the margin.
I haven't even brought up possible free agent signings or draft picks yet. It really has befuddled me. If the stated goal was a super bowl this year ( which it was), then why leave that position so exposed?
Yeah, we need to resign Heath. He's good depth. Hopefully, he won't be a starter, but the issue now is bodies to fill out a roster. He may not be a world beater, but he's better than having a rookie FA fill that role next year.
New coach wont have roster control so yes, heath will be back. Bigger question I suppose is will the new coach be able to choose the staff. The last two cowboys head coaches didn't have that power.
That's the problem with Dallas. The allure to become the head coach of the most well known sports franchise is tempered by knowing the owner is the gm, can't be fired and puts together both the roster and your staff.
It's a tough sell

I think this is overblown. Jerry does not put this roster together.
Jerry needs to find another legend like parcells who has the clout to get Jerry to back off and let the coach do it " his way".jcbaggie04 said:

I've had people say bill cower is that type of guy, but he seems to have no interest in coaching anymore.

Cower isn't coaching.
I know many will think it's crazy, but I could almost see something like this happening with Belicheck. He could be looking for one more challenge before he rides off. Brady is in a clear decline. His assistants are going to be plucked away again....He might just be looking for a change.
I don't think it will happen, but I don't think it's so crazy.
I don't see Belichick leaving brady and brady has shown no signs of wanting to retire.Macarthur said:Grapesoda2525 said:Jerry needs to find another legend like parcells who has the clout to get Jerry to back off and let the coach do it " his way".jcbaggie04 said:

Belichick really has nothing else to prove. He might as well finish his days in New England and if the team stinks after brady retires, he can retire as well.
Yep - highly unlikely to happen, IMO. Belichick seems like the last coach that could tolerate Jerruh to me.
I know and I agree but my point was the perception.
In reality it's Rich Dalrymple and Stephen Jones that do the roster. The perception is still there that Jerry runs the team completely and it's hard to break that enough to get a full list of coaches where that thought won't come into play.

I would argue Will McClay has more involvment in the roster than anyone. Rich Dalyrimple?
Those guys clearly have heavy input in the draft room but it's still Jerry negotiating and signing extensions.
Who is doing training camp invites/cuts and working trades - presumably that stephen jones/mcclay group but presumably jerry is still the final control over any trades.

I don't think that is right either. Virtually everything we've read the last 5 years or so points to Stephen doing the majority of the leg work on this.

So what part of "everything you've read the last 5 years" led to your conclusion from 30 minutes ago that belichick is a leading candidate to be the next coach of the cowboys?

I think we may be talking about two diff things.

Someone else above me already beat me to the punch but long story short, you need someone who makes plays there. Not someone whose ceiling is mediocre with an occasional big tackle. They need to move on from him if he's prohibitive to younger guys developing or adding better playmakers to the roster.Ag Natural said:Orlando Ayala Cant Read said:Dak is 100% coming back (not implying you were saying otherwise).

I would imagine Kraft would have to give Jerry permission to talk to Bill, zero chance of that.

I think you have to keep Dak and Cooper and play this hand before the window runs out on current core of players....draft a safety and a bunch OL and DL for depth

I'm fairly sure that any new coach will ask for core players to be kept as part of the discussions

wow. I thought some of those guys might stay.
Gotta say, if JJ is planning on bringing in a new guy, you gotta clean house and let him bring in his team. In some ways, this goes against what we have thought about JJ for a while....Stephen's influence?
Good sign. It's as much of a housecleaning as the place will get. New guy needs to be able to build and run his show.

The tweet is fake news.
It wouldn't really make sense. Even if given full staff authority, you'd think new guy would at least interview the existing staff. Or some of them. Although it could be a "no assurances for next year even if you are under contract, but we'll see once we hire a coach"
