BREAKING NEWS: Bill Parcells Retires

[Redskinhog1963]

ESPN is reporting now that it is likely that former qb jason garrett is more than likely going to be the cowboys next head coach!

I hear there was a lot of talk of making him the offensive coordinator. But another, more recent, possibility is make him the coach for 2007. Then in 2008 go after Cowher and move Garrett down to OC so he can learn under him. Unless Garrett just does really great in 2007.

If it were me, regardless of how he does I say if you choose Garrett to be the coach then you stick with him. With that in mind though, I wouldn't choose him to be the head coach quite yet. He's never been more than a QB coach. Make him the offensive cooredinator.

Most significantly though I think this is about Jerry Jones picking a coach he can control. He couldn't control Parcells and I think he really hated that.

That sounds like crazy genius thinking. Let's bring in a HC and only give him one year and then totally change directions. AND LETS PLAN ON THIS! Jones is a moron if he does that.

Agreed, the only way this makes sense (not saying it's not true) is if somehow Jason and the Cowboy players are aware that he is an interim HC. Even that is pretty crazy considering how early it is in the off-season.
I think Norv Turner is the best candidate at this time. The defense is fine but the offense needs solid direction. Turner would be able to work with a decent QB that may prove to be a legitimate Pro-Bowler one day. I don't think Norv would take the OC job. It's HC or nothing for him IMO.

DAMMIT, I was looking for him to replace Joe2 when he retires!
