Jerry Jones says Wade Phillips job is safe for now

"for now" being the key words. If the Cowboys are 1-4 after Sunday all bets are off.

    Do we really need another thread for a Cowboys loss, statement or fans reaction?
  • If they lose Sunday, Wade and Jason Garett should start packing.

    The definition of the term "job is safe" when uttered by an NFL owner towards his head coach usually means firing pending. LOL

    Wade has done the least with the most talent so far of any head coach.

    The chopping block awaits ...

    It would definitely be worth another loss or two to get rid of "worthless wade". What a POS coach!

    I guess that is what happens when you are "America's Team".

    Especially when they haven't PERFORMED like "America's Team" for 15 years. image

    And in baseball, managers are hired to be fired; does the same apply to head coaches in football?

    I will add that after this past weekend's game @ Vikings, I listened to KFAN radio out of Minneapolis and everyone that works for the station attributed the loss to a large degreee on the ineptitude of the Cowboys coaching. As opposed to stretching the field on a dinged up Vikings secondary they stubbornly setttled for screen passes to RBs. You saw how frustrated Miles Austin was.

    Think about how large the gap between Peyton Manning and Tony Romo really is... while their stats are in the same ball park, their abilities are a universe away... Romo the robot... Wade is toast...
    Enjoy your collection!

    If you watched the game you would have seen the pass rush that the Vikes were getting on Romo on almost every down. They were all over him and he just did not have alot of time to set up for a long pass down the field. I give the Vikes D more credit than I blame the Cowboys coaching.

    And Parcells did what with the Cowboys? The organization is dysfunctional. They are a cleaner version of the Raiders.

    The Cowboys had zero talent before BP arrived and he left them going in the right diresction. They did not have the success with BP as most Cowboys fans would have liked, but we were much better off after he left than before.

    Exactly. Parcells for the most part built this team which is basically the same team we have had for the last 3 years with a few exceptions.

    As a Cowboys fan I am sick of hearing every sportscaster and reporter saying that the 'Boys have by far the most talent in the league but can't win. If your team is twice as good on paper as your opponent, you should be dominating teams.
  • Seems to me Jason Garett (and Jerry Jones of course) are the bigger problems.
