Head Coach search

Jerry and Stephen have hung their hat on at least winning regular season games the last 20 years, but when you stop and think about it, how much of even that is due to blind luck. They had an undrafted QB play at a near HOF level for 12 years...if they had a clue that he was anything close to that, they would have drafted him. Then they hit on a Pro Bowl QB with a 4th round pick. Same thing. So they had 2 different 4 year windows followed by a few years that they paid their guys but their money had not kicked in....so great QB play for next to peanuts for 12 of the 20 years. And zero playoff success ever. Dak has played with a HOF LT, a HOF Guard, a would have been HOF Center, a Pro Bowl WR, the best RB in the game for a 3-4 year period, and now a HOF receiver. His current defense has had a HOF player and several pro powler/all pro's. Now that really good QB is 32 and coming off his second season ending leg injury, and about to start his $240M deal. And they expect this playoff success to come with a gutted roster and far less talent around him than he has ever had, and a HC that no other team in the league is seriously considering. And Stephen already saying FA is going to be "tight", when half the 7-10 roster are FA's. While two other NFCE teams are playing in the NFCCG. Have things ever looked more bleak since Jerry bought the team and went 1-15?

No. It’s pretty bad. Death by Jerrah. At 1-15, there was hope at least.

i didn't see hope in 89.
i remember thinking Johnson was going to trade Aikman and roll with Walch.

If memory serves, Jimmy wanted to trade Aikman. And when we drafted Emmitt, Jimmy's original target was James Francis, but fortunately the Bengals took him before we came up which led to us taking 22. Great Coach but a little luck never hurts
