He has also been involved in two monumental Super Bowl collapses, and this year’s cluster fuck in Dallas. I’m happy to see his backside.

Mike McCarthy is still the Cowboys head coach, right?

I think Quinn is a good hire for Washington. He's well liked and well respected. He's been to the cups of a Super Bowl victory and now what it takes to get there. He's also willing to let the OC do his thing, even to his own detriment at times.

Washington needs stability and a sense of competency. One of the young guns would be a big swing that could also screw their own process up.

The Cowboys defense was far too reliant on Parsons wreaking havoc. When teams were able to neutralize them, they could exploit the defense.
Teams figured out for the most part, instead of double and triple teaming him, they just ran the play away from his side.

Dan Quinn went 43-42 with Matt Ryan at QB, Vrabel went 54-45 with Tannehill, Mariota, Levis, Dobbs and Gabbert.

Commanders don't have an elite QB and aren't getting one any time soon. Vrabel was the hire. Plus, dude's still in his 40s.

I wanted to root for you guys, but this move kinda saps the mojo new ownership was bringing.

And who ran that defense?

Coaches aren't magicians. They don't magically turn average players into all pros.

Maybe the next Cowboys coach will put Lawrence and Rankins in time machines and make them 26 again. They'll have Diggs back which will help. Not relying on old man Gilmore will help.

It's entirely possible that Vrabel was demanding full control which is why he didn't have too many 2nd interviews.

But they should be able to make in-game adjustments for the better. I'm not sorry to see him going.
