That's cute. Inmates have been running the asylum for most pro franchises in all sports for a while. I agree with what you're saying, I am old school as well, but with Jerry passing out foot massages to Dak and Micah, there's only so much a coach can do. Jerry makes every coach a toothless lion
like I said...perfect hire
Interesting. I was kind of shocked when we interviewed him for the DC spot here. I didn't expect anyone else was going to hire him. So from last years team we have 2 DCs and a HC all hired off of a disastrous unprepared playoff blowout by our defense and a less than inspiring end to the regular season
Durde is very sharp and a leader. I think he will so really well. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we end up losing Harris to a DC job now or next year as well
I just don’t know. What DL is it we give Durde credit for developing? Micah was a superstar from day 1 when he was playing LBer and is just a physical freak that seems to use his athletic prowess more than anything. Tank was good before he got here. All of our young guys seem to be disappointing in some way. Last years first round DT was a huge disappointment. I’m just trying to figure out if I should care Durde left or not and so far can’t come up with a reason to care. Maybe we want to give him credit for Osa? He has a raw guy in Williams that hasn’t developed into more than that Amd who still makes the same dumb mistakes. And the DL seem to talk about Quinn when talking about coaching.
i listened to this interview today. Gilmore also said he didn't agree with DLaw, said all playoff teams are tired.
I could see Zimmer being the HC in Dallas next year. Sometimes changes are needed. I have been hoping for Zimmer's return since he left. The coddling approach does not win many Superbowls
Yes please
Tank has played great. Osa has developed. Micah was a star, but I don't discredit his coaching because of his talent. Armstrong, Fowler and Hank have played well. We had a 208 pound safety and a 2nd year player at LB and we couldn't stop the run. I don't put that on the line coach. Mazi sucked, but that may not be on the coach. Pretty obvious the guy has a lot going for him to be made DC in Seattle. I bet he kicks ass. Let's you and I revisit this one in a couple of years
This ^^^^^. Says it all!!
That's not exactly true though. When Micah started to slow down in production, many times it was because teams schemed for him. When he played straight DE they ran right at him or ran quick passes to get rid of the ball quickly. I think Micah is better when he gets moved around to rush vs different players. That's one thing that intrigues me about Zimmer, Barr was a Pro Bowl rush LB under Zim and he doesn't have half Micah's talent. I disagree with PDay that this is a perfect hire, that would be Vrabel, but it could be a very good one
That is true about Micah. I think he needs to be moved around more than Quinn did it. Still if the refs would ever throw a holding flag maybe Micah gets 20 sacks instead of 14. If they moved him around more it harder to scheme and "hold" like you said.
Emmitt is embarrassed and furious with the Cowboys
