I’d rather watch a team compete for a division title, than lose to get a coach fired. Even if I don’t like said coach. I'll be here for your next once a month post when we get blown out by a legit SB contender. BTW that's the goal, a Super Bowl not a division title. This ain't High School.

Nextyearfordaboyz Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Being a Cowboys fan can be pretty miserable sometimes. But I suppose I can’t even fathom how miserable it must be for those fans who can’t enjoy being 1st place in the NFC East after week 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be damn hard, esp living in the NE smack in between Philly, NYC and DC! I can admit that I was down on this team after several bad losses. But, I will take 1st place in the NFC East any time during the season for sure!! (P.S. I still want to see some major offensive coaching changes in the offseason! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won SBs within their first five years as head coaches of the Patriots, Dolphins, Packers, and Giants, respectively. So there's no coach who's won any rings for his employer without doing so in his first five years since the 70's? Interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill had 5 years with the Browns Shula 7 with the Colts Holmegren won it in his 6th season, right? Coughlin had 8 years with the Jags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matts4313 Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 Nate Burleson is winning my heart. He just went on a rant about how the Cowboys (and bears) are the type of team that can beat the Saints. That the Saints want to use their "size, speed and horses" but that we are going to make them "play in the mud". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Dungy won it in his 5th with Indianapolis. So Cowher is the only modern(ish) coach to make it past 5 years as HC of one franchise and eventually win a SB for that franchise. Those may sound like very specific parameters, but I think it illustrates how winning in the league is done. It only takes a 3-4 years to reboot a roster, hit on some draft picks and FA signings, and contend. After those 4 or so years, you generally have to start over again. Just how it works in the cap era. And it doesn't take 8 years to establish a culture. The top 37.5% of the league makes the playoffs in a given year. If we hold onto our division lead this year, we'll have made the postseason exactly 37.5% of Garrett's time as full time HC. I guess that's the standard for the most valuable pro sports franchise in the world- winning approximately as much as anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conversely, you can easily argue that many SB winning coaches took longer than 5 years... The skill to win the bowl was there, but it was a learning process to get there. Some just did it with other teams . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
