Who Will Be Cowboys Next Head Coach?

Bucky · December 30th, 2006, 06:43 PM

Most likely he's gone after this season. So, who's next in line?

This from the Dallas Morning News Blog -

Next Cowboys coach

You can cross Jeff Fisher off the list. The Tennessean reported the Titans plan on exercising Fisher's option for the 2007 season, which would take him off the market. Fisher had been linked to the Cowboys by various outlets earlier in the season.

If Bill Parcells does not come back, who do you want to see as the next coach? Here are the choices: Louisville's Bobby Petrino, Oklahoma's Bob Stoops, Chicago defensive coordinator Ron Rivera or Pittsburgh's Ken Whisenhunt, provided he doesn't get the Steelers' job.

And for those who keep bringing up Pete Carroll's name as a possible successor there's this: Carroll proved he was not the kind of coach you would want to replace Parcells after what happened in New England.

Feel free to bribe the Glazers and take Jon Gruden...

Actually, I'd simply hand him and Bruce Allen to you, free of charge.....

Parcells will be coach next season.

So is Switzer.

I think he'll stay with Dallas, but the Cowboys would probably be better off without him. It doesn't do the team any favors with the question always coming up is he coming back or not and the same thing will be asked the year after too. Not that any team that has TO can't handle drama.

I agree Hellwig. Parcell's has done an admirable job building through the draft and bringing along Romo as they have. He's turned J. Jones into a football player and the team is loaded with young talent.

The problem with Parcells lately is he's even more moody and volatile than ever. And the lows aren't that he's pissed off and ever more determined, they're instead filled with his being tired, frustrated with being in the business and seeming to wish he was out of the game. A lot was reported about his friends calling him the week before the Carolina game. They were worried he wasn't himself.

I think he's gone, but few have defied logic on going or staying like Parcells.

I think he'll return,as some moves,such as having Pat McQuistan active for experience,lead me to think he'll be back.

A decent article on the assistant NFL coach Sean Peyton wannabes in consideration ...

Parcells just resigned.

Sucks for the Cowboys...he had to retire after most of the good coaches have been picked up.

our former backup QB to troy Aikman, Jason Garret is the top candidate for the job.
