I can see why Jerry Jones is keeping Wade Phillips. I think the man doesn't have control over his own players, but when he gets involved using some of his defensive coaching geniuses, well let's just say that the Cowboys are able to blow out a team. He should stay another year, but if they end up not going into the playoffs let alone lose in their first playoff game then he should be gone.

Romo should stay. He's young and still a novice. He has many years ahead of him and as much as I hate to admit it he's a pretty decent QB. He has a really good throwing arm, he's good under pressure (when his team is on one accord), and he can make some pretty crazy plays. His only issue is when he's not in his right mind, he plays horribly. Which brings me to the next issue...

There's some talk around the NFL about whether Jerry Jones should let T.O. go. Deion seems to think so and I agree. T.O. may be a great WR, but he brings too much drama to the team. He's not a team player and only thinks about himself and he's part of the reason why Romo puts up some of those horrible games. I'm sure Romo gets a lot of pressure as the QB and T.O. isn't making it any better for him despite whatever T.O. says. I don't believe half the things he says. At some point, he needs to learn to keep his mouth shut and maybe he wouldn't be thrown around from team to team. Had he stayed in Philly, I'm pretty sure they would of had another chance at the superbowl and won.

T.O always likes it when he gets the BALL. Hell he messed up his relationship with two QB's Mcnabb,and Garcia(for the Niners). I'm surprised that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

The main point of an NFL head coach is to take control of your players. Keep them focused on the game of football and poised to win. Wade Phillips is not capable of doing that for the Cowboys team, so he should be out.

I'm not really going to contradict you on that because the Cowboys are the least of my concern. Jerry Jones made his decision and I'm sure he can change it at any time should he please. Yes a coach needs to take control of his own players, but T.O. isn't exactly someone you can just hold by the hand and convince to take a side position in the spotlight. T.O. is no longer Wade's issue, that's something Jones should deal with himself as the owner and GM of the Cowboys. And it's not really just all about T.O. Still, his presence is like a ripple in a pond that starts out small and affects the team as a whole.

But Wade Phillips seems to have to drive; no desire. I remember watching the Eagles and Cowboys game on Sunday. At one point, it was fourth down and one yard to go. Dallas was down by three or more scores. Wade Phillips sent out the punting unit, and Romo had to send them off himself. Romo then gained two yards on a QB sneak for the first down. That's an example of having no control over your team, without T.O. to blame. Also, look at how Roy E. Williams and Patrick Crayton were complaining.

Which I still think is the best thing Romo did in that entire game besides watching him on hands and knees because he turnover yet another fumble. 4laugh Seriously, Wade looked like a deer caught in headlights. Oh, I know T.O. isn't the only person to blame but he is where it starts.

Well the Cowboys' pass protection fell apart in the Eagles game as well. Seems like within a season span, they went from one of the best to overrated and mediocre.

keep wade keep t.o get rid of garret im tired of like 13 rushes a game and like 100 throws a game

Recent news shows that Mike Shanahan would be open to being the head coach of the Cowboys. Jerry Jones still seems to want to stick with Wade Phillips as his guy, but Shanahan would be the likely header to win the job, if it is vacant.

I personally think that Mike Shanahan would be a great fit for the Cowboys. Dallas needs a smart coach that can take immediate control of its crazy and diverse team.

As much as I do not want to give the Cowboys the upper hand, I'll have to agree. Shanahan would be better fitting and could keep the team under control. Jerry Jones, being the egoistic rich overlord he is, would keep Shanahan for a long while as long as he brings them attention by constantly making playoff appearances for them and a trip to the superbowl.

True, but last year the Giants got into the Superbowl and won because of their passing game. They are doing the running game this season because they lost their top WR. Still, it's helping them A LOT.

But when it comes to the Cowboys...I think they do have a 50-50 passing-throwing game. They have top receivers and some good rushers. They use them all, still there were times when they should have stuck to the running game and not have passed down field just to make T.O. happy. In fact, you know when Romo is under pressure by T.O. when you decide to call silly plays that puts T.O. in the back and act like a RB. As if Romo really calls the plays. Still, their passing game is pretty solid when Romo is given enough time to hold the ball.

They Giants didn't get into the Super Bowl last year because of their passing game. They made it and won, mostly because of their defense. It just so happened that there were a few memorable passing plays in XLII. And their running game also was pretty good in the playoffs. Ward was injured, but Jacobs and Bradshaw complemented each other very well.

...And the Giants aren't the leading rushing team this season because of a shift of play-calling due to the suspension of Burress. They led the NFL in rushing even before the suspension, and relied on it heavily from the get-go.
