i was WRONG about Mr. Ross!

It's always strange to me how we can all root for the same team yet there's a branch of you that's so different from me as to seem completely alien. It feels like I might end up losing this team at some point, because you guys are the majority. The team as it is run now seems to be more yours than mine.
 
I agree, this is why I wasn't all that thrilled about the possibility of getting Fisher. When our defense ended the season as a top 10 unit, why would we want to completely change the philosophy? Also we are some cohesion along the O-line and a good QB away from being a really good team on the offensive side of the ball. I personally would rather an up and coming coach who will work to build on what we have already built, not one who is gonna tear it down and "rebuild it in his image". Also, why would we give Jeff freakin Fisher full control over personnel decisions??? He's not Bill Cowher (who didn't even make personnel decisions in Pittsburgh) who left at the height of their success and you'd mortgage the house to sign. Personally, I wouldn't want to give any HC full autonomy. How many of the great successful organizations have had a HC with full control? They may have had a strong say, but not final say.

Every one of Ireland's picks this year has contributed except Frank Kearse, who was signed off of our practice squad. All of his major free agent signings except Marc Colombo have payed dividends (e.g. Matt Moore, Kevin Burnett, Jason Taylor). All of the free agents he let walk has done virtually nothing on their respective teams. Despite this, he takes far more heat than some of the trash that we've had flow through here at GM. Why everyone seems to hate this guy so much is something I can't seem to understand. I could care less of what type of personality he has or what he asked Dez Bryant in a scouting interview. Just deliver the talent; And from what I can see, he's doing that.

In regards to the coordinatorys, I personally like what I was seeing from Brian Daboll this season, and most coordinators we hire as a HC probably won't fire him to bring in "their guy", unless maybe it's Philbin who's looking to completely change philosophies to a more West Coast style of offense. I don't know what the future will hold for Mike Nolan, as his contract is up, but I don't want to blow this whole thing up. We were competitive, and could've arguably won every game last year, with the exception of the New England game. A good QB and we were at least a 10-6 team this season.
thankyou! i agree with most of what you said. this team is not a cellar dweller at all right now, what this team needs is a couple peices and a good Head Coach who is ONLY a head coach.

sorry to ruin some peoples also but, we do need a QB, but also a RT. we get these things, and even if we get a young qb later on in the draft and go with moore - if we get just a few more peices and a coach who motivates and uses the roster correctly, we are certainly a contender. FINALLY i feel like our FO gets it. for the first time in years.
 
Ehh...I don't care who the coach is, long as he's competent. Just get a QB and the coach will look very good.
