TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys

The hiring of Monte Kiffin sets the Cowboys up to fire Jason Garrett, and he doesn’t even know it. Jerry Jones has proved one thing - He can’t general manage a fruit stand let alone a football team. Bill Parcells installed a 3-4 defense and stocked it. Wade Phillips continued the process, and within a week, Jones ruined it. Don’t worry Cowboys fans, you’ll be rebuilding very soon. DeMarcus Ware isn’t a 4-3 defensive end, Jay Ratliff isn’t a 4-3 tackle, Sean Lee isn’t a deep middle linebacker, and Morris Claiborne along with Brandon Carr aren’t zone defenders. Mike Holmgren must be licking his chops at this move. Garrett wanted Ryan’s huge personality gone, probably because he coached circles around Garrett. Jones can cite examples of a fundamentally unsound defense, but that’s the Ryan brothers' trademark, unconventional and equally disruptive. We wonder why he didn't cite the egregious interceptions Tony Romo throws or the inordinate amount of false start penalties or...

  • Some of what you are saying makes sense but you have to be the dumbest writer on the internet to say that Tony Romo is our Mark Sanchez... Romo is a 3 time Pro Bowler and throws for 4,000 yds EVERY season with one of the worst O-Line's in football... He has the 4th Highest QB Rating of ALL TIME... Mark Sanchez doesn't need to be mentioned in the same breath as Tony Romo and anyone who thinks he does knows nothing about football... Period!

These photos provided by @LK419 shows Tony Romo in an awful uniform practicing with his Indoor Soccer Team.  It appears Romo, who they said suffered a broken rib during the final game of the season against the Redskins is doing just fine.

Via Pro Football Zone  |  January 10, 2013
If the Dallas Cowboys end up hiring Monte Kiffin as their next defensive coordinator, they would then have to switch their base defense from a 3-4 to a 4-3. According to ESPN’s Ed Werder, the Cowboys are confident that DeMarcus Ware can play defensive end and Sean Lee can play middle linebacker.
