Dallas Cowboys And The NFL:
PLAYERS:
Rob Ryan,
Jason Garrett,
Eli Manning,
Michael Vick
TEAMS: New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys

Rob Ryan has made it clear he’d jump at the chance to become a head coach.
But so far the bombastic Cowboys defensive coordinator hasn’t been linked to any of the five openings in the NFL: Jacksonville, Kansas City, Miami, St. Louis and Tampa Bay.
Speaking at his season-ending news conference Monday, Jason Garrett endorsed Ryan.
“If Rob has an opportunity to go be a head coach somewhere, I think that’s a great thing for Rob,” Garrett said. “I think he’s worthy of being a head coach in this league. I think he does an outstanding job as coordinator. He’s an excellent leader, an excellent coach and we would encourage that for him.”
In Ryan’s first year with Dallas, the defense improved from 23rd to 14th in yards allowed and from 31st to 16th in points allowed. But does anybody really think the Cowboys sported a good defense this season? The Giants and Eagles swept them in large part because Eli Manning and Michael Vick shredde...

Rob Ryan Not to Blame for Dallas Cowboys’ Defensive Woes
The Dallas Cowboys had some serious pass coverage problems in 2011. Now that the painful season is over, many are pointing at Cowboys defensive coordinator Rob Ryan as the cause for the team’s poor play on the defensive side of the ball, particularly in pass coverage.
The Cowboys’ pass defense finished 23rd in the NFL this season. That number is deceiving because Dallas finished...
Jerry Jones expects Rob Ryan to return
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he expects defensive coordinator Rob Ryan to return next season. That's both good news and bad for the Cowboys.
It's good news because Ryan impressed Jones enough in his first season to retain him. It's bad news because Ryan didn't impress anyone else enough to be in the mix for a head coaching job, at least so far.
Under Ryan, the...
Jerry Expects Rob Ryan Back In '12
It appears that Rob Ryan will be back at the helm of the Cowboys’ defense in 2012.
Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported yesterday that owner and general manager Jerry Jones, in a recent radio appearance on 105.3 The Fan, said that he expects Ryan to return for a second season. Hill doesn’t specify exactly what Jones said, but we do know it was a vote...
Jerry Jones Expects Cowboys Defensive Coordinator Rob Ryan To Be Back
Cowboys defensive coordinator Rob Ryan has made no secret of his desire to become a head coach.

Lee Looking Forward To Uninterrupted Offseason
Well, if nothing else positive can be said for the Dallas Cowboys’ 2011 season, we can say this with confidence: This season, Dallas discovered they’d scored a mighty fine linebacker in the second round of the 2010 draft, in Sean Lee--or, as they said at the time of the draft, that Lee is a first round talent.
In a season that saw a disappointing showing from Rob Ryan...
2011 NFL -- Parting Thoughts
Wow. Rex Ryan, what a clown (surpassed perhaps only by his brother and Cowboys' defensive coordinator Rob Ryan).
