[QUOTE="Greg C., post: 134982, member: 195"] This Wade Phillips hiring in Dalls looks really bad to me, and this article doesn't help: [url]http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/mike_mcallister/02/09/cowboys/index.html[/url] First, I don't see this team as having the talent to make a Super Bowl run. They are coming off a season that was virtually injury-free, with the best coach in the NFL, and they got eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by a very mediocre Seattle team. Is Wade Phillips going to come in and do what Parcells could not? I suppose they are a young team, but are they going to improve THAT much? It's possible, but it doesn't seem likely. I also think Terrell Owens is going to hate Wade Phillips. He even bad-mouthed Parcells after Parcells left. And Phillips will have a much harder time dealing with Owens' crap than Parcells did. Phillips is not a good public relations guy. I just think it was a lousy hire. Jones needed someone to take over the team after he had already chosen the offensive coordinator and future head coach. Unlike this Sports Illustrated writer, I fail to see this as a clever move. I think Jones is going the way of Al Davis. Both are smart guys who know football, but as they get older, they put more and more trust in their instincts and surround themselves with yes-men. That's the impression I get, anyway. I don't know what really goes on behind the scenes. [/QUOTE]
