The Cowboys are reportedly thinking about hiring… Brian Schottenheimer? –

Marty Schottenheimer’s son, as you’re probably aware. Brian is the Cowboys’ offensive coordinator and has bounced between the college and NFL ranks for something like 25 years now, but has never been a head coach. He’s been an OC for the Jets, Rams, and Seahawks in addition to the Cowboys and had a stint with Urban Meyer’s Jaguars before Urban was shitcanned. Then Doug Pederson came in, did not retain Schottenheimer, and he found his way to Dallas as an analyst. After Kellen Moore left for the Chargers, he was promoted to his current position.

Obviously this is underwhelming if you’re a Dallas fan, but perfect for everyone else in the division. Jerry Jones is a dum dum. He waits to handle business with Mike McCarthy, and they can’t agree to a new contract, so all of a sudden he’s now looking for a new head coach and is behind schedule. Ben Johnson, Aaron Glenn, and Mike Vrabel took new gigs already and likely weren’t interested in a Dallas team where 40% of the salary cap is dedicated to Dak coming off an injury and CeeDee Lamb. Hopefully Jerruh lives forever. I said maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybayyyyy
