It didn’t take long for a few of the Dallas Cowboys to show their true colors. Following the 44-6 beat-down given by the Philadelphia Eagles last weekend, the Cowboys were left licking their wounds and facing many tough questions.

What makes a good NFL Headcoach?

Hiring a  Coordinator to be a Head Coach has a lot more to do with the type of leader and team strategist than their play-calling and strengths on prior teams.  Look at the following head coaches and what their specialties were known for:

Brian Bellick – offensive “guru”  Was the Minnesota Viking’s Offensive Coordinator during their record setting season.  As a head coach in Baltimore, their defense seemed to score more offensive points than their offense.

Tony Dungy – Defensive “mastermind” – Tony was the Defensive Coordinator for the Vikings when they had top defense in the NFL in 1992.  As a head coach, the Colts have a prolific offense, and I can run through/over them on defense.

Bill Belichick – Defensive “genius” – During his days with the Giants, Bill was the defensive coordinator on a SB winning team that shut down the Bills.  Now as a head coach he had the highest scoring team of all time in 2008 and puts on the field a defense that looks like members of the AARP.

Shaun Ellis’ $10,000 snowball

I don’t know if December 21st was officially the day that fun died in the NFL, but it was certainly the day the league got another reason for fans, writers and players to refer to it as the No Fun League. And no one has to pay more than Shaun Ellis.

Cleveland Browns: A few things to think about before you fire Romeo Crennel

Smiling Romeo CrennelIs it really his fault? Can you really blame Romeo for not winning more games with this roster? I’m sure there are plenty of Browns fans out there that say, “I could win 4 games coaching that team.” But the truth is, there are only a few coaches in the league that actually could win 4 games [through week 15] with this Cleveland Browns roster. Jeff Fisher, Andy Ried, Tom Coughlin, and Bill Belichick. Yeah, Bill Belichick, remember him? We’ll come back to him later.

Al Davis Calling Offensive Plays

, Thursday, December 11, 2008 at 4:51 PM Comments (2)

The LA Raiders are in a state of free fall.  This is not news, but with the recent firing of yet another Head Coach, Al Davis may start calling plays himself next year.  Now, there is no doubt that Al has been around and knows more about football than i ever imagine of learning.  But there comes a point in a person’s life where they should just take a step back, know they are past their prime and let things go.  If we ever had a chance for someone to use a video game to make play calls, this may be the time.

Wine 'em dine 'em 69 'em

Wine 'em dine 'em 69 'em

With the state of the current economy on the fritz, i recently started thinking about job security.  Then i started watching Monday Night Football.  And then, i pondered who had hotter cheerleaders, the Cowboys or the Buccaneers.

Then i realized it didn’t matter, they were all hot.  So i got to thinking, who has a shorter career, professional sports cheerleaders or NFL running backs.

Taxi Cab Confessions

Well, well my Pats won the Super Bowl…now I could write pages upon pages stating that ‘I told you so’, or brag about the victory in endless paragraphs. But I will spare you all my jubilee and celebration and instead I wanted to share with you some experiences I have had living near the city.

The best way to travel in any city is a taxi cab, I am convinced of this. Not only do you not have the responsibility of finding a safe parking space, but you also do not need to choose a DD, so everyone can have fun (not that you can’t have fun without drinking, but well you can’t if you’re the only sober one). You also get the adventure of riding with a cab driver. Now most rides are fairly mild and straight business, but on occasion you get a cabbie with a personality, mix this with a non sober group of riders and well, you get some interesting cab rides.
