I'm certainly in a pickle now.......

One of my favorite old school coaches now with my most hated team.
Hen I lived in Vegas,(early to late 90s) every year residents were mailed a local guide book and there was a section dedicated to where to watch your favorite sports team . There were about 8-10 bars for every team, but there were about 25 anti Dallas bars to go cheer against them.

i don't either but my guess would be that fan base is absolutely devastated..

i know i was absolutely devastated when we lost the back to back AFCCG games.. especially the pittsburg game.....
yeah. sometimes it's just better to know you suck and play that way too. hurts a lot less. 3 years in a row, losing on the last play of the game is insanely cursed

Although I think he is better than Gase, he also had one of the top 3 QB's of all time and won 1 fucking SB. ONE!! He got to the playoffs a lot because Rodgers hides lot of flaws. He also had many early exits in the playoffs like after they went 15-1. He has lost 3 of 4 NFC championship games. I will say this McCarthy got a way better roster with the Cowboys with a helicopter owner. When Jerry hires someone then I immediately know that HC is a bitch with no voice. At the end of the day, he has underachieved with a HOF QB so he should fit in perfectly with the Cowboys and follow in the footsteps of Garrett. With all that said I wish the Jets would have hired McCarthy over Gase, but I didn't want either of them.

The Jets only have one all time!......most great Coaches only have 1 or 2 superbowl wins......shows just how hard it is to win even one.

Weeb only has 1, Cowher has only 1, even Parcells only has 2. Dungy had Manning and won only 1 with him.

To put down the fact that McCarthy has only one.....well that's just silly.

I think we would have been quiet until we were at least 1-3 or so. Not as soon as he was hired
context is important.. even with or without that possible 1-3 start that never happened..

i'm just not a believer that jet fans on the whole are dopes.. anymore than most fan bases are at least..

not lost on many of us is that the decades of awful ownership has always been the real joke.. decades!!

Maybe my town here in NY needs an anti-Dallas bar....really good idea.!

I remember probably 10 years ago, the cheatah s losing an early season game and Brady stinking and all the cheetahs fans saying Brady might be done. All fans get carried away

Peyton Manning vouched for Gase... Then went and did 5011 more commercials

All I'm saying is its no great loss that the Jets didn't pick McCarthy. They would have still been 7-9 last year.

While deep down inside I hope you're right......I have a feeling Dallas fans will be enjoying themselves next season.

7-9 ? maybe, maybe not. Can't really say with different coaches and possibly even different players.

I really think most if not all of his success is because he had Rodgers and Favre which Dak is not either of them. All I know is I watched him and the Packers choke away a lot of playoff games especially when they had the better team. And deep down I just want the Cowboys to fail.

Gase pushed for Polite, didn't want to pay for Paradis, who knows what input he would have had on the roster.

I thought the story was that Gase got Mikey Macc canned because he didn't make a hard enough play for Paradis. If this latest story is true then Gase prevented another expensive free agent bust. The only way to overhaul the O line is via high round draft picks.

We'll never know how this would have turned out. I wanted a coach with a proven track record, like McCarthy, and would have been happy with him. I will say that Gase has put together a pretty good staff. Let's see how he does with an improved roster next year. I'm not giving him a pass this year at all - in fact, after the Miami and Cincy games I wanted him gone. But, Miami turned out to be better than we thought, and Cincy beat up our o-line. The bottom line is that he is here and he's our coach. So, let's see what he does in developing Darnold. His only saving grace is that Darnold really likes him and they are starting to get on the same page. That's probably the most important thing. So if they can figure it out together, we might have something.

I'm assuming if McCarthy was hired, then we would still have MMac as the GM. As we learned this season the hard way, MM built a house of cards and McCarthy would have suffered the same fate as any coach with the miserable roster.

Thats a great point. Gase may suck, but he removed one of the worst GM's the NFL has ever seen.
