They have been talking about his firing on local sports talk radio 105.3 for about 20 minutes now..

Phillips's agent is currently unaware of the situation at this point in time. As far as everyone is concerned, Phillips is still employed.

edit: okay, "sources" are starting to confirm it... lol.

I feel bad, because it's partially not his fault, tony romo has been sucking horribly, and Jon Kitna isn't going to help the situation...

I can't say this will change anything...

I'm hoping we get Cowher. Really until Jerry gets his hands off the team Dallas isn't going to do anything. We are the new Oakland Raiders!!!NNnnnnnnoooooo!!!

As pointed out in the other Wade Phillips thread, Cowher/Gruden could prove elusive to grab. They have seen what life is like on the other side of NOT coaching. Not to mention these two guys are not ones to take orders from the owner like you have to be in Dallas. JJ is killing that organization, just like Art killed the Raiders for a decade plus.

Owners need to allow the people they hire to run the team, actually RUN the team. Sure you cna have a say, but you should not be THE say in what goes on.

my buddy (life-long cowboys disciple), was hoping for Wade to be fired immediately after the game! :awe:

then, trade Romo for 1st round pick, tank the season for another top first round pick.

how epic would that be?

Oh, and give the reigns to Gruden.

uh...... NO.

your friend is a dumbass

romo's not going anywhere.

No way! Gruden's going to the 49ers...

If the Bills and Cowboys and Panthers played each other, who wins? And who's going to end up with the first draft pick?

Bills. They are the only team in that bunch that even appears to want to win. And I'd love to watch Cleveland play Dallas and just pummell the crap out of them.

He's good skillwise but mentally I don't think Romo is a winner. He seems to get shaken too easily upstairs, maybe it's maturity I don't know.

yeah, that's the problem. I think he is very accurate, pretty good decision maker on the field...but when it comes to pressure, he folds like a little bitch. I could be wrong, but I don't think you can coach anyone out of that.

He also takes a lot of risks, which can be admirable, but not everyone likes that sort of QB. and very few people can be as successful as a guy like Favre tossing up jump balls.

They won a Super Bowl in spite of that idiot, not because of him.

I'll never forget Jerry standing steadfastly by Switzer. It was such a joke and Switzer was such an obvious marionette for Jones.

=) Where the hell did they get the moniker "America's Team" anyway? That one drives my wife crazy and I think it's rather stupid considering how the league is spread across the U.S.A..

b/c Texans are fucking idiots.

Don't forget that they also consider the Cowboy's "God's Team."

fuck them. lol.

They said the hole in the roof was so God could watch his team. Look for an asteroid to drop onto it and plug the hole so he won't have to watch them. :D

I don't know, I just think this is all proof that God hates Texas.

Or, I could be just like almost every other stadium, where the whole thing is open :D
