That died down. I told you guys last week when I came on. Look, could it go back? Could Jerry get desperate here and go, oh man, Kellen Moore, nah, Brian Schottenheimer, no. The Brian Schottenheimer thing is a little bizarre to me because obviously he's on the staff there in Dallas. But Jerry let the rest of the coaching staff that was in place with Mike McCarthy go.

So some of these guys are getting jobs as assistants on other teams now. Some are unemployed. If you're going to hire someone in-house, wouldn't you want to keep the rest of that coaching staff intact? Again, no plan. Gallus had no plan.

If there's been any takeaway from all of this and just from even having conversations around the league, I don't think Jerry Jones believed that Mike McCarthy was really going to walk.

They didn't meet with Ben Johnson. They didn't meet with Mike Vrabel. The two top dogs, they didn't go after because he hadn't made a decision yet. And I do believe that Jerry thought that he'd be able to work out a deal with Mike McCarthy, which is why they're behind the ball on this.

He's the GM. He's got full control. Absolute full control. Just why you're going to see the Kellen Lords and the Brian Schottenheimers get these interviews because these are the type of personnel. These guys have personalities that a, they understand the owner, right? That that's a, that's the biggest challenge in working in Dallas is getting how this is going to work.

It's not like any other operation. Just look at the post game. The cameras are around Jerry. They're not even around the head coach. It's going to be like a, it's like a competition. But if you are, if you're cool with that, if you get it, you understand it. Jason Garrett, Mike McCarthy, you can make it work, make it work.

I think he'll continue to just get shots at head coaching jobs. I just don't know if he'll be able to land one. And I don't know why. I don't know why. I just think he's so valuable and he's so good at being a coordinator. And that's okay.
