C.Biscuit97 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Really good DC (I'd take him back in that role in a second), crappy head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWings Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Watching the video on SC this morning gave me bad flashbacks....he stumbled over his words, never answered the questions, and generally came off looking incompetent. He should really stick to being a DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Wade was indignant last week at his presser about those questioning his job results and job security. He was (for Wade) somewhat defiant and insulted. He didn't have the good sense to understand that his problems in Dallas have been due to the repetitive December swoons. So far they are 0-1 this December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1billsfan Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 IMO Wade Phillips and John Fox are both history. This just seems like a forgone conclusion... Shanahan to the Cowboys (Jones won't be outbid by Snyder) Cowher to the Panthers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was (for Wade) somewhat defiant and insulted. He didn't have the good sense to understand that his problems in Dallas have been due to the repetitive December swoons. So far they are 0-1 this December. I thought it was a snotty question - what was he to answer? He replied that they are 8-4, and we'll see what happens in the next 4 games. I'm sure he is well on top of his club's December records - and need not be reminded by some young twink who somehow got a press pass. DAL hasn't performed well in the playoffs for several years - but they get there more than not. See BUF, and the team that plies their trade where I reside. Bitching at Phillips makes little sense, to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthICE Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 This guy has to be the biggest wimp to ever coach. His dad must be embarrassed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Wade has had 3 full time Head Coaching jobs in the NFL.

RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 The record is impressive in its way, but it continues to beg the question: Why is it that this guy is incapable of keeping the confidence of his owner long enough to keep a job? Three different owners, in different markets, decided (or in JJ's case, are deciding) that he is not worth keeping longer than three years. Why do you suppose that is so? Is it is manner? That he does not inspire confidence that he knows how to handle adversity? I am genuinely puzzled. Wade has had 3 full time Head Coaching jobs in the NFL.

Here is what those numbers are worth, to me. In Denver he worked for an owner with a clear commitment to winning. Look at what the guys before him and after him did. Both Reeves and Shanahan outperformed Wade. In Buffalo, he inherited a team with a very strong front office. The Bills were aggressive in going after top talent and spent lots of money on players, to the point that when he and then Butler left, the Bills were in very bad cap shape. He coached a very talented squad. In Dallas again he again has worked for an owner with a commitment to winning and spending to win. In his time there, Wade has coached very talented football teams. Wade has had the good fortune of landing head coaching jobs in three very good situations. In spite of this, Wade's record in the playoffs is 0-4. His record in Dallas in December is 3-6.

I would take him over any coach we have had since he got "fired." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
