According to an ESPN.com report, Wade Phillips will be named Dallas Cowboys head football coach sometime today.
Yes, you read that right. Wade Phillips.
In a league in which young coaches like Sean Payton and Eric Mangini revitalized fledgling programs, Jerry Jones selects Wade Phillips. He of an 0-3 playoff record, and a 45-35 career coaching record for the Bills and Broncos.
Mind you, this comes on the heels of a failed attempt by Dennis Green and Art Shell to rejuvenate their coaching careers with the Arizona Cardinals and Oakland Raiders respectively.
When will these owners learn....retread coaches just don't work. They may win you some games, but they're certainly not "the answer" when it comes to long-standing stability.
Jason Garrett is the coach of this team by '09 at the latest.

If you’re gonna replace a fat guy who lost his touch years ago and can’t win a playoff game, you definitely want to hire another fat guy who never had a touch and can’t win a playoff game.
Wasn't Bill Belichick a retread?
anon. thats everybodys take on it...but at least belichick has a superbowl ring as a coordinator.
Full disclosure: I took a huge leap of faith with that comment hoping that wade phillips doesn't have one as a coordinator. If he does, i'll still say that he sucks.
True,
But Norv Turner has a few I think from his days w/ Dallas. Dallas probably thinks Phillips can get the most out of their 3-4 talent, which there is a lot of.
