Cowboys Fire Head Coach Wade Phillips

In the wake of an embarrassing 45-7 loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Dallas Cowboys have fired head coach Wade Phillips, NFL Network's Michael Lombardi reports.This is the first time the Cowboys have fired a head coach in the middle of the season, something owner Jerry Jones was hesitant to do despite the team's early struggles. Since his hiring in 2007, Phillips led the Cowboys to a 34-22 regular season record, including a 13-3 record in his first season. Despite earning the league's best winning percentage that year, the Cowboys followed with a first-round exit in the playoffs at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks. Last season, Phillips led the Cowboys to their first playoff win since 1996 with a 34-14 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

...let's hear it one last time for the Wadester. :icon_salut:

 

Edit - Weeeeeee

I don't see Garrett changing much around there.

 

Player cuts will happen over the next few days

 

A sad day for all non-Cowboysfans.... :icon_cheesygrin:


It was obvious, that his days at Dallas are numbered

 

That is an awesome gif. Sodev!

It was only a matter of time. I've heard Phillips was visibly upset about getting canned. Now the Cowboys have another problem child in interim coach Jason Garrett.

 

Garrett time?

 

Yes, sir.

 

Garrett? lol! He's as much of a bum as Phillips (har har).

 

Thats gr8 lol on the flight home he said 2 a reporter that he felt his job was safe lmao

 

So awesome. Ineprwdude.

 

i always thought that Wade wasnt the right guy 4 Dallas in 2007. Great defensive mind...not a champion type of HC.

 

What happened to all the support he was receiving? lol...

 

This.

I hated this turd, and it was fitting he was coach of the Cowboys.

 

ointlaugh: Oh my god thats so great. RIIC a thousand times over.

 

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to SoDev again.

 

This whole saga of will they won't they fire Wade just served to make Jones look even more like a tool

 

i would like o see bill cower or john gruden either would be great replacement
