Parker's babysitter has arrived

Parker and Schottenheimer wanted to hire Pettine back in the spring, but he wanted to retire. Schottenheimer said he's had an open offer since to join the staff.

Both of them have worked with Pettine previously (Parker with the Packers, Schottenheimer with the Jets under Rex Ryan)

I doubt it will make any real difference but it almost assuredly can't make anything worse than it already is. At least Pettine has experience and has run defenses (and a team, he was also a HC).

From your Tweet: "One HC who had Pettine on his staff: “They finally hired a real coach. Pettine is legit. Dallas will walk away with that division now.”

What does that say about Parker and Schotty? And what does that say about those 2 if this comes to fruition (which I don't think it will)?

This place is a cluster fuck......

At least Jerry seems more reasonable about this than some others, who got all bent out of shape about it like it was some forbidden thing for someone to speak the truth about Dak and how the Cowboys performed Thursday night.

First change every team makes right before giving up on a DC is change his gameday location.

Will def be interesting to see how this plays out (or if it even helps) but this certainly seems like code for "Parker's days calling plays are numbered"

Not really sure why they brought this guy back, getting more help for this sieve of a defense would have seemed to be smarter. Especially with all the secondary injuries.

This is the poor bastard that had Jonny Football thrust upon him when he was HC in Cleveland. Hasn't he suffered enough already without dragging him into the mess that is the Dallas Cowboys?
