Did the Cowboys Wait Too Long to Hire a Head Coach?

The quality of available coaching candidates in the NFL is dwindling rapidly and Dan is concerned for any teams who haven’t filled their openings yet and worries about their ability to land a decent coach the longer they wait. And knowing all this, he wonders why Jerry Jones didn’t even bother to interview Ben Johnson.

Dan Patrick: “It feels the longer your team goes before they hire somebody, the worse it’s going to get. Like if you’re a Cowboy fan today and you’re going, ‘Who are we hiring?’ If you’re the Saints, ‘Does anybody want this job?’ The Jags...The Bears got their guy Ben Johnson. The report that the Cowboys didn’t even bring him in to interview him, or at least do a Zoom call with Ben Johnson...If you don’t bring in the number one offensive minded person who was available in the offseason? [Sigh] And you could Zoom call!”
