Good move for the Cowpukes.

Not a bad hire (other than at 67 he's getting a little long in the tooth) but he replaced an excellent DC

Yeah, that's a good hire.
I guess experienced guys with HC experience will be tempted by a co-ordinator gig at the Cowbooys as, if they make a decent fist of it, when Jerrah finally gets trigger happy and fires McCarthy, they'll be in the frame.

Why would he want to come here? If we have another bad year, Daboll is gone and guess who would be waiting for a phone call from John Mara ?

I think there is some risk here (Think Jason Garrett). Zimmer was last a defensive coordinator in 2013, and last actively coached in the NFL in 2021. Coaching comebacks don't always work out
