Cowher wouldn't coach for Dallas, JJ has his hands in the cookie jar too much for Bills liking. I could see Shanahan, and its insane he is still not a coach.

Jerry likes Wade because he can control him. Parcells was an anomaly only because three straight 5-11 seasons and he needed a force to jumpstart the team.

If the Cowboys finish 9-7+ and win a playoff game, Wade is safe. The problem I'm foreseeing is not necessarily Wade, but Garrett has been one of those up and coming coordinators that will soon get his shot at HC somewhere. If the Cowboys have any measure of post-season success, especially if due to great offensive play, Garrett will be gone or Jerry will be tempted to promote him.

more predictions:
Brady Quinn, Shaun Hill and Jason Campbell all look good this year
Mark Sanchez will not
Schaub throws for nearly 4,000 yards
Steven Jackson is a top 3 fantasy RB this year
Jim Zorn does fine this year, but gets fired anyway.
McNabb cries like a bitch - check

Everyone picking Curry makes me 99% certain he will not win ROTY. To people picking Larry English, is he even going to see significant playing this this year?

AtwaKom: SF won 7 games last year, are you expecting a 13 win season or something?

add in my OPOTY vote: LT

few treats from last years thread

Shanahan is still getting paid. Why would he work?

You missed my best prediction from last year Ham, when I called on the football gods to smite Tom Brady and he got Bernard Pollarded two days later.
