After days of speculation and a general feeling of inevitable dread from the fan base, the Cowboys made it official: Brian Schottenheimer is replacing Mike McCarthy as the head coach. Needless to say this hire is not popular among fans, and there are very few people who feel good about the process that led to this decision, as well as the decision itself.
That said, Schottenheimer is not entirely without his merits. The son of coaching legend Marty Schottenheimer, one of just seven coaches with 200 career wins to his name, Brian Schottenheimer has some positive attributes.
