The Dallas Cowboys have reportedly made a decision on their new offensive coordinator after fans voiced their frustration over Jerry Jones’ controversial head coach hire.
This move comes as the team looks to reshape its coaching staff following a disappointing 2024 season.
Fans React to Jerry Jones’ Head Coach Decision
Jerry Jones’ choice to hire Brian Schottenheimer as the new head coach sparked anger among many Cowboys fans.
His selection left some questioning the direction of the franchise, especially after Schottenheimer’s two seasons as the team’s offensive coordinator.
With the head coach position settled, all eyes are now on the decision for offensive coordinator.
Matt Eberflus to Take the Helm as OC
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that Matt Eberflus, former head coach of the Chicago Bears, is set to take over as the Cowboys’ new offensive coordinator.
This marks Eberflus’ return to the Cowboys, where he previously served in multiple roles, including linebackers coach and passing game coordinator.
Eberflus’ Past with the Cowboys and Colts
Eberflus’ tenure with Dallas spans from 2011 to 2017, where he made a significant impact on the defensive side of the ball.
After leaving the Cowboys, he became the defensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts from 2018 to 2021, earning praise for his defensive strategies.
His time as head coach of the Bears, however, was less successful, with the team struggling under his leadership.
What’s Next for the Cowboys?
With Schottenheimer in charge as head coach, the Cowboys are now focused on building a strong supporting cast.
Fans are hoping that Eberflus can bring stability and success to the offense, as the team looks to recover from a lackluster season.
With the NFC East being as competitive as ever, the pressure is on for Dallas to make the right moves in the offseason.
