    Now that the season is over, comes the Monday after the season in which GMs, coaches, coordinators and assistants are typically let go by under performing teams.

    Looks like the first victim may be Steve Spagnuolo (head coach) and Billy Devaney (GM) of the St. Louis Rams are the first victims, according to reports.

    Who are some other candidates?

    Spagnuolo would be a good DC wherever he lands... maybe if Wade gets a HC gig, somebody could convince him to take over our defense.

    Jerry should fire Garrett then fire himself. Only way the Cowboys can get better.

    Won't happen though. Jones is in denial about both of their abilities.

    They get a lot of credit for the success in Indy, but after seeing this season, did they really assemble all that much talent? Or was Peyton Manning just so good that he carried a team of relative mediocrity really far?

    Why don't players get fired? Kareem Jackson is one that comes to mind.

    Irsay is straight up mobster, 0n twitter posting lyrics to his favorite songs after whacking bill and chris. It's like when tommy has bats in his trunk and stops by his mother's to have some steak. Can't imagine Peyton is happy with the firing.

    Long time coming, I hope they keep Lovie personally because I think his team has never "given up" on him, think it's really about getting talent at need positions like an actual #1 WR.

    I think they will keep him.

    Signing those former Cowboys alone should relieve Angelo of his duties. Ha kidding aside...the right move I think.
