The Cowboys won in spite of, not because of, Barry Switzer. That team was so loaded it basically performed on its own.

Correct. The Herschel Walker megatrade was entirely Jimmy Johnson's conception and it produced the Team of the 1990s. Switzer's win was like Bob Lemon's win an Yankees manager, with Billy Martin's team.

The Cowboys have some issues with skill and depth at various positions, including coaching staff.

But it’s clear from this thread that the bench is quite deep at the “armchair quarterback” position! :-)

We know what Troy Aikman thought of how things were run when Barry was there...

Good thing for the bleeps.
