fascinating. A Texas-sized saga, a tale of two titans: Johnson and Jones. It would be a fitting additiona/final chapter of these two larger than life characters.

FWIW, I spend time on the Dallas Cowboys forum, and there's no buzz on this rumor at all there. Wade isn't particularly popular as the Pokes coach, and Jason Garrett catches a lot of flak. The only coaches that get any love there are Johnson and Landry. Heck, a lot of Cowboys fans still want Landry to come back.

Johnson was a great coach for the Pokes, but I think this season it's about toning down the drama at Valley Ranch.

Johnson coached in the pre-salary cap era. The 90s Cowboys were the last "Super Star" team. Irvin, Aikman and Emmitt are all in the HOF. When you add guys like Charles Haley, the O-line, etc., I don't know that it would be possible to keep that team together with the current salary restraints.

The modern model seems to be the Patriots, who have one sure HOFer in Brady, and a core of good players who understand their roles.
