The Packers game was the the last straw. I knew it was coming after that article on ESPN about Jerry Jones saying "people will suffer".

I bet Jones cleans house, and lets the new coach create pick the entire staff... Obviously one of the biggest names available will get the job: Fox, Gruden, Cower, etc.

Peace out Wade.

At this point beating the Cowboys isn't even anything to get excited about... these have been some pretty boring games. Now atleast the games have some sort of intrigue to them coming in.

As fun as it is to stomp on the Cowboys graves, I don't think anyone, friend or foe would want to see a team this below playing level.

I know this. I said it jokingly. I knew every time he kept saying Wade was safe for this season that he was BSing, assuming things kept going the way they were.

As a Redskins fan, I wouldn't mind. For once I would like for them to blow a team out. Other than against Oakland last season, Redskins have beaten teams by a large margin about 4 times since 2005, including 35-7 win against Bill Parcells Cowboys.

Yup.

I enjoyed last year's 17-7 win over Dallas more than I did this one and where I live at(probably the highest Cowboy Fan population outside of Texas)I would've loved nothing more than to embarrass them like that just to shut every Cowboy Fan the **** up here.

Exactly.

I hated the Packers going down to open hole roof staduim all the time in the 90's and flat out losing. Payback has been nice lately with the Cowboys visiting Lambeau more often.

If I were a Cowboys fan, I'd be all for Wade's firing. Now maybe Jerry Jones will see what a horrible OC Jason Garrett is now that he's running the entire show and get rid of him at the end of the year.

If Wade was kept all year, I wouldn't have been surprised if Jerry promoted Jason Garrett heading into the 2011 season.

Given the uncertainty around the collective bargaining situation, I'm not sure if I would be surprised if Garrett was retained into the 2011 season.
