Outside of Tom Landry, Jimmy Johnson was the Dallas Cowboys’ best head coach, and there’s little question about that. Johnson took over in 1989 when new team owner Jerry Jones fired Landry, an unthinkable move when Landry’s 29-year stretch as the franchise’s only head coach. But Johnson, armed with all the recruiting information he’d gleaned as Miami’s head coach, completely redefined Dallas’ personnel at a point when it required a clean sweep, Johnson won two Super Bowls in just five seasons as the Cowboys’ head coach, and you could say that he won three, because the Cowboys who beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XXX at the end of the 1995 season was Johnson’s team with Barry Switzer as the placeholder.

Well, Johnson’s old team found itself on the wrong end of quite the debacle with a 27-7 deficit in contradiction of the Green Bay Packers at the end of the qualified half in the wild-card round, and Johnson — in his fresh role as a FOX Sports analyst — did his best to radar in his thoughts as to what the fresh Cowboys should do to get back in the game.

Frankly, I’d pay more attention to this than anything fresh Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy had to say at this display. And at this point, Jerry Jones might want to see if he can get Johnson on a set from Los Angeles to Arlington, Texas.
