DMN Blog: Jerry Jones hasn't changed his mind about Wade Phillips
by Tim MacMahon
Wade Phillips isn't worried about his job security. He doesn't need to be.
Jerry Jones declared this week that Phillips wouldn't be fired no matter what happened today. Jerry stuck to his guns after the Cowboys were completely humiliated by the Eagles with a playoff berth at stake.
"This is obviously very disappointing right now," Jerry said, "but we won't have a head coaching change."
Jerry reiterated that he believe the Cowboys had a core in place -- players and coaches -- to contend for several years. He stressed that continuity would be a key to the Cowboys fulfilling their potential.
"Really, that would be the No. 1 thing that I would be looking at in retaining Wade," said Jerry, who obviously isn't looking at the results of this disastrous season.
