"If Matt Eberflus is fired, Dallas won't need to search far for a new DC candidate, they might already have the right one coaching the defensive line. Cowboys players respect him, he's coached under some serious defensive minds, and honestly, the idea doesn't feel all that wild. It feels earned. I've been thinking about new defensive coordinators that could elevate the Cowboys defense, and have been looking outside the organization because of how terrible this defense has been this season."
"You can look at the stats and see how he's produced, how his players have played, the guys who have gotten paid, he's just so good at letting guys play their own game and he's good at pushing us and taking us to the next level. He sets a standard that we can't ever bend or waiver against, you're getting a coach who is always going to give your all, he's intense and he loves his players, and his players love him back."
Aaron Whitecotton is a strong internal candidate to become the Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator if Matt Eberflus is replaced. He currently coaches the Cowboys defensive line and would provide continuity rather than introducing a third coordinator and a new scheme in three years. Players publicly praise his teaching, communication, intensity, and player development. Solomon Thomas credits Whitecotton with producing results, allowing players to play their game, and setting uncompromising standards. Whitecotton's experience under notable defensive minds and his reputation as a grinder and teacher support his readiness for the DC role.
