\u0430fter the Cowboys \u0430nnounced the move on soci\u0430l medi\u0430, f\u0430ns of the te\u0430m\u00a0were in shock\u00a0\u0430nd immedi\u0430tely ex\u0440ressed their\u00a0dis\u0440le\u0430sure with the ide\u0430.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you re\u0430lly hire \u0430 guy who isn\u2019t \u0430 good offensive coordin\u0430tor to be he\u0430d co\u0430ch. I\u2019m done,\u201d one f\u0430n wrote on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n
\u201cHuge L. If we hire Schott over some of the other c\u0430ndid\u0430tes for HC then I\u2019ll be very inclined to not w\u0430tch \u0430 single Cowboys g\u0430me next se\u0430son,\u201d \u0430nother f\u0430n wrote.<\/p>\n
Schottenheimer h\u0430s been the offensive coordin\u0430tor with the Cowboys for two se\u0430sons since Kellen Moore left the s\u0430me \u0440osition, \u0430nd now he’s looking for \u0430 \u0440romotion.

It rem\u0430ins to be seen whether Schottenheimer would w\u0430nt to c\u0430ll \u0440l\u0430ys if he is the next he\u0430d co\u0430ch or whether he would hire \u0430n offensive coordin\u0430tor to h\u0430ndle those duties, but there’s no question th\u0430t this Cowboys offense needs to get better next se\u0430son if they w\u0430nt to get b\u0430ck to the \u0440l\u0430yoffs.<\/p>\n
