Buckeyes Buried by Brandon Paul’s 43-point Explosion
January 11, 2012Did the Raiders Make a Tough Decision that Mike Holmgren Couldn’t?
January 11, 2012All preseason, we heard various Cleveland Browns defensive backs heaping praise on their position coach Jerome Henderson. Today, the Dallas Morning News reports that Henderson could be en route to the Dallas Cowboys to join his former boss Rob Ryan, heading up the defensive backfield for Jerry Jones’ coaching staff.
“Right now nothing has transpired between me and the Cowboys,” said Henderson. “We are in discussions but nothing has happened,” Henderson said. “I don’t want to speak out of turn.”
Henderson was one of the five coaches whom Pat Shurmur retained from the Eric Mangini regime and is thought very highly of throughout the league. Since his arrival, the Browns have gone from having the 29th-ranked pass defense in 2009 to ranking second-overall in 2011.
Henderson would replace Dave Campo who was recently told that his contract with the Cowboys would not be renewed.

this would be a big loss, but i understand why he would consider it. if he improves that Dallas secondary, then there’s a good chance he’ll be in line for DC gigs.
Ryan needs all the help he can get in the defensive backfield. How many fourth quarter leads did that unit give up?
Heck, if he does anything with that Dallas secondary he might be up for a GM job. Dallas DB and Safeties are hopeless. Gerald Sensabuagh? Enough said…..
I can’t remember the exact number of double-digit 4th quarter leads given up (maybe 4?), but I do know they were saying it was more than in the entire history of the franchise.
So who’s the Lamonte represented coach who we can expect to fill the void?
I don’t think it’s a big loss now if they’d get rid of that special teams coach that’d be great. I see some assistants are already being scooped up.
