Troy Aikman, the former Dallas Cowboys quarterback, expressed skepticism about the team's coaching position being highly coveted. Despite the Cowboys' high profile, Aikman believes that potential coaches may hesitate due to the lack of autonomy historically experienced in the organization.

He pointed to the need for empowering coaches to succeed, emphasizing that this has been absent since Jimmy Johnson's tenure. Aikman indicated that bringing in a respected coach without granting them authority would lead to continued struggles for the franchise.
