Following the Dallas Cowboys' decision to promote offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to their next head coach on Friday, franchise legend Michael Irvin shared some heated thoughts about owner Jerry Jones overlooking Deion Sanders for the job.

“We lost an opportunity here,” Irvin said. “I was pushing for Deion Sanders to be the next coach. And I still stand ten toes down on that push.” Irvin isn’t happy that the Cowboys will be sitting at home watching a couple of division rivals compete for a spot in the Super Bowl.

"I don't know what will happen with coach Schottenheimer and the Dallas Cowboys, but Jerry Jones is a shrewd, shrewd businessman, and this (Deion Sanders) opportunity, I'm shocked he did not see." - Michael Irvin.
