no, actually Garrett is faithfully following the "process" that has been failing miserably with the cowboys for the last 2 years

firing a young promising head coach is what an idiot gm does, so hang in there. there is still hope.

2 bad examples there......Tom Landy took over an expansion team when they were dealt losing hands, everybody's rejects. And Jimmy blew up the whole thing his first year and by the 3rd year, had a SB powerhouse of a team.

Don't see Garrett's 3rd year being a SB powerhouse team.....hanging around .500 for a couple of years based mainly, according to many here, Romo's "heroics" and hall of fame play.

You are right about the idiot GM....JJ fits that to a tee.

Maybe Garrett should try his hand as HC in the college ranks since the "process" works great there apparently. The NFL, not so much.

I really am not convinced that Garrett can coach. But his methods regarding the big picture and how to approach daily business are outstanding, IMO.

As for Saban in Miami...maybe if they got Drew Brees like he so badly wanted, things would have been very different. They had no QB there. Instead, his teams were basically .500.

I agree that he didn't use the best examples. But the is a very long list of others he could choose from.

Jim Zorn is the most accurate comparison for Jason Garrett.
