Ryan could be all Jerry, but I don't think so. I think there are things being leaked out that might have had to do with Jerry and Jason wanting him gone ... and Garrett had more ties to Kiffin than Jones did.
Broaddus said it was an issue between Peete and Garrett so I have little doubt that Garrett had input on it.

I guess you have to take the good (Marinelli) with the bad (Nutt).

I like Marinelli hire, but I thought Rob was robbed.

Yeah Pete asked JG, "do you plan on using my guys in this game, and JG replied, maybe for blocking only today."

This is another great day this off season ontop of Kiffin. All we have done is help Garrett , people are looking at it as if we are trying to hurt him? Insanity.
Yes, even JJ isn't that stupid.

I truly believe the deeper, more experienced , and talented the staff, ala the 90's & 70's teams the better you are. Garrett can't do this all himself, just like Ware and Romo can't.

Great day today folks.

I hope Garrett gets free of playcalling so he can concentrate on the entire war taking place in front of him.

I love the direction this defense is heading, sounds like it will be priority numero uno.

Now, can they start working on the offensive side? The anticipation/waiting is killin me

That's ok fellas - plenty of empty spam cans y'all can crawl back into now.
Wow, first time I ever saw those 9 words put together like that...

Now if we can ever fix the trenches....

Don't believe everything you read.

You need your head examined if you believe Jerry Jones is a smart GM.

We'll settle this with a good dust up.

Oh trust me I know...that was just sarcasm.

I think its safe to say that the last 17 years or so have shown that smart and Jerry dont often go together.

I'd bet he wasn't being sarcastic. It is weird I've never been around people who are so comfortable and accepting of a person who is so clearly under qualified for his job. To the point they praise him it boggles my mind.

Good moves but they will be all for naught if the Red Headed Idiot is still running the offense. When will the real issue with this team (the offensive coordinator / play caller) be addressed?
"Maybe next year!!" We have been saying this phrase WAYYYYY too long!!!!!!!!!!

The real issue is the man in charge of everything from socks to jocks.
