IRVING ,Texas - Jason Garrett isn’t naïve to it. While his focus was on beating the Falcons Sunday night, even the Cowboys’ head coach was aware of the rumors that had circulated throughout the day.
With the Cowboys 3-5 and a familiar, and yet successful coach possibly on the market, it’s only natural for there to be intrigue.
Garrett said he was aware of the Payton speculation, but promised it didn’t affect his focus for the game.
"There's a lot of stories that circulate around our game," Garrett said Monday afternoon. "So certainly some people bring those kinds of things to my attention, but again we're focus on what we need to do. We had heck of a challenge (Sunday night) in Atlanta, trying to play an undefeated team so that's where our attention was. Trust me, I'm focused on what we need to do and I'm just focused on coaching this team as best I can and getting our team to play as well as we can play.”
