Cowboys Fire Skip Peete

[tupperware]

Do the Cowboys cut some of you guys a check? It's like a poor man's PR department.

Well, it isn't like the running backs have been stellar since Skip has been coaching them. If you throw out 2007 (which was a good year running the ball), we have had MBIII, Felix and now Murray in the lead role and none of them have lit the world on fire over the course of an entire season. Not much that one could say in Skip's defense other than if they were just angry that Jerry will not fire Garrett or himself as GM.

Yep.

They're all uncomfortable now.

Jerry Jones is in his basement thinking, "I have them now !!!"

What a joke.

Who do you work for, the Eagles, Redskins, or Giants?

Absolutely and Garrett said fire him..not me...Jerry.

Bye Bye.

No use trying to talk sense to this crowd, Hos. They ain't having it. They think Gruden or Holmgren is going to come in here and miracle the team into the Super Bowl.

John Garrett is the TEs coach, who also recently got promoted to passing game coordinator.

Judd Garrett is the assistant director or Pro Scouting under Tom Ciskowski.

And then there's Jason.

I've thought the same thing. Skip Peete was well liked in the locker room and by the media apparently. If the players sense some type of nepotism going on in the front office w/ the Garrett and Jones clan, then Jason will lose the locker room quick.

I'm not trying to. Just exposing exactly what they are doing.

There is literally no chance of that.

Pure speculation on my part but maybe the firing had more to do with pass blocking and route running rather than toting the roc.

I'm going to prove to you how I know Jerry doesn't make the final decisions and had nothing to do with the secondary.

You made me do it.
