And he said that did affect the team at times, though he didn't give specifics.
But he said everyone just had to realize that was the way things were here and play anyway.

And just think, there is now a rumor Jerry had diner with Gruden.  That helps. |

so true, and hopefully this helps him and the team and if it does i will be happy and thrilled for all of us. if it doesnt ill jut quietly let it go and not even say "i was right" because its more about "how does the team do" compared with my petty ego.
even tho i wasnt a fan of JG last season, thats behind us, moves were made and JG retains his title (possibly for the better what do i know) and if it leads to success, I think we will all revel in the success. |

It is about what has been perceived as rammed down his throat by Jerry. Doesnt matter how true it is. Perception is reality. |

Did Garrett need to turnover the play calling duties? I would say yes. Was Garrett going to voluntarily give up his play calling duties? He has stated previously he wouldn't. After a couple of seasons, where Garrett's game managing has come into question, didn't there need to be change? If Garretts not going to make a needed change, who is? Jerry is his boss, and deemed Garrett would be better served having someone else doing the play calling. Callahan, or whoever. Why all the fuss over perception, when in reality, something had to change to improve the overall offense and team play. |

LOL!!!
1. Brandon Magee will beat out Ernie Sims for the backup WILL/MO roster spot.
2. Ron Leary will start at right guard over Bernadeau.
3. Joseph Randle, Terrance Williams and Gavin Escobar will have more combined TD's than DeMarco Murray, Miles Austin and Jason Witten.
4. Bruce Carter makes the Pro Bowl.
5. The starting OL will be Smith-Livings-Frederick-Leary-Free

It kind of makes you wonder why a guy like Marinelli would leave a comfortable situation in DET for a possible one-year shot here iN DAL, doesn't it? It might just be that Garrett's on more solid ground than his detractors want to admit.
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

Ask Jimmy Johnson what he thinks - this is the best move for Jason and the COWBOYS! Jerrah got it right but people read to Yahoo news to believe what they know is true, this is a goos move for Cowboys!

We'll see how it plays out, but losing the playcalling job might enable Garrett to stay here longer. Possibly much longer.
For all his faults, Jerry has always been a glass half full person. I don't think he'd go into a season preparing for failure and an eventual coaching change. I don't like him as a gm, but that's not his style.

Wasn't Marinelli DC in Chicago last year? He was out of a job until Jerry came calling. |

Not true, The new Chicago HC (Trestman) offered the DC job to him. Marinelli turned it down. In part to work with Kiffen again, but mainly because he didn't want to work in Chicago anymore after Lovie Smith got canned. |
