News: BST: Maligned Garrett Entering Crossroads With Cowboys

[Diehardblues]

Whenever your met with obstacles and handicaps like Jerry and Jason present you must look to means to overcome or dress up the gal who doesn’t have the body or looks. Often dressing her in designer tailored clothes, new hair do and a new car can enhance her appearance. Or like you might fix up an older car with new paint job and wheels. Dress the pig up so to speak.

This is the approach I’d take in our dysfunctional situation . It’s why we should have concerns with Dak. Do we really expect an organization that couldn’t win more with Romo to have more success surrounding Dak with more talent ?

I think we need an upper end elite QB to elevate us much like we hit with Elliott. Initially last year I thought we had found it. Now I’m not so sure. We don’t need elite talent at every position but the key positions I think would go along way in overcoming.

Maybe we can build a dominant defense to carry the team but again I think it’s going to need elite talent. The only time Jerry overcame was when he had elite talent. We just can’t afford to miss on any of our early picks or continue to take risk in 2nd rounds. This has slowed the process.

Screw Jerry Jones..

He didn’t even let Wade finish out the season, despite the latter’s request and the first play-off win in like twenty years the previous year.

Jerry’s claims to patience and past experience are nonsense. It only rings true for his adopted son.

Maligned Garrett Entering Crossroads With Cowboys

Jason Garrett remains the Cowboys' coach because Jerry Jones doesn't view him as the primary culprit for the debacle that was the 2015 season or the frustrating 2017 campaign.

Maligned? Metastasized Garrett is just getting started!!!

 

[GORICO]

Someone needs to truly sober Jerry up.
Maybe the glass cleaning guy needs to be fired so Jerry can see what is really happening.
Rowdy Must Go...all with me now....Rowdy Must Go....
Can Jerry's wife and kids have a..."we need a coach" intervention eye opening meeting....
Rowdy must go
Curtains Jerry, Curtains...do you need a curtains coach?
Hey, Rowdy can operate the Curtains...nah, Rowdy must go

Jazzcat...very difficult to sober Jerry up when he is slurpin' down that smooth "Blue Label"....he is always half drunk anyway...and still makes 4 billion dollars...Jerry dont care...He will just spin any report so he comes out smellin like a rose...I think Blue Label does smell a bit like roses???

 

[GORICO]

We can only hope that he's at a crossroads. Sadly, I am not sure he is because Jerry and Stephen are never short on excuses for Garrett.

That's obvious when Jerry comes out and actually states they need to look at failures like the Atlanta game and why those games happened. If he was truly interested in knowing and understanding what happened in the Atlanta game, he'd likely be talking more about coaching problems because that game was a clear failure by the coaching staff.

But alas, it's just media speak for Jerry. And why this franchise is forever stuck in the mud.

Sydia--- Why would Jerry ever change from mediocrity?....He has earned 4 billion dollars with the same narrative..."This year we will be champions just like yester-year when we won 3 super bowls"...and it is all "Fools Gold"...We are the Fools and Jerry get the Gold

 

[JBond]

If Jerry wants to give Garrett another year? That's his decision. While I don't agree with it, it's not my call to make. I can only hope that the claims of accountability being made in this article are in fact, true. And that if Garrett does fail to produce, that he is shown the door, and Jones won't once again be looking for an out or excuse for his chosen coach.

The NFL is a results-driven league and people need to be held accountable, not coddled and enabled.

Results do not matter in Dallas. Zero accountability. It's not going to suddenly change after 8 years of the red headed genius.

What good is those records, if we are gonna be one and done everytime.

This coaching staff needs to go. The sooner we do that and actually build an elite defense, the sooner we will win in the postseason

I get that you believe that the team and coaching as it is currently constructed would continue the 1 and done. However, my point is that they haven't gone 12-4 for 3 consecutive years (hell, they haven't done it 2 consecutive years) since 1993-1995. So, in order to go 12-4 for 3 consecutive years, the team, including coaches, would have to be on par with the 1993-1995 teams that appeared in 3 straight NFCC, winning 2 and winning 2 SB. So, if the team and coaching can do something that hasn't been done in 22 years, they can and would also not be 1 and done. It's just stands to reason.

I'm not making a case that will happen, nor am I making a case for keeping the coaching staff. I'm simply rebutting the assertion that 4-12 next year is preferable to 12-4 for the next 3 years. It just makes no sense because logic and history says they would not go 1 and done those years and would likely play in a Super Bowl if they went 12-4 for 3 straight years.

 

[G2]

Yes , and why we need as much elite talent as we can muster .

But the bigger point is how many coaches are winning games against more talented teams on a regular basis?The NFL is a talent driven league. If we assemble more talent in key areas we’ll become a better team.

Im not promoting Garrett is a good coach but your saying he is the worst in NFL? IDK..

JG isn't a great coach he's just OK. His record proves that. He's been running the offense and the HC long enough to at the very least go onto the later playoff rounds. He's proven along with the coordinators that they don't have what it takes to get to the next level. Especially situational football. What kind of idiot stops running the ball when it's working. Or the countless times we've passed on 1st and goal inside the 5? This is all easy to point to, unless you ignore how poor this staff really is.
For the better part of a decade us fans deserve a little more than just OK.

I’d agree with much of this. You’re right. You are what your record is and fans deserve more.

I think most fans agree a greater coaching staff is needed . I just don’t believe it’s a realistic solution with Jerry’s intentions and I’m looking for means or solutions within the parameters Jerry will allow.

 

[Nashville_Cowboy]

The clock is ticking on Garrett.....therefore, I'm sure it will be mismanaged.

 

[Miller]

Everyone is forgetting 2018 is the year of the “he’s working with all new asst coaches. Give him a year” excuse.

In all likelihood.

Garrett is Jerry’s love child and Stephen’s half brother. Gotta be.

You would be hard-pressed to find anybody around here in 2010 that didn't want Wade gone, or even hired in the first place. Yes, he won 1 playoff game the year before, which was the first win in 13 years, not 20. But he didn't get past the Divisional round, getting smoked 34-3. He was then 1-7 in 2010 and the team for all intents and purposes quit on him and was completely embarrassed on national TV. The fact that JG went 5-3 with the very same team just shows that the team had quit on him.

When JJ let Wade go. He mentioned it may not be the only one. The players knew there jobs were on the line and got straight so they didn’t lose there cushy jobs on the gravy train with biscuit wheels. Lol

 

[CouchCoach]

My problem with Garrett is a simple one. He hasn't learned. I thought it was odd for a team with the rep of the Cowboys to have an on the job training program for a HC and I assumed he would be taught. I thought 'OK, he can learn from Parcells' but then Parcells brings in Sparano as his run coach. What? Garrett is from teams that were run teams, why do they need to have a coach specifically for the run game?

Then I came to realize what Parcells knew. This ivy league guy once predicted as a future HC by his QB1 and raised in a football family wasn't what people thought he was. He really didn't have it. He could make all of the quotes but does he really know what that means? His players say "we want to win for him". Then, why don't they?

That's one hell of a tough job and once again we're seeing 20-25% turnover as it is every year. I do not like change but this is one guy that deserves it. Garrett knows why he's still there. Just keep making Booger comfy and say all the rights things, only when it is your turn to speak, and job security is assured.

All the more reason firing Wade had to be done. Maybe, just maybe, a case could've been made it would've been better to have let Wade finish the year and the Cowboys go 1-15. Would've been a higher draft choice and possibly motivated JJ to make serious changes including going after a "skins on the wall" coach like he did with Parcells. But he did the later to get a stadium which he already had.

At least he quit icing his own kicker.. I knew it was a joke when JJ wouldn’t even let JG pick his own staff.

I've been hearing this is a big year for Garrett since year 3. Not buying it. He's hear til Jerry is gone. 7 years without back to back good years, and only 2 good years..and he's still here...he's not going anywhere.

 

[Bleu Star]

I try to be anyway.

Don't we all..
