News: Woodson- Jason Garrett entering "make or break" season

[Techsass]

How low can our expectation be from a HC who's been at the job for 8 seasons? Just making the playoffs to keep his job? So are we the Dallas Bengals now?

How about winning few playoff games?

Made me check them out. 6 Wildcard losses in the last 9 seasons. Seems similar, but we missed a few Wildcards by 1 game.

Every year we hear "if the Cowboys don't" Garrett will be fired, every year Garrett remains. One of these years someone is going to be right!

 

[cowboyblue22]

Thats pretty much where I am at. Right now I see a six win team, maybe if they get Earl Thomas they could win 7 or 8. But to have Garrett slide again, would be tough to take if that plays out.

vegas has the cowboys at just over 7 wins I think they could be 9 and 7 but expect they will be 7 and 9 I just don't have much expectations for this team if the coaching and qb play don't improve its going to be pretty bad

Dak, or Zeke will get hurt, or the "receivers" didn't live up to their expectations, or something else he can cling to as an excuse for not getting canned.

 

[Hardline]

Enter the usual suspects. "JG is safe no matter what", "JG is Jerry's Landry"........sighhhhhh.

What does one of the all time greats know anyway.

Those"usual suspects" are probably right.

Dak can make or break Garrett this year
if Dak connects with this group of wr/te orphans then Garrett will be considered brilliant (by the media, not Dallas fans!)
if Dak chokes?
could get ugly
and the offseason will be a good time to take a sabbatical

I see a 10-6 team which is 8-8 to 12-4.

At this point I don't know what our offense is going to be - other than Zeke. I'll take that 10-6 & pass on the under for now.

I'm an optimist but I think we have the offense to fix last years problems. And the D should be better.

I hope Woody has some inside info and this holds true.

Yes sir. I hope he does too. I think woody is pretty connected though.

According to Woodson, if the cowboys don't make the playoffs, JG is done.

Over cooked

 

[dallasdave]

... for the ninth year. Go Garrett!

The 2nd longest Dallas coach in Cowboy History

That’s crazy that he’s the coach with the second longest tenure in team history.

You fools been saying this for the last 5 years....lol

If Jason Garrett was a turkey he would be the only one to survive Thanksgiving

JJ's gig is not in question - but I question his sanity since the ATL thing.

that said, JG's the best mind in the Boys brain trust and they know it. I'll lay money Garrett lobbied all off season for the influx of O talent and got the nod purely for one simple reason - if the OL can protect Dak ... he works progressions very well. I can see Dak hit 30+ TDs, 10 INTs, and 5/+ TDs rushing and far less hits/sacks.

Last year's issues resulted in 1 really hard fact - Dak's avg sack time was 2.1 seconds, ouch

Williams, Fleming, and Martin are pretty good.
When Dak has time to scan the field he will make plays.
they moved on from aged and slow O players in Morris, Dez, Witten.
Hurns, Gallup, Thompson, Austin, and Rico are new targets with good hands and RAC potential.
*note, Gallup, Thompson, and Austin have blazing play speed
That speed buys Beasley, Rod, Zeke, and mostly Dak room to work.

I just don't see the wheels coming off, 30 attempts for 225/+ per game as very possible, doesn't sound like a lot but in this O it's devastating with the run game producing another 125 regularly. This will probably work.

Until the O gels they finally have Rod'd unit well stocked. LVE is a massive talent upgrade. Adds as much to the D as Zeke did the O. Don't under estimate this D or team

this is a talented young team, Garrett is very well positioned

10-6 would be disappointing. Playoffs or not.

dang I hope the Garrett fan club doesn't read his opinion.. well crap they will come up with something like. "well he has Jerry's ear". "he's the best we can do".. best we can do.. how do we know he's the best we can do.. smh.. best we can do..
