I thought for sure a firing was in the offing

[GimmeTheBall!]

After an embarrassment like this, I thought heads would roll.
A firing, maybe Linehan or Lal or both.
Something extreme to alarm both players or coaches.
Maybe a demotion in depth.
Something.
Blimney!
But this is the Jerry-Jason love tour where players are safe and loved. And coaches can just shrug.
How disappointing.
No accountability.

After 1 game? Cmon now.

 

[Tabascocat]

Better chance of getting hit with Haleys Comet than a firing after one game

After 1 game? Cmon now.

You mean after 5 years? This idiot should’ve been fired after 3 straight failures at week 17 win or go home games

 

[crashintonickdm]

I’m totally on board with a bad year if it means this loser is gone. Garrett is a loser. A nice man I’m sure. But can’t coach, period. We’re at a disadvantage at the biggest spot on the field. Romo masked it for years. But even he couldn’t help the week 17 games

 

[Cattle_Rancher]

I could see something around the bye but not sooner.

I couldn't believe they kept Linehan after last year. And then making Moore the QB coach was just spitting in our faces.

 

[Carter]

Lmao Garrett has just expressed his outstanding confidence in Linehan in public.

They will be hear for a loooong time.

 

[Pompey-Cowboy]

I think they should fire at least 1 person after EVERY 8 point defeat against good teams. Survival of the fittest man.

 

[Clove]

Why hire Moore as QB coach? Seriously, this punk should start out water boy and work his way up.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

You have to consider the type of game. It was embarrassing.

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

I was kind of thinking/hoping the same thing. To get up Monday morning and Linehan and/or Garrett would have been given the boot. After several months talk of a "new look offense" and more "Dak friendly" I was expecting a bit more.

 

[NorthoftheRedRiver]

This may be another one of those "building" years. About the 20th in a row.

 

[Jipper]

After 1 game? Cmon now.

Yeah...so much over reaction....we could be 3 and 1 pretty reasonably...or 0 and 4....got to wait and see

It’s not going to happen folks.
Garrett and Linehan scapegoated Dez last offseason.
Now their failures will scapegoat Dak.

When they ran Dez out because he had the nerve to question the garbage playcalling it showed all I needed to see. These guys brought in a bunch of loyal sycophants. Look at our draft picks and free agent signings. They all are passive types who will never speak out against these “leaders” frail egos and failed system.

We all questioned why an obvious talent like Rico sat most off the preseason while guys like Jarwin and a Swaim were elevated into roles they lack the talent to play. These guys got their beat writer buddies to plant a seed that Rico can’t block meanwhile we all saw it wasn’t Rico missing blocks.... if not for Jerry taking a stand, Rico would be cut. These guys don’t want independent personalities around them.

Wasn't it 4 or we accidentally made the playoffs one year in between?

 

[Aviano90]

Once Garrett opened the meeting yesterday with “How we doing, guys?” Jerry instantly felt better and all jobs were secure.

We lost week 17 elimination games in 2008, 2011, 2012, and 2013. Garrett was OC for the first one in which the offense blew chunks and was responsible for something like 24 of the Eagles points they scored.
