Maybe he is trying to somehow motivate his guys for something. Well he did say this is a revenge game after he thanked Jerry for so many things

Or he’s taking the bite out of a little potential extra motivation for Garrett’s Cowboys.

Man, I hope so.

It sounds like they’re pretty locked in, though. Just listening obliquely to some of the players’ interviews.
They do sound ready. Coach Phillip's needs to do something that will keep our run game in check. I just want to know what. He always comes up with something. If we are able to run that ball well. We have a good chance to win

The whole interview is weird , he says he wants revenge in this game . Revenge ?

He says that Jerry made some kind of favor for him , and that he will never repay him . what ? the heck would he say this things ?

Then he says Garrett is better ? ... Is he bitter and saying to jerry 'so you think he was better, lets see ' ... 'this will be revenge.'

From someone who’s never come out on the right end of an exchange with me, that’s saying, well, nothing.

Maybe find someone whose judgement I respect who agrees with you here and have them get back to me.
Lol, riiiiiiiiight.

The Cowboys hired Jason Garrett in 2007 before they hired Wade Phillips. It was obvious then that Garrett would replace Phillips as the team's head coach at some point. It came during the mid...

If LA Rams are counting on Wade, I like our chances x .4176423 Cause Wade is over rated deer in headlights.

Crazy. This guy wins one playoff game and all of a sudden the criticism is grounded in optics. It’s not.

I expect my Head coach to win playoff games and manage a clock.

Garrett can draft well, though

Between Garrett and Phillips only, Garrett does these things better.

That's exactly why he said it. He's classy, always has been. Does he feel good about what happened to him in Dallas........hell no, but Jerry inserted an overpaid coordinator into his camp and he had nothing to say about it.

Well, I guess people are gonna have to make up some other story line, since this kinda blows the whole "Garrett stabbed Wade in the back" thing out of the water............Oops.

Guess I spoke too soon...and not soon enough.
Yep

How do you stab someone in the back when you’ve already been named “ the future of the Dallas Cowboys”?

Jerry undermined Wade in every way setting him up for failure.

Fun fact:

Wade is only Cowboys HC to have a losing record with Romo starting. 2010: 1-5
