Would Garrett get another HC job, like Jerry thinks, if he was released/fired?

Some of you are just silly. Unless there was some kind of scandal that happens, Garrett would have his pick of just about any vacancy in the NFL. He is a good coach. I know that is blasphemy to say on here but it's true. Not a GREAT coach but he is a good coach. Simple question, are the Cowboys in better shape today than we he took over as HC? The answer is yes, without question and it's not even debatable. He has built a team that competes year in and year out and did so while not having any cap space to bring in key pieces. And probably the most attractive thing that would lead teams to hire Garrett, he has won with a veteran QB and more importantly - a rookie QB.

You guys let your emotion control you to much or you just can't be rational regarding the Cowboys.

And who the heck cares if he does go to another team. Let him mess up that franchise. The guy is a mediocre coach. There's a lot of coaches like that around. He's never turning into Vince Lombardi or Tom Landry.

I think as a motivational hc he is a lot better than most give credit for. His teams never give up on him and seem to respect what he says. The only problem is his outdated scheme and if he would be open to handing over all those duties to a good OC.

Yeah based on sticking it to Jerry some owner will flip that coin. Imagine it working out and Garrett takes a team to a superbowl.

Can anyone say adam gase? If Gase can get a job Garrett would certainly be hired.

LOL at the comparisons to Adam Gase. He only got 3 seasons as a HC and went 10-6 in his first. Miami is a mess. I certainly wouldn't put a nine year coach above him. Because Jerry doesn't have a clue that some how gives Garrett more value than a guy who at least has a legitimate coaching resume. Lets see where he is in 9 years.

How is it not debateable? In 3 years before Wade was fired he was 13-3, 9-7 and 11-5. He won a playoff game and was in 2 Divisional Games. In 9 years Garrett has 2 playoff wins. In 2007 we had 11 Pro Bowlers and 5 All Pros. His last full year we had 9 Bro Bowlers and 5 All Pros. He got fired the next year. Would Garrett have the same leash if his team started badly? Basically they are the same team they were then with just as much if not less playoff success. If your stance is we seem more stable because we don't tank...great, go for it. But saying it isn't debatable like he pulled magic coaching dust out of his tail is laughable. He'd get a retread job somewhere like Bengals or Tampa where Ok is fine and they'd enjoy "competing." But I'd also wonder how he'd do without his long Jerry leash.

Yea Wade did good with Parcell players. By the time 2011 rolled around, there was a 31 year old Romo, a 29 year old Witt, 29 year old Ware and a 33 year old Newman. Everyone else on that team was pretty average to below average (T. Smith was a rookie, Lee and Dez were 1 year players). Your starting OL was Free, Holland, Costa, Kosier and Smith (rookie). You had a 30 year old Ratliff at NT, 29 year old Hatcher and 32 year old Coleman. 30 year old Bradie James at LB and the amazing Sensabaugh on the back end... its amazing that team won more than 4 games in all honestly.

Yes, it is not debatable that todays' Cowboys are in much better shape than in 2011 for moving forward.. not to mention the cap is in a MUCH better place than in 2011.

How is your premise on Garrett? The guy wasn't allowed to do a thing his first 4-5..maybe 9 years. Stephen Jones and McClay maybe but not Garrett. As a HC my post stands. He has done thing special or different to differentiate himself from anything we had before and that shows in our success. Our owner...his boss..even said they had to be patient with his training. So let's stop acting like JG turned this ship around.

It wasn't Wade who traded for Roy Williams, drafted Felix Jones, took all special teamers in 2009 and didn't draft Tyron til his starting QB was 32. And the QB had to beg for it. I'll give Stephen credit more than Garrett. Someone in the front office certainly woke up in comparison to the joke management from those years. Wade simply wasn't given the tools to succeed then was scapegoated out of town.

So you are saying the Garrett was drafting players as the OC and poor ole wade had to sit there and take it? I know you guys will give everyone in the World credit before Garrett, doesn't make it accurate or rational, but I do know that the cookie monster is above Garrett with you guys, so it's pointless to discuss it. The Question was Would Garrett get another job in the NFL, the simple answer is YES. The proof is that the Current Cowboys roster is much better than the crap roster he took over in 2011. Wade destroyed the talent on this team (I am sure you blame Jerry and Garrett for this too but Wade was the HC, so it's on him). It's pretty amazing that as soon as Wade was out of the draft room, the drafts seemed to really get much better, but I know in your world, Garrett had nothing to do with that, because that doesn't fit Hate Garrett at all cost agenda.

Not Garrett. The front office was completely moronic and their decisions reflected on the field. Who cares if he got another job or where the team is today? They fall short every year in January and he's the lowest common denominator since jerry and Stephen aren't going anywhere. Garrett isn't very good but you'll see that for yourself next year and the year after that and so on..

So what you're saying is you think Garrett would be a lock for the Pat's HC job if Billy boy retired after this season.

You really think the Patsies would even entertain the thought? Hell has a better chance of freezing over.

The OP was obviously wondering people's thoughts on the subject. If you don't care, just skip the thread.

So he gets hired, then what? lol It's a hypothetical that simply doesn't matter. You talk on how Garrett is making the team better and in nine years the arrow is basically all over the place. Even with the youngest team in football you can see they will be wasted. I'd like to see him go to another team, I'd be all for it.
