Garrett sandbagged WadeGarrett was one of the reasons why that team was 1-7.

Garrett is beyond awful and his offensive philosophy has held back the team for a decade.
We've never been as good as we can be because of him.
I don't give the Head Coach much credit for Player evaluation. McClay is the man right now. Nobody cares what Garrett thinks.. Just sit in the corner and clap.
They all got to the SB and Garrett has not.Is this the list? I’ll stick with the last ten years just to keep it simple. Belichick is a no brainer. Tomlinson has been solid. Coughlin has those two super bowls and a lot of nothing else. Carroll has been good. Reid if you like a lot of winning without playoff success could be good. I guess I don’t see a lot, if any, coaches that make Garrett look horrible. Add in the recent success guys and you have 7-8 coaches who were arguably better than Garrett and one who clearly was.
Yeah I should’ve made the title “Many were wrong about Garrett”. Feel free to change it.I’ll just take this opportunity to remind you all that not everybody was wrong about Garrett. And to say that I do love reading the complex chains of rationalization about how this team somehow got to be good DESPITE its head coach and chief architect being, to paraphrase, terrible somehow.

Either include all HCs since Garrett became one or don't discount guys like Coughlin and Carroll.
Not that many coaches get 8 years without getting to a championship game. There might be a lot more coaches that would have had success if given those amount of time. Guys like Josh McDaniel might have been good if given enough years to make mistakes and learn from them.
There’s really no need to target a segment of the fans here simply because they can’t appreciate or see the contributions Garrett has made this era to Cowboys Football.Yeah I should’ve made the title “Many were wrong about Garrett”. Feel free to change it.
imagine working for JJ - 1 losing season in 9 is rather impressive - assuming anyone could do better is kinda ignorant of reality
So make them feel like the won a participation trophy?There’s really no need to target a segment of the fans here simply because they can’t appreciate or see the contributions Garrett has made this era to Cowboys Football.
It can be presented in a more professional manner.

Garrett didn't get the chance to draft Tebow. Garrett does not make personnel decisions. If he did he would have outbid ESPN for Witten last year.I don’t discount Carroll; Coughlin a little because other than two 9-7 Super Bowl runs he didn’t have consistency. However, it is hard to argue against winning two Super Bowls, especially with Eli Manning at QB.
Maybe guys like McDaniel could have been good if given more rope but Garret didn’t exactly do anything stunningly bad like draft Tebow in the first round to get himself fired.
I guess my point is there have been far more stunning failures at HC during Garrett’s time than stunning successes that make Garrett look horrible.
Apparently, he was asked by Jerry to take on both OC and HC duties and didn’t fight to keep the OC part.Garrett didn't get the chance to draft Tebow. Garrett does not make personnel decisions. If he did he would have outbid ESPN for Witten last year.
Garrett was an OC turned HC that was forced to vacate the OC duties.
I’m not really interested in getting personal with detractors of Garrett.So make them feel like the won a participation trophy?
I just said they were wrong. I don’t get where you’re coming from or what your point is. I didn’t get personal with anyone in my OP.I’m not really interested in getting personal with detractors of Garrett.
