So I’m not going to disclose any names. I work at a Mercedes-Benz dealership and we had a client come in here and purchase a vehicle. This particular client happened to be a player who played for McCarthy and Garrett. He said he was shocked McCarthy took the offer from the Cowboys. When I asked him why, he said that when he got to the Cowboys D Law told him “don’t worry about Jason Garrett, he’s Jerry’s puppet. Just go straight to Jerry.”

That obviously comes as no shock, but it was interesting to hear somebody confirm the locker rooms perspective of Jason Garrett. I asked him why he was shocked that McCarthy took the job and he told me that McCarthy is the complete opposite of Garrett. He is not a puppet. I asked him if he felt like Jerry relinquished his role as being the puppet master and he said “absolutely. That’s the feel in the locker room because McCarthy has wiped out everybody and Jerry would’ve never allowed Garrett to do that. “.

Sounds like a lot of players are shocked because the feel is that McCarthy is the man and he’s the guy you go to now instead of Jerry Jones.

He left me with something that was pretty exciting as we were finishing our conversation... “ we going to take it this year”. I kind of nodded my head and said something to along the lines of I hope so and then he said “trust me, with McCarthy you’re going to see a whole different team this year and we’re going to be a hard team to beat. It’s going to look and feel like a whole new Cowboys team with MM and the coaches he brought in “!

Very cool, thanks for sharing. Totally makes sense too.

However, I'm sure it won't be hard to find out who the guy is (based on the characteristics you've shared + the inevitable instagram post about a new car)

I don't think there is any question we upgraded in the coaching area, even if it's just from a culture and tone perspective. This team often lacked accountability and hopefully McCarthy and others bring that back.

It may simply come down to whether or not Jerry gets the hell out of the way and let McCarthy do what he needs to do and let the scouting department and McClay do their thing. I suspect he won't stay out of the latter, but I am hoping for him to hands off on the former.

I hope he's right about Jerry, but even if he is, that can change real fast if Jerry doesn't like the teams direction. He may not be as vocal, but any coach in Dallas is working under Mr. Burns shadow.

Is it just me, or does it anyone else find it weird that DLaw tells a new guy almost word for word the exact thing posters on here have said about Jason Garrett....I mean the exact phrases and everything.

:huh:

And even more confusing...how is that the feel of the locker room, when i mean you know...None of the players have been to the locker room since the season ended?

Just asking for a friend

We aren't even discussing the most important aspect of this entire story

My man Joe Thomas just signed a 1 year deal yesterday and he's already at Benz getting a new car
NFL checks are hefty
