Kavon Frazier says "Kris Richard may have had his hand forced by Garrett"

Doomsday · Apr 7, 2020

Really good interview, enjoyed it quite a bit.

Seems pretty obvious all the JG talk took its toll on the coaches and trickled down to the players.

Chuck 54 · Apr 7, 2020

For a guy that fans have repeatedly said did nothing except clap, Garrett suddenly had his hand in the offense and defense, despite Jerry not allowing him to do anything, including selecting his own coaches.

Time to move on. There was plenty of blame to go around, including Jerry, Marinelli, Richard, and Moore’s playcalling in the red zone.

Warning to all. You're only as good and prepared as the guy at the top :facepalm:

Read on-

Though i wasn't all sure it was Garrett himself that was an issue with regards to Richard, -but i always thought he wasn;t able to operate
like they expected him to as the former engineer for the Legion of Boom, did as far as i'm concerned.
i thought his feud and mutiny with LB coach Ben Bloom that even led to the LB coach being excused (exiled?) away from the team
had to have an effect on the players and likely lead to players freelancing and being confused on what coach to paying attention to.
Whispers were Richard wanted to hire his own LB coach, but was thwarted away either management ( or Garrett?)

-and by the way, ole red head head coach and overseer didn't seem to do a damn thing with stepping and put his foot down on resolving the mutiny and bitter in-battle with the defensive coaches.

- and who knows if he had to be submissive to whatever gap scheme and way of operating the front four of Marinelli.- which know now the
end result of how that ended up for us.

- Marinelli handled the front four while Richard handled the back seven. Marinelli held the title as DC, but the signals and the play of the LBs and secondary was the responsibility of Richard. only he was limited by the opposition of Bloom, and forced to have to deal with whatever marinelli was determined to use and coach
up front.

- While we saw a great improvement from Byron Jones, per Richard immediately switching him from safety to CB, Awuzie never turned the corner, nor Brown,
nor Xavier or Heath. In the end especially when the big losses like buffalo, bears came in, i thought Richard eventually lost the team and didnt respond to him
(after the team seemed to be detoured towards him more than Marinelli, ala sideline meetings and rant)

- just as i thought the same way management mishandled the Matt Eberflus "co-defensive coordinator" pass game coordinator, etc" .. they may have mishandled some of the Kris Richard workings. They wanted Richard commit to some of the things they currently wanted to do here, not committ to him and re-work and change
how they play defense here. If they wanted this defense to be the Legion of Boom, commit to him fully and let him change and re-work the defense from beginning to end. Not just a page on Byron or Xavier, and let the Marinelli and Bloom do what they want.
- Just -in- my- Humble- Opinion. ..

lol.... wonder how many listened to the whole interview. Never once said Garrett interfered.
About Richard, he said Richard philosophy of the Cover 3 was too complicated and had no margin for error. Actually spoke highly of Garrett...lol

KR hasn’t gotten another job correct? Please correct me if I am wrong. 40 years old, Fired by Seattle and they know what they are doing. Brought to Dallas as some sort of savior. 2 seasons and he was totally exposed. Just because you are emotional it doesn’t make you a great coach. Richard just isn’t very good.

good enough to win a Ring.

KR wasn’t the DC.

He relayed plays.

he should have been the DC.

maybe Jason would still be HC.

the irony.

Everyone for the most part like Jason Garrett as a person, he is a great charismatic figure I'll give him that, but you're wrong, Kavon did allude to Garrett
when he said that he Thought that Richard may have had Richard's hand forced on decisions. All you have to do is read between the lines here! The players
knew that Garrett was laying down a heavy hand on his way out in regards to managing the team which interfered with cohesiveness and in the end got him fired.

No he didn't, he never once alluded to it, you came with some Bs you made up. He called him a good coach, what he said was the pressure of being asked about Garrett's Job was pressure on the staff that trickled down from Jones saying it was a Superbowl or bust season. they then said Garrett handled the whole year dealing with the questions like a "G". Did you even listen to the whole thing....lol

This is right form the article! Frazier thought that richard may of had his hand forced in some ways by Garrett. "Although he wasn’t as sure about this, he also thought that Richard may have had his hand forced in some ways by Garrett".... If you don't think Garrett through a monkey wrench into the cohesiveness of what the assistants were trying to do I can't help you..

Read on-

Maybe more "meat on the bone" in free agency because injured players have not been able to get medically cleared. Maybe UDFAs too. Good for us. I think we're better at UDFAs than most team.

But Frazier has been unable to get medically cleared, and everything is in limbo for him. He has to wait for things to loosen up so he can see doctors for a physical, a situation he shares with others around the league.

The lack of Pro Days
While the COVID-19 restrictions impacted him directly, he also discussed the way it will negatively affect prospects this year. In addition to those who had bad Combine performances or, as he did, had to sit out the drills because of injury, it is particularly devastating for players who did not get a Combine invite.

Garrett was forcing his hand in Seattle too? #ChildPlease

I believe it. And I believe Kellen Moore also had his hand forced as well. Its insane......its literally like Garrett sabotaged himself last season.

Hubris is a nasty thing sometimes. It’s the same with jerry. Stepping back could see more success. being the owner who hired the guy who won it all isn’t good enough for Jerry like it is bob kraft.
