Payton left the year before Parcells retired. What was Jerry supposed to do, fire a legend like Bill Parcells and name Payton his successor?
And Zimmer leaving was on Parcells. Bill took so long to make his decision that Mike had to get a job somewhere, and he did at Atlanta.
The others, meh.
What Jerry should have done, though, is fired Garrett after 2013 and hired Zimmer when he was available.
+1 Looking back, this was probably the best window for a change.
2014 we made the playoff while had a career year
2015 Romo and Dez miss half to the season
2016 another magical year but this time with Dak
2017 Zeke miss 6 games ( another window for a change)
2018 Made the playoffs but only after a Cooper trade to clean up FO failure to find a replacement for Dez and firing Linehan.
2019 ............. finally
