Nothing Earth shattering, more just confirming what I already believed. I was speaking with a former NFL GM today, the guy was NFL executive of the year not all that long ago "in the last 7-8 years. Put together a helluva roster and coaching staff so the guy knows what he's talking about. I told him I believed the Cowboys were loaded this year and well stocked for a deep run that could end in a Super Bowl title. This is what he said...........He said I was absolutely right that the Cowboys are loaded. Said that they had more than enuff talent to get to and win a title THIS YEAR,..........BUT ,...the question with the Cowboys is the same as its been for awhile now. Do they have the coaching?! Basically he said Garrett is a solid coach but has a long track record at always making the critical error somewhere along the way that ends up holding his teams back from winning anything meaningful.

Dont shoot the messenger. Just wanted to pass along what I heard today from someone who knows what they are talking about.

Garrett hasn’t been making those bad decisions for a couple years now. Who’s the GM?

Why would you be shot for stating the obvious? Aside from a mod with a puppet emoji, I don't know a cowboy fan that thinks garret is an elite HC capable of maneuvering a team to a super bowl.

Wouldnt be professional for me to say. NFL GM, Executive of the year. Has been to Superbowl. I dont tell you this to make it a guessing game, more just telling you so you know what he says carries some weight.
Wouldn’t be professional? WTH? Don’t make sense bro.

Anybody with two eyes and an IQ above 70 could have told you this.

Yes...I KNOW THAT. As Ive said....was just nice to hear it from someone who is actually a big hitter in the sport instead of from a bunch of internet schlubs like ourselves.
I am not doubting your source or that you spoke to him. I am saying to anybody who is remotely objective this is water is wet.

Still... good to hear from the opposition.
Kinda mean to poo-poo this as "duh...".
