It is lame to say a coach felt pressured, he should be the one applying the pressure on his coaches to live up to a standard or else.

It is basically saying, I didn't want to get rid of him but I don't want to take the heat. Either he is producing or he should go.

No issues with Columbo taking over. But the whole, "firing" is more front office scapegoating. That said, Columbo, needs to bring the mentality he had as a player to his coaching. The pancake run blocker. The dude took no prisoners in his approach to the O-line. It will be good to see some fire on their field, with a very underperforming offensive line to this point.
Open lanes for our backs and give Dak a milosecond more to find a receiver and I'm all set with Marc Columbo and a returning Hudson Houk as a consulant.

This move has Stephens stamp all over it. As his influence grows, he takes action when needed. It's about time.

Pressure should have been to dump Linehan. Instead, rectifying other poor choices takes the pressure off, and lets Linehan hamstring the offense for another half season.

He's totally on the money with this. Enough already. Too much time, money and careers wasted with a guy who should never have been a head coach in the first place. He isn't, and never was qualified for the job he was gifted.

I'm glad the media is starting to say things about Garrett. Here at the Zone we've been saying this all along. Not that the media has talked about Garrett we can all see the light and get Garrett canned once and for all.

At least they are trying to make changes for the better.
Trade for Cooper, and is an instant upgrade to the offense.

Fire a coach for what was not working. Promote a coach that has paid his dues as an assistant. As well, bring in a familiar coach that has had success as a consultant / mentor.

so it isn't what many wanted as to changes, or trades. But it at least is something to make improvements if they work. Better than sitting there and do nothing. Especially for a division that we can still win.

I am ready fro next Monday night.

Lol...these things has been said by the media, it's their meal ticket. They've even went as far as getting Nick Saban's opinion a couple years ago, in which he he gave a good review of Garrett, Jerry or Stephen isn't making decisions based on the media....lol

And I'm really good with that. I applaud them for realizing mistakes with the receivers and offensive line and doing something about it with Cooper and now Colombo.

But if they can't "salvage" this thing, Garrett needs to be fired. Hold this guy accountable for once, like they seem to hold everyone else accountable.
We need to hold our OC accountable too. My guess is he will take the next round of blame and JG will continue on here as Jerrah sips/slams some scotch and whiskey.

If he's tries that I'm taking 2019 off, and each year following until Garrett is gone. Enough is enough with this loser. He's wasted enough time, resources and careers in showing he's not head coaching material and that the picture in Jerry Jones' head is never coming true.

I wouldn't waste any more of my time on him and I would think a man of Jerry's age wouldn't any longer either.

I don't think Garrett survives another non-playoff campaign. He truly has no valid excuses for failure anymore.

Since when did the Jones cartel let Garret make football decisions other than game time clock management? Has something changed?

Yeah, but unfortunately he ran out of excuses years ago and he is still here. It is plain sickening.

Garrett should put the spotlight of pressure on himself and then resign for the good of the team. He's too
self-centered to do that though.

Even that aspect of the game has been atrocious this season, and has, so far cost us two winnable games on the schedule.
