Actually he was 4-4 The eagles game that year would have been a loss, but they did not play their starters, if they had , they would have beat dallasHe needs to coach like he did when he was the interim coach back in 2010 that got him 5 wins playing with 2 backup QBs. The Cowboys had nothing to lose when Garrett took over at mid season in 2010 so he threw caution to the wind. He had his team play loose and take some chances and it turned out to be the best football the Cowboys played under him until last season. The Cowboys went from 1-7 with some of those games under Romo to 5-3 with a couple of backup QBs. Garrett had the team play aggressive especially on defense which started forcing some turnovers. We forced 4 turnovers against a Peyton Manning led Colts team leading to an OT win. We all wondered where had this been all season? Garrett's first full season as the HC in 2011 he immediately started playing not to lose and it helped cost the Cowboys a couple of games they had won vs NE and AZ.
.
bad.
McGee played qb that game and barely won 14-13
So JG was actually .500 that year too.
But I agree he did call a different game, but also jerry had just threatened all the players, that if they didnt pick it up they might not be here the next
year.
