The best thing Garrett can do for Cowboys is become Zeke's off-season guardianI am starting to think this is what Jerry meant about changing. JG moves from puppet coach to puppet GM.
What if this is all about persuading Red to leave coaching and take 78 year-old Jerry's place in the decision-making hierarchy?
(Pardon the bold, but this once was its own thread before someone figured it belongs here.)
Or, technically, Stephen becomes the final say, but Jason is more or less in Stephen's place as next-to-final-say.
It would be surprising that Jerry would decide to step back from the center of the Cowboys universe, but at 78, maybe he's been having a lot of thoughts that many if not most people getting ready to crest 80 tend to have.
How would you feel about that???
On the one hand, I take it that the loudest and most prolific posters here would be disappointed to see Red ascend to even greater authority... on the other, I tend to think that a whole lotta folks feel it is in the franchise's best interests for Jerry to pass the baton once and for all.
He’s very good at scouting talent. Inspirational speeches. Human Resources. It could actually be a good fit.
He’s a bad coach clearly. This isn’t necessarily a promotion based on good coaching. But a potential better fit for his talents. and a buffer between Jerry.
As long as he’s not calling plays and making game time decisions, I’m ok with it.

As long as they don't let him near the sidelines during games I am cool with that !I am starting to think this is what Jerry meant about changing. JG moves from puppet coach to puppet GM.

100% no. No coach with an ounce of brains would take the job with the previous failed coach who still wants the job sitting directly above them in the owner’s ear every second of every day. No chance whatsoever this would work. You think the team Has dysfunction now, times it by 10 if this were to happen.
Jason's not in a position to demand anything to be honest.Laugh at OP but this is what WE ALL KNOW. It doesn't take 2-3 DAYS to fired someone on an expiring contract, that's a fact. What is there to negotiate when no money/compensation is owed other than the future. My humble guess they're talking extension and they can't agree on years Jason may want 5, they only wanna do three) or power/authority.
I’d be okay with that.I am starting to think this is what Jerry meant about changing. JG moves from puppet coach to puppet GM.
I know someone that does that I can't believe they do it we're together for a while now they live next door to each other f*** that noise the shotgun would be outExactly. It would be no different than marrying a woman whose ex-husband lives in the same house. Dumbest idea ever if JJ is even considering it.
