I also think if the losing continues and the offensive struggles stay the same the team will tune the head coach out and you have no choice but to fire him
This is a nice theory, but the players on this team are well aware that Garrett is Jerry’s golden boy, and that any of them could/would be jettisoned before JG is ever fired.
If the offense quits on anyone it will be OC/play-caller Linehan. Meanwhile, the defense under Marinelli will never quit because Rod simply won’t let them.
I share your pain, and never wanted Garrett as HC in the first place. However, I also understand and reluctantly accept the special dynamic that exists between Jerry and Jason.
Jerry Jones drew a line in the sand when he hired Garrett as OC and immediately anointed him “head coach in waiting” BEFORE Wade Phillips was signed as HC (the acceptance of Garrett was a condition of Wade getting the job). It was just a matter of time before Garrett became HC, with Jones then alluding to JG being “his” Tom Landry.
Jerry Jones is now 76yo and does NOT want to admit that he made a mistake, that Garrett can’t get it done, and then face the prospect of starting over with a whole new HC & staff.
If Garrett were to go 0-fer the rest of 2018 (3-13), then MAYBE Jerry would pull the plug. But that’s unlikely. Jones will, if necessary, scapegoat Linehan and his staff, but Jason isn’t getting fired this year.
