I have been saying all along that I think it’s 50/50 that Garrett is retained as HC. The big win tonight bumped the odds slightly higher for Jerry retaining Garrett.
It got the team to .500. The team played another complete game on O and D.
it allows Jerry to convince himself that with a bounce here or there we are 10 and 6 or better which is true.
I don’t know if Jerry will can Garrett or not, but I know he doesn’t want to.
The fans would not, on the whole, be happy with that. But what if:
1. Jerry fired the special teams coach tomorrow
2. Marinelli gets the boot too
3. Jerry makes a run at another legit DC candidate and keeps the better of the DC prospect or Richard.
4. Announces that Jason failed buy he has one year to right the ship.
I think half the mad fans could get on board with that. Maybe even 3/4.
