Garrett slams stadium?

[BrAinPaiNt]

are you joking....you are mocking a Win in the NFL where every game is close.......you know Garrett got to choose sides in the second half....he chose the Sun...what a moron

I am mocking the sun being the difference between a win and a loss and the number of people who are harping on it.

 

[Dodger12]

The sun has been there a billion years and the rookie HC knew so much and prepared so much about it that the Giants won by One point.

Stop...read that again...his great advantage got him one point and the win.

Somehow I don't think the sun really played much into who won or lost the game. I think it is just another lame talking point that was brought up during the game and now everyone and their granny is running with it.

I think you're missing what he's saying. They called plays to avoid the sun and had a plan of what to do in that situation. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, we had a couple of key drops attributed directly to the sun, one which was on our final drive if I remember corretly. This is only an issue because we made it one.

Well it happened and caused like 5 incomplete passes....Dez and Witten didn't even see the ball a couple times

I don't care how much the Announcers or media harps on it. If they have not figured out how to play in some sunlight over the number of years the NFL has been in business....chances are they are not going to figure it out.

It is a way over hyped storyline that every seems to have picked on and it is silly IMO.

game of inches for a reason.

"You find out life's this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it."

Yep...and we have just as easily been the victors during that game but we were not.

All of this doom and gloom and sunshine causing a monumental reasons of why the team won or loss could be minimal factors but sometimes the team across the field is just better on any given sunday and when you win by one or lose by one...it tells me it was a closer game than many are willing to say it was and not some beat down to cause so much doom and gloom.

 

[Diehardblues]

Everything you just said has nothing to do with actually being a good football coach. He is likeable and he kisses Jerry's butt.

And its pretty sad you think he is the best that we can hope for. Which also has nothing to do with the fact that he is a terrible football coach.

I understand but thats the reality of the situation with Jerry.

Garrett obviously isn't the best coach we would want . But who would we want that would come here or Jerry would allow to have more control?

 

[jimmy40]

Can you imagine what a great home field advantage we would have if we set the field on fire during games?

there's been fire for 5 billion years and they'll be fire for 5 billion more years, makes no difference.

 

[endersdragon]

Against an opposing head coach who was in charge for his first NFL game and one who had never ever been a head coach on any level, any where.

With his experience, Garrett should have tap danced around McAdoo. Instead he looked just like he does in most games without Romo to bail him out, just outclassed and outsmarted.

Two normally sure-handed receivers make catches for TDs the Cowboys crush the Giants. How is that on Garrett (though I am sure it is)?

that's a fair point in an isolated situation.

JG cowboys have a history of loosing these close games. its a repeated pattern. he is mediocre for a reason right?

And therein lies the point. A rookie HC had a contingency plan to give his visiting team even the slightest edge/advantage in a league of parity where games are often decided by a FG. The other HC, who was at home, talks about the sun being around a billion years.

If it was just this isolated incident, you don't listen to the chatter and move on. For me and those like me, it's just another example of Garrett bringing no coaching advantage on gameday.

Well that is if you and others truly believe that it made a difference for that coach.

I personally do not.

That is the difference here.

It doesn't matter what you believe......the truth is that the sun hurt our team's chances of winning and we chose to ignore it but JG jumps all over a WR trying to make a miracle happen because 'they practice it" yet refuses to prepare for the big detail of using Home Field advantage

It may or may not have made a difference. I don't know but both coaches brought it up or discussed the issue. One guy prepared for it and one guy just accepted that the sun exists.

I have no proof that the sun prevent us from winning that game.
If Williams caught the ball and got out of bounds we might have won the game on a FG.
If we would have gotten One TD during the times we settled for FGs...we might have one the game.
If we would have stopped the giants from scoring one time...we might have won the game.

So you keep on telling me how the sun cost us the game and I will keep on saying...that is y our opinion.

Who we would want is another matter. Its obvious that doesnt matter at all. Jerry will do as he pleases.

But that doesnt change the fact that Garrett is at the bottom of the barrel as a head coach. And it certainly matters when few posters continue to act like the guy is a good coach.

spangnola is over there talking about how natural issues like this are nothing new. true! however like the situation in greenbay its an advantage for the home team and a disadvantage for the visitor. if you're the home team u make it work for you. why Mickey Spagnola doesn't at least acknowledge this is beyond me. i listened to the entire cowboys break today and they all sound like classic
Sycophants. i was expecting a little constructive rebuttal. guess thats too much to ask from spagnola.

nature is used as an advantage or a disadvantage all the time. we cant control the rain, wind, sun etc. only to an extent. (domes and such) however when its something both teams have got to deal with you best believe it can become a strategic issue.

He is a .500 coach. If not for Romo, he would be a .200 coach
