I think Garrett will be fired Friday

[CATCH17]

I agree and that is the part that frustrates me the most. We all wanted JG to succeed but once the first 2-3 years happened and Jerry admitted that he was in training, it was an admission that we wasted 2-3 years of prime Romo. Then when he allegedly did hit his stride he got "do-overs" with OC and other issues while we actually collected talent. No excuse for patience the last decade.

I mean.. At one point I seriously think they trusted Romo's football brain more then their own head coach.

 

[Stash]

Sadly I agree with you on this. I think Jerry just wants to give himself ample reason to not resign Garrett. He shouldn't have to worry about such things, but O'well.

We should all take comfort in the fact that it is happening. It's just a matter of time.

I'm still not convinced that Jerry won't use just getting into the playoffs as a reason to give him at least a year or 2 extension

I think Lucy pulled the ball just as you were beginning to kick, and now you have a concussion.

I am. Garrett is a dead man walking.

The ownership has made a lot of positive strides since Parcells came in and gave them a foundation to start from but their downfall has still been Jerry Jones ego and making sure he is comfortable with the head coach.

That's why I have a problem with people talking about "the last 23 years" like they've all been the same. The Parcells years were nothing like the Campo years, and I don't see how anyone could argue that. And we all know the drafting the last five or six years has been far better than those late 90s and early 2000s teams that had so little talent they never had a chance no matter who the coach was.

A matter of party time. That's what it is.

I think the Cowboys, no matter how hard they try to get past it, are at a mental block with regards to Garrett's tenure being over, and are suffering burnout.
I think they will lose again on Thursday night despite being the better team, and that will be the sign to Jerry that this is over and has to end immediately.
Despite other options, look for Kellen Moore to be named interim head coach and then made official after the season ends.
I just don't think the Cowboys can mentally function to play up to potential now that the end is in sight for Garrett.
Just my 2 cents worth.

It all depends on how they lose. A tight game with a lose in the end is almost like a win to Jerry. IF we get blown out with mental mistakes attached, there's no telling.

I hope you're right, but we can all see Jerry doesn't want to do it

Don't see moore as the next coach, but with Jerry you never know

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I'm hoping for a win tomorrow. I'm going to be at the game along with a furcon. I'm at the airport now as I type.

 

[blueblood70]

It could happen. Patience is wearing thin, even with JJ.

even if it did happen no way KM gets the IHC tag..it will be Marinelli or Richard..
it wont happen, makes no sense that will leave 3 games, what will a IHC do that garett cant with 3 to go? garett will simply not be resigned after the final game this year barrign a miracle.. he has no contract after the last game and it helps JJ not feel as bad sayig you are FIRED.. they part ways tell the media its mutual and that is how Jerry will handle it..

 

[mattjames2010]

You don't fire a coach who has put you into a position to win the division. I get we have been helped by the NFC Least, but the simple fact is, we are still at the top.

 

[Praxit]

..I think they win on Thurs. Its just a weird situation seeing a body that has already been cut loose. Just going through the motions, I suppose.

 

[LatinMind]

Jerry made it clear that Garrett won't be fired during the regular season. Either way, I root for the Cowboys to go 10-6, starting tomorrow night. One game at a time. We might as well hope to get on a roll because we have no control over what Jerry does (even when we agree with it).

Jerry said the same thing about Wade Phillips too

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

If the team loses to the Bears in a blowout I see Jason being fired.

I think in a blowout scenario you have no choice. Things would be getting worse but hopefully we can finally win one. If you get beaten down by Mitch T. you should get fired.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Nope, Jerry is not going to fire Clappy while we are still in playoffs.

Thanks to Eagles sucking, the Bears and Rams games don’t really matter. We can lose both but then beat Philly and Skins and we win division.

And if Philly loses a game to anybody else but us, then the Skins game doesn’t matter, just beat Philly and lose other 3 and we still win division at 7-9

That is how much of a dumpster fire the East is but Jerry will be selling “division champions” T-shirts at DC.com!!!!

I'll be so happy tomorrow if we win!!

Regardless what Jerry will do surely we can agree on what he should do?

You are right, Jerry should have fired Garrett by now. Keeping a lame duck coach is not helping anything.
