Jason Garrett on the open market

[Apollo Creed]

Let's say Garrett got served his walking papers Monday morning. After yet another 8-8 season Jerry had enough and decided to move on.

Where would he end up? In what capacity?

No shot he gets another HC gig, right?

 

[jwitten82]

Probably have to go back to being a Qb coach.

 

[SDCowboy]

I can't see him ever being a HC or even OC again. Maybe a QB coach or something.

 

[Direwolf63]

He might be a OC, but that's unlikely IMO. He will probably be a QB coach somewhere.

 

[visionary]

QB coach if he is lucky
no NFL team would touch him as HC or OC
no top college program will touch him as HC

 

[khiladi]

He's like his father. He'll stick around the people that put him in these positions either way and when they come calling again, he'll be right there.

Ever is a long time. If he starts out as a QB coach, he's young enough that he could start moving back up the ladder to being a OC and maybe a HC. It would takes several years though.

 

[The Natural]

He'll definitely be out of work for more than 5 minutes

Anything is possible. I just don't see it.

 

[khiladi]

It's apparent postion coaches are more a result of connections than anything else. His brother ended up WR coach in Tampa Bay. JG will find something. Honestly, he's made his money and can stivk around football in some capacity irrespective of his incompetence. He may be good at some things in certain capacities that he can fill a niche. He's truly lucky though.

 

[pjtoadie]

A QB coach like most posters are saying

 

[DoctorChicken]

QB coach.

 

[Nation]

He will get interviews for Head Coaching jobs, no doubt about it. The perception around real NFL people is not that Garrett has a wealth of talent to work with and a brilliant GM that he has failed. Former coaches in the media continuously point out our lack of depth and that Jerry has not setup a winning environment.

 

[BoysFan4ever]

He's proving game by game that he cannot handle being an NFL HC. So that is out.

OC? I think he's burned those bridges too

The open market will be a slap in his face. Although he's probably smart enough to know that.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

President of the United States.

Per Ozzie Newsome.

 

[tecolote]

He should get a front office job. He would be better there.

 

[Idgit]

He'd end up an OC, or he'd maybe drop down to college. He'd have to put in a few years in that capacity, but he'd be a consideration for interviews for small market openings eventually. He'd interview well and get another shot at some point. Fan opinions in Dallas aside, he's got a really good reputation in the league, and several prominent former and current coaches have alluded to as much.

 

[SDCowboy]

He should get a front office job. He would be better there.

Another realistic option. I could see him as a GM.

 

[BoysFan4ever]

He should get a front office job. He would be better there.

Receptionist?

Meh, who knows? Mike Martz kept getting jobs long after he started getting his QBs murdered.
