Jason Garrett up in the booth?

[Drederick Tatum]

This is a question. I don't really know the answer because I don't know what he is doing or adjusting on the sidelines. From what I see on television (which is not authoritative by any means) it doesn't look like he is very active of energetic with the players. Most of the time it looks like Tony Romo is off sitting by himself, and I never see Garrett addressing the other members of the offense, its usually the position coaches talking with their players.

At least up in the booth Garrett can see the entire field and what's working and what's not. Up in the booth is like watching game film as it happens instead of waiting until after the game to see what the problems were.

I am sure he has his reasons for being on the sidelines instead of up in the booth, but it would be interesting for him to try calling a game from the booth to see if it improves what he is seeing and thus the play calling and exploitation of the defenses.

That's an interesting point. I probably agree with you.

Give him 6 highlighters and a pack of Kools and sent him to the booth.

good idea, but John Garrett is up in the booth calling plays down to his brother jason.

 

[Hoofbite]

How about out on the curb.

Don't they have birds eye view pictures they look at?

Although it's probably better to see it live.

How do you know John Garret is calling plays? If he is that's insane.

 

[Bluestang]

Many have said the same things last yr when this O struggled...I think garretts system just won't work with the personnel we have.

 

[hairic]

I've always preferred coordinators being up in the booth, with their drones working out trends, stats, film, pics, talking down to the field, etc for them. With head coach, and position coaches on the sideline.

But since our DC is the head coach and our OC is the assistant head coach, it won't likely happen.

 

[joseephuss]

I like when the OC and the DC are up in the coaches booth and would not mind at all if Garrett experimented with that.

I do think that the constant improvement in technology that sends the photos of the plays down to the field in an instant provides coordinators on the sidelines with some great information. I just prefer my OC to see the whole field from that birds eye view live rather than just a few snap shots. If Garrett was upstairs he may have been able to tell Tony that the Giants safety was lined up especially deep on that one play while they were still getting lined up. Who knows?

It may not change anything, but it is always something I preferred.

from what i heard he does call some plays or sometimes he tells jason his brother what he is seeing on the field;
remember jason and john garrett are brothers
the other garrett brother is in quality control,

 

[T-RO]

Garrett does huddle up with his players to review photos that they send down to the field.

It cracks me up how when we as fans know almost nothing about what really goes on...we act like we know everything.

Joke Joe :

well i heard he does dakota, he tells his brother jason what he sees on the field

especially concerning the tight ends;
remember john garrett is in charge of the tight ends

i have seen jason garrett, skip peete, ray sherman and hudson houck on the sidelines, so who on offense as a coach leaves to be upstairs sending in plays or what he sees on the offense?

only other offensive coach that im aware of is wade wilson

I'm 100% sure the guy has input. Why is he here if he doesn't? So, ya, I'm sure his bro takes what he says into a lot of consideration, but i'd stop short of saying he calls plays.

Id be thrilled if garrett would abandon the run if we are only up by 3 points. Is he purposely changging the entire strategy quarter to quarter? "Lets fool them since the run is working so well, lets pass for the rest of the game". I dumbfounded by it all. Prossman
