Jason Garrett took Columbo and Dooley with him, which clearly indicates Jerry let him pick his own staff here as well. He also brought Houck and Linehan here, who he worked with in Miami. The RB coach in NY was at Alabama, meaning a Saban hire, which is obviously a Saban-Miami Dolphins connection with Garrett. Also Judge had some roots in Alabama.
This is why it’s much more excited to just get some up and coming HC, who isn’t afraid of going outside the box. I mean even McVay hired Wade Phillips, but had no problems firing him to bring in a new DC.
This is why I was never really excited for MM.
And again, the main issue here is Moore being extended when MM is supposedly the offensive gurus. It’s like he’s just as much a figurehead here as Garrett eventually became, after play-calling was stripped from him.
