It is yet again further evidence of the inability of Jerry to manage a roster. He gets too close to players and can't let them go.
You need a hard, cold football guy who is not too attached to the players so he can let them go. Not many coaches have this ability and that's why most with dual responsibility have failed. Here we have an even worse situation as the owner directly makes these moves and he has major problems with separation anxiety from his players. Jerry should worry a lot less about being the players' friends - it doesn't endear any loyalty from them. They all go away to the highest bidder when they are FAs, they all talk smack when they go to another opponent and they belittle you and your precious team.
I had hoped Garrett had talked some sense into him but either he can't or he is too attached to a scrub like McGee too. Either way is just further proof that we need someone in here with authority between the coach and the GM who is willing to make the tough decisions - who to re-sign early, who to extend, who to let test the waters and who to release.
I know Garrett has tried to run practices differently and I believe he will get what he can out of this roster but I also believe that devoid of Romo this is the weakest team in this division by a wide margin. We don't have the talent to play against Philly - they will whip us twice again. We may compete against the Giants because of how bad their secondary appears to be but I fully expect us to get swept again. We stand a chance against Washington but only because they are starting a rookie QB.
