Y'all are acting like a bunch of drama starved teenage girls.

He wants a clarification of a reversed penalty that changed a 1st and 5 into a 4th and 10 and gets crucified. He gives a positive front at a PC and gets beat up.

I swear he could save 20 children from a burning building and some fool would get on here and ***** because he did not put out the fire too.

lol, no he tried to call a timeout without letting the maximum amount of time off the clock and got crucified. There is no way to deny that. He is completely fake at a press conference and he's been lauded for it in the past. It's fair he is called out on it as well by those who don't appreciate poor BS artists.

What if Garrett coaches the Cowboys to victory without Romo? Should he still be fired?

I'd like to see a game plan that outcoaches the opposing coach but it hasn't happened all year. You just can't wipe away his stupidity this season, not to mention over the past 3 years. If we beat the Eagles and can win a playoff game, I can't argue with bringing Garrett back for another year. As it stands now, even if we lose, Garrett's coming back, IMHO.

I don't know if I'm Nit-Picking here because I can't stand Garrett, but this really irritated me.
When the press conference was starting, they asked him, "How are you doing Jason?" He litterally answerd "Fantastic" with a smile. I mean he had just received the worst possible news and instead of just telling the truth he comes out and says this, the season is probably over if Romo doesn't play, to me he came out as a fake. I just don't see a Jimmy, parcells, Belichik, Coughlin, Tomlin, Macarthy, Fox, Harbaugh, you name it acting like this. SMH. It will obviously have no impact on the game but I just didn't like it.
Or maybe just maybe he is fantastic because that injury probably saved his job.

Edit title: it should say doing instead of ding :)

He found out he has another year to learn on the job and Romo saved his rear from any accountability. Yep, kid who burnt down his dad's shed and gets to work on the new one next summer :)

He's putting up a front. I can guarantee he's not doing fantastic; especially with today's news.

Decisions about job status, either positive or negative, cannot be made based on one event, or game. The sum of the whole tenure should be taken into account.

That being said, I don't think he will be fired. Even if Romo didn't get hurt, and the team loses this week, I think he would have come back.

Me, personally? I wouldn't bring him back, even if they make the playoffs. I don't think that he should have ever been hired as head coach, and Jones should be absolutely ashamed of himself for two things associated with it. One, hamstringing and setting up Wade Phillips for failure by selecting his successor before Wade was even hired. Two, holding a complete sham of an interview process after the 2010 season, and gaming it for Garrett to be hired.

That's irritated me for years. He always has at least some kind of smirk going on... He's even had a big grin for coaches after some of our worst losses.

I really think it's because he's extremely conscious of wanting people to like him, and it's as if he was taught at a young age that a big smile makes you look better... Or something. It has to be almost an automatic response for him anymore for it to happen at such inappropriate times. It's like the rookie news anchor who smiles while reading news of the plane crash... You just don't do that.

I mean how about this one after that crushing Cards loss in overtime...

"How you doing, Ken? Great game there, pal, that was fantastic!"

(thinking to himself) "Dude, I can't believe you just froze your own kicker..."

What do you what him to say??? "Romo's done and so are we??"

What kind of a leader would he be than? Geesh, I have soured on Garrett as well, but gimme a break. The guy has to show confidence in Orton and his team, any sign of disappointment or surrender will effect his team.

Not what I meant, read post #22.

If he devises some weird scheme that the Eagles have no idea how to counter or totally out duels Chip in a chess match of play calling.................................and wins the game................sure, he can stay.

However, we all know that aint happenning...............only way in hell we beat Philly without Romo is if we get about 9 turnovers and they basically give it to us..................that probably aint happenning either.
