Highly unlikely Garrett demoted himself in my opinion.
Also the fact that Garrett kept interfering with Callahan and wouldn't let him just run the offense the way he wanted (per Jerry), indicates that this is not all Garrett's decision. Would not make sense for Garrett to promote a guy to OC and then keep bothering him.
Most logical explanation is that Jerry wanted a change and Linehan was a compromise.
How is this a demotion? He is the HC. Jimmy stressed that Garrett would be better served to give up the role of play caller and focus on the overall responsibility as HC. As for bothering him? As HC he does and should have the right to change plays or indicate to the OC what he wants to do in any given situations or is it your believe the HC should have no say what so ever? .
