He's right. Garrett has taken a lot of unfair criticism.

If the Cowboys make the playoffs this season, then the anti-Garrett bunch should realize he ain't going anywhere until after next season at the earliest.

Garrett was awful the first half of the season

Offense scored 13. Garrett is the offensive guru.

Does anyone think that Garrett makes the defense go?

To the extent that Garrett shapes the players we take, he should get some credit. I don't know how much that is the case. Most accounts are that McClay is the main guy there.

The Saints game showed me nothing to think Garrett has overcome his game management woes.

And we ate a couple of timeouts on offense because we couldn't get the snap off on time. Not a well run team.
Is that on Garrett or Linehan?

Offensive coaching is the biggest problem. Garrett was the OC turned HC, and I assume he still has lots of input on design and game plan, if not play calling. Linehan is Garrett's guy. Moore is Linehan's guy.

It all falls on Garrett. I think he'd probably call better plays than Linehan, but if Linehan is calling poor plays, *his boss who picked him for the job* should do something about that.
