Hello cats and kitties.

So Jason has this year and one more I think, at about $4 mil a year that Jerry has to pay even though he fires him this season or next season, somewhere between $7-8 million he is owed at this moment. .. But Tony has $55 million guaranteed.

$8 million vs. $55 million.

Who is the boss?

That's maybe $5-6 million still owed Jason if we fail around November this season ... vs. $50 +/- that Tony is guaranteed or maybe slightly more given that we're almost a season into his contract given that we've already paid him a few million of that ... (Zombies sorry "The Time of the Season" what a great tune..)

I haven't seen a thread here in the last few weeks about this.

Jerry fired Wade even though he owed him about $2 mil or so for the rest of the 2010 season. Not a big deal for Jerry.

If we start the season ugly, Jason will be fired. If we finish out of the playoffs even at 9-7, Jason will be fired. Jerry will eat Jason's $4 mil contract still left, and promote Callahan. It won't be a big deal for Jerry. He's got the college football championship at Jerryworld in Jan. 2015. He doesn't care too much about money. But Jerry does care about the Cowboys being in the playoffs.

If this happens, who would be OC?

That's all I wanted to say.

In the universe of the future, there will be Miller Lite beer piped into our house like city water. And we all will be happy.

I don't think Garrett gets fired in 2013 unless he does something specifically to cause them to lose games. It is even less likely if Callahan becomes the OC.

Jerry will only blame Garrett is the players quit on him like they did with Wade.

I don't think J.Garrett gets fired unless we have a losing season. But if Garrett does get fired then I don't believe Callahan will be promoted to HC, it will be an outsider.

This is what I think happens, too.

Many QB's make more than the HC, hell many players on a team make more than the HC. Who is the boss? The HC

Garret's contract details ever released?
Don't think we've ever seen anything official on JG's contract. We've seen speculation and general guestimates, but nothing official.

I'm not with those who have much faith in Garrett's contract. I think a slow start will cause a countdown that will get to Jerry. Last season the losing got to him as the fans booed him, etc. He then made the "uncomfortable" comments. So overall I think a bad start dooms Garrett because as much as Jerry likes to do things his way, I think perception gets to him behind closed doors.

My own feeling I think Garrett is going to prove a lot of people wrong. Now in his 3rd season as HC I think he has brought team oriented players and weeded out me guys from this team and I think it will start paying off. If things do not go well and this team misses post season then I think he will be gone but I just think this team and this staff will make big strides this season.

It must be nice to get paid well and not have to perform a whole heck of a lot.
I know right, where can I sign up?

The only way I think Garrett gets fired is if we have a losing season, especially with 3 straight home games to end the season.

I hope he proves a lot of people wrong. I can't take another gut wrenching 8-8 season again or worse. Plus I'm tired of watching him learn on the job.
