I think that is because they changed up the communication at some point in the season. They sent Wade Wilson upstairs and had Garrett calling in the plays to Romo's helmet.

BTW, two years in a row of career high in sacks for Romo to lowest in his career... Garrett was demoted for a reason...
And my obligatory post for the week:See- was he demoted? or was this a plan from the beginning?
See my last post as a reference.
Real responses by all will be appreciated for the good of the thread...
So what does that say about those proclaiming that Garrett took over play-calling duties from the Giants game on and specifically went to Hoss Jones to meekly ask for permission to run his team his way?
Did that happen?
Did Garrett take over play-calling at all? If he didn't, then he had no reason to go to Jones with his tail between his legs, right?
If he did- why would they keep the guy who was doing such a poor job that Hoss Jones' Walk-Around Trainee couldn't do his Walking Around? He had to call plays instead.
Who is having the disconnect here? I know I obviously am.
I was completely discouraged when I read that Garrett had to ask for permission to call plays from Da Boss.
I'd like to hope that this never happened (the asking for permission thing). Upon reading this- maybe it didn't.
No it's not a none story. the story is king Jerry is going to try the same thing over yet again, and expect a different result. keep buying those tickets cowboys fans, and you will get more of the same.It was clear that Garrett was calling plays in the final month.
This is a non-story.
Btw, the previous years inability to score from our genius coaching staff was the lack of TOs from defense. Now TOs have gone dramatically up, but the same genius coaching staff is saying the defense is at fault.
Got to love the scape hosting for constant 8-8 seasons. Against Detroit, it was the d's fault, yet Sean Lee gifted them a TD and they had 3 more chances outside that. The Dallas offense didn't turn the ball over once. But everybody remembers the last drive and blames it on the defense. Detroit d was playing horrible at the time.
Against the Skins, one TD was gifted to the offense by special teams and the Commanders went ahead in the 4th. If not some miraculous 4th down play by Romo, chalk it up for another loss.
Spin the BS stats all you want, but this offense isn't good.

Yeah, he was supposedly relaying the plays to Romo but some including Broaddus think he was calling them all the way, watching the games it sured seemed like he was.
“@AllStar_Zakar: @BryanBroaddus Do you know why Callahan is returning calling plays next year?” I believe HC was calling plays after NO game
Now Corso you know media isn't expected to sight sources are even be accurate so why would board members be expected to have any common sense. You go too far.
