Stephen Jones says Cowboys being 0-5 without Tony Romo is 'unacceptable'

[windward]

Lol don't care Garrett to an all time great.

Sure wasn't an all time great in 1989.

 

[windward]

Even the second in command is saying it's unacceptable. I'd bet who on he's blaming in private.

Doesn't mean you fire the head coach.

 

[windward]

So you wouldn't have fired Wade Phillips in 2010?

Different situation. The team hasn't quit on Garrett.

He can't fire his dad.

 

[windward]

He can't fire his dad.

Doesn't mean you have to fire anybody on the staff.

 

[windward]

False comparison, I think.


That's pretty disingenuous, in sports and any other pursuit.

The situations aren't the same. But neither is 1997 or 2010.

I know it's been said over the last week on here but I will remind everyone again.

Dave Campo in his 3 seasons of 5-11 NEVER lost 5 in a row. Let that marinate for a while......

And Campo had worse team than JG. Campo's starting QBs were as bad or worse than our backup QBs.

How many years do you give the HC a pass? He's had one good season. One. He's not been void of talent his whole tenure.

Been in playoff contention last four years and this year hasn't been decided yet.

No reason to fire the coach in my view.

Jerry and Stephen loving Garrett

now not so much...... unacceptable!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that statement is maybe a shot across the bow of JG's ship.

well of course not !
If you like finishing 8-8 every year.

Except we haven't finished 8-8 every year.

Wow is that how far we've fallen? Being in playoff contention is considered a success

 

[Zman5]

He did have Aikman his first year. Then he did have Quincy Puff Puff Pass Carter his last two years. Those were some good defensive clubs and were rarely out of it. Parcells took basically the same roster and went 10-6. But you have a point.

Are you implying Campo had a talented team? Go actually look at Campo's roster and compare it to our current roster. Aikman was pretty much done and it was his last year. Campo didn't have any 1st round draft picks his first two year thanks to the Joey Galloway trade.

To think that Campo's teams were anywhere close to our current roster in talent is completely wrong.

That's the problem. Always a bridesmaid.

To some yes. As long as JG is the HC that's enough for them.

So tired of the not quit canard. Taking an extreme example 5 years ago.

Clap clap they didn't quit while gagging on 5 straight games. Whoop de friggin do

Do you follow the NHL at all?

Lovie Smith's Bears never quit on him. The players praised him until the day they finally slammed the door in his face.
