Yes, this is what happened..Jerruh wanted TO, Parcells had made it clear, he didnt want him here, and that if jerruh brought him that he would have to consider his options..Jerruh did it anyway, and when his contract was up, he left..Jerry ran off another great coach...
i would like to point a few things out..I understand that in a normal organization this kind of crap wouldnt happen, but lets look at the dynamic in Dallas
1. JERRY will not hire a true top eshelon coach, because his ego is too big to let the coach handle player personnel.. Hell half the time the SOB wont let the head coaches hire their own people...
2. If there is any doubt see the boobs they trotted out from Jimmy to Parcells..
3. Knowing the above should tell you that bouncing Carrot top will not get you a better coach, at least not for long or NFL.
4. If Garrett was fired, i bet he would have another job in the nfl as ahead coach immediately...WHY because Garrett has a better WL record than most coaches in the Nfl..The GMs of other teams realize his skill level and experience in the NFL..Dallas Cowboy fans have a tendency to believe other teams fans or The media about his coaching ability..They dont consider the fact that Garret wins despite of Jerry, not usually because of Jerry..
Active number 10 in headcoaches with 50 wins...558 winning percentage in the Nfl..Has one losing season since he has been head coach of the Dallas Cowboys..
I UNDERSTAND we want a SB AND GREATNESS..
5. GARRETT comes from football royalty..His dad was the Nfls scouting guru for many years..The current structure of the combine, college player evaluation for the draft etc are all Garretts dads legacy..GARRET is very good at evaluating talent in the draft...I still believe in the theory that the players play, and the coaches coach..Give a good coach the players, he will win...This has been proven out with Garrets ability to get the most out of his players..Most of them anyway...I Believe if the drafts of the Cowboys followed his and Mcclays suggestions for all picks they would be even more successful... (Jerruhs reaches and risk taking very seldom work out, or work out for long..)
Is Garret in jeopardy this year? Maybe..He is in jeopardy every year...I think Garret gives his coaches too much autonomy..Then again Jerry didnt fire Linehan or Marinelli last year because Jerruh had just extended both in 2016..Linehanin my opinion should have been...
So think hard of your desire to find another coach for the Dallas Cowboys.You might get what you ask for..
