*** The Fire Garrett/Coaches Thread **merged**

[Aven8]

Fire Gerrett first, and then we'll go from there.

It's a process...

Firing Garrett would be like making the SB at this point IMO.

Coaching staff has become a complete joke, if Jerruh can't see it we are doomed. Honesty even if he can it will be some amalgam of a Jerry Puppet

Honestly, how much worse could it get? We would at least get two new coordinators and schemes out of it. The offense needs retooled completely and the defense needs some better players and a coach.

Exactly.

This would be like a guy who every weekend, goes and buys the most expensive rib eye steak he can find, marinates it and then burns the hell out of on his grill. So what's he do, next weekend? Goes out and buys another expensive rib eye, marinates it and burns the hell out of it again cooking it the exact same way he did last weekend.

At some point, you just have to try something different.

The only thing to possibly look forward to this season.

Everything else is a complete waste of time.

 

[MileyDancer]

I remember even before the draft saying we'd go 8-8 this season because of Garrett.

People here thought I was crazy because we just came off a 13-win season.

I told y'all.

Nothing more than a complete indictment of the value of "Coach of the Year" awards.

 

[Philmonroe]

It was a crap schedule not just because of the standings - we played some bad teams and won more than a few games by luck. We didn't even make the NCF championship game because our defense couldn't remotely slow down Rodgers. That was not a 13-3 team, as evidence by how badly we are getting killed this year just one year removed

Everybody in the same division plays the same schedule outside of two games period. Who the heck said we are consistently a 13-3 team?

 

[Sydla]

I can't tell if this is him defending Garrett or him kind of hinting that coach of the year awards are largely meaningless.

 

[kumizi]

Isn’t it up to the coach to figure out what to do?

He gave them words. Job done.

It sucks we’ve had to do this for 10 years.

I knew 10 years ago he wasn’t a good coach.

I was there as well

I saw your earlier post. Did Jones really say that about the first half and second half and then quickly trying to change the subject after someone asked if it was a coaching issue?

People saying Jerry is a good business man, I don't think he is. He often put "his guys" over the priority of the actual result.

Yes.

Jones: the obvious common thing over the last two weeks is how we’ve played in the first half and how we’ve played in the second half. That’s actually the most current thing on my mind is how they took it to us in the second half.

Reporter: so you’re saying the coach isn’t making the adjustments at halftime.

Jones: I didn’t say that at all. Did I say that?

Reporter: well you said about adjustments at halftime.

Jerry: No I didn’t. It’s just The common thing that comes to my mind is that for whatever reason we’re getting beat pretty good in the second half.

You don't become a millionaire and billionaire by being a bad businessman.

I think it's much simpler than that. I think his successes in business give him the false belief that he can also be just as competent as a NFL GM as he has been in business.

With each business success, he's tricked himself into believing that success and acumen would carry over from Jerry Jones, CEO of the Cowboys who has had wild success to Jerry Jones, GM of the Cowboys, who frankly hasn't had much success at all.

Looks like the KC win was a sham as well in hindsight...with the Gents win today.

 

[DandyDon52]

I wouldn't mind management being cleaned out as well. Tired of Jerry being a distraction to his players.

Well and the other owners keep Jerry out of the league and he has to sell the team we get a new GM a new owner and new coaches that would be great. Look at how Philadelphia has rebuilt in just two years with the real GM but we have Jerry and Steven and these guys have been trying for 20 years and can't get it done and they won't ever.

Uber defensive of his adopted son Garrett. It's so patently obvious. I mean he knows why first halves and second halves have been wildly different. He just can't admit it.

Unfortunately, it's going to take a few more games like this to get Jerry to consider making a change. My gut is his brain is in defense mode right now and he's going to use injuries, etc. to justify Garrett staying. They may offer up a sacrificial lamb like Marinelli but it won't change things long term.
