Right. Yet he almost won coach of the year.
Almost? Enough said. And we can see quite clearly that he owes it all to one Tony Romo. Without Romo, Howdy Doody looks like exactly what he is...........a joke.
Coach of year is about wins and losses. The 3 years prior he was on the hot list as most likely to get fired. Or is this just another thing about football you dont understand?
What I really cannot understand is how Garrett, a person who graduated from an Ivy league university, can be so akward as a thinking coach. He makes the stupidest mistakes in clock management, in allowing silly penalties like not having the right number of players on the field. He never anticipates the corrections that other coaching staffs will make after half time and he never, never adjusts our game plan after half time. Whatever the game plan is, is sacrosanct whether it is working or not.
Garrett just isnt a football guy. He simply doesnt have the instincts of the game to be a good coach. Not with personnel and not with in game management. He has no feel. He is all theory and study. What he has basically done is taken things from all the great minds he has been around and parrots that into his regiment. But again, nothing comes from inside of him. He doesnt do what he would do, he does what he thinks others would do that he has known to be great.
In other words, he is a complete fraud. Troy Aikman said it best that he would be a great President. He is a politician, not a football coach. EVERY interview he has EVER had he nailed. Got everyone so impressed with how smart he is and likeable. Got Jones to buy in and actually give the guy a job. Then hand him the keys despite the countless blunders as an OC.
And with Jerry running the football management side of the franchise, you have two NON football clowns running things. Blatant stupid mistakes that destroy one year after another.
-Dont get a good RB to replace Murray?
-Have Weeden as your ONLY option if Romo were to go down?
-Completely pass over QB's in the draft that are higher then position players because you think short term instead of long term.
All mind blowing gaffs by the brass that have now comeback to destroy what could have been a possible championship season.
