News: TLH: Jason Garrett gives Mike McCarthy advice on being Cowboys head coach

[TheMarathonContinues]

As an OC...... we were told here (and by Jerry) that he would be highly sought after as a HC. The guy will never be a HC again, and doesn't deserve to be one.

If I’m not mistaken he got head coaching interviews….but I don’t think we will see him coach again. His new gig is pretty good.

Garrett sucks. No one cares what he has to say.

Two years later and I'm still waiting for this line of teams to form, all fighting over who was going to get to hire him. That's what a few CZ members told us was going to happen...

I don't recall this at all........hell every poster wanted him gone after 2019. I do recall Jerry once saying Jason would have quite a few opportunities if he was fired, maybe that's what you're thinking.

"The main advice I'd like to give MM is to ALWAYS have a scapegoat for coming up short, tell Jerry he's right about everything he says, and speak a lot about processes."

Jerry Jones also said that

Tough group…

Tough times make tough people!

Run as fast as you can. The longer you stay the less chance you have of rebounding somewhere else .

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

I never understood the Garrett hate...sure we wasted years on him but at the end of the day he didn't sign himself.....its like the hatred you guys have is always misplaced. Garrett did nothing wrong in Dallas.....

There's a lot of truth to that. Why hate Dak and Zeke because of Jerry's money?

On the other hand...he's the face of expected results. Head coach. Self-preservation is fine....but he's The One. I don't care about money or general managing. Whoever's on the field is who I expect to perform and succeed. I don;t have any other options...no matter how much other complaining is available.

 

[Diehardblues]

The only HC in Jethro era to immediately rebound another HC position was Jimmy.

It took Gailey about 10 years turning Ga Tech around before he had another short lived stint in Buffalo.

Cowboys under this dysfunctional ownership are like a last stop dead end graveyard for HC’s. No one comes here unless the phone isn’t ringing.

 

[Risen Star]

Garrett should write a book on coaching.

 

[Cowfan75]

I guess being the OC of the Giants wasn't easy, either.

 

[visionary]

i didn’t read what he said but whatever this incompetent, moron suck up said, do the opposite

yeah, I need some fire starters

 

[CouchCoach]

McC should take advice from a guy that's been fired twice as much as he has?

All Garrett had to say was "hey Mike, just do what Booger tells you to do. And whatever you do, don't upstage him".

 

[Doomsday101]

" And it’s so true certainly in a place like Dallas. There’s a lot of, there’s a lot of people who make their living speculating about things. And digging things up. And stirring things up. That’s just the world that we live in.

And so when you’re in those roles you have to just really focus on what you need to do to be your best. And this was a theme that we tried to use with all of our players through the years. Players getting into Twitter wars and all of this kind of stuff. It’s like hey let’s just lock in on what we need to do each day to be our best. And when you’re preaching that message to your team sometimes you’ve got to preach it to yourself."

This I agree with, the spot light on the Cowboys is bright and there is always someone looking to dig stuff up and stir things up, the hard part is players have to remain focused and not get into the outside distraction. Unfortunately for Garrett he was unable to keep his teams focused

 

[G2]

FFS, he didn't take the advice did he?

well his outdated offensive scheme , my guys will outright better than yours , we beat you with straight up execution got old fast , Also he had no D understanding, got stupid DCs and ignored D for so long, not to mention his time out gaffes or lack of time outs …

I dont have anything against him personally but as OC and HC of cowboys he was unfit.

It worked for George Constanza. It landed him a cushy job with the NY Yankees.

 

[TRUTH87]

how we doing guys?

 

[DandyDon52]

• I still don't understand the 10years + of JG.....SO BIZARRE it just confuses me!

 

[cityochamps]

Garrett should write a book on coaching.

How about JG just puts together a short film?
