If your theory is true then Phillips had no business being the HC if he is not willing to overrule his coordinators. Wade was fired from the Cowboys for the same reason he has been fired as HC at other places and that is his team tend to quit on him. I guess Garrett got him fired from other teams as well?
You do remember that Jerry paid Garrett a ton to stay on as OC in 2008 and not go to Baltimore? He paid him 3 million dollars which was a record for an assistant coach in the NFL at that time. Wade had no say in this move. Wade's salary was similar to that of Garrett. No say over who the coordinator was or what he did.
I have always said think about Garrett ending up in Baltimore. No chance they would have won a SB with this clown. Best damn thing ever to have Jerry overspend to keep him in Dallas.
I have always said, Wade is an excellent DC but not a good HC. Being the man in charge did not allow him to excel. Coaches get fired for a lot of reasons. In Buffalo, people largely regret his firing. It is what it is. We do know why Dallas was a unique situation and hopefully you see the same now.
