On one side you have the man that turned it from 3-5 into a playoff team. On the other, you'd have the man that let the team make the same mistake in back to back seasons and climbing out of that hole with this schedule twice? Unlikely.
The tricky part of this is the relationship Garrett has with the family, unlike anything we've seen before. Firing a HC during the season is worst thing a team can do to him. But one that is close to family, can Booger do that?
The answer lies in history. When the team was struggling under Phillips, there were many rumors about visits to Booger's home by key players on the team. I always believed that because that's what an owner close to his players does.
Garrett's strength has been his ability to get his players to go all out but with a lame duck HC and a lost season? Dunno
And with Booger's ego, he might be patting himself on the back more for that Cooper trade than Garrett turning the team and there is no denying that was the catalyst.
I don't believe in lightning striking twice so if the team is 3-5, I don't care what they do with Garrett.
