What if Garrett stays and Callahan gets fired

[Doomsay]

If the OC who is running Jason's offense gets fired, why would you retain the creator of that offense in the first place?

 

[CashMan]

Any one of 500 coaches huh?

You still have yet to answer the question.

 

[Clove]

I think the masses are starting to sour on Garrett and when that happens, you're done here. Jerry loved Owens, but once the masses turned on him, that was it.

 

[Common Sense]

Do you? It would technically be a promotion from OC. If the Browns gave their blessing and most teams do in similar situations then he could accept an assistant HC job here.

Nope.

I think, what I thought was happening when TO was let go was, Stephen was taking over, and was football competent. That doesn't seem the case.

Norv isnt going to be taking orders from Opie any time soon.

As to the OP, we all know this is what is going to happen...Callahan will be the sacrificial lamb for a mediocre scheme.

Media is already starting with the, should the play-calling be handed back to Garrett articles... media loves them some Garrett...

 

[khiladi]

What did he do with Rivers, that made you go, WOW?

He was HC... Norv Turner is one of the best OCs in the game, provided he stays within those limits... He's a QBs dream...

 

[khiladi]

You ignored the question, and named his most successful QB he worked with as proof. Any idiot could of called plays for that 90s team, and they still would of won. Aikman was also, pretty accurate.

You must have missed Coslett and Zampese years.. that was the first step in the decline of the Cowboys glory days...

 

[khiladi]

BTW, Callahan sucks.. he just doesn't suck as much as Jason... Jason's stench is all over this organization now, they need to cut ties...

Bruce Coslet was a coach in 2002, Aikman last played in 2000. Ernie Zampese, was a coach from 94-97 won a SB, and I believe they were pretty competitive up until 96ish. When people say the 90s team, it means the 91-96 teams.

 

[dragon_mikal]

Who would be candidates to become O-Coordinator other than having Garrett do it again?

If Jason is retained they would probably fall back onto him.

Considering who is calling the shots this is the most likely scenario. Ugh.

I feel like the masses are pulling the wheels off before the car has even come to a stop here. We still have a lot of football left.

I meant Norv Turner departing as OC that year was the first step in their decline... Of course they were competitive, because they had talent, but their offense from schematic stand-points started suffering. They started suffering serious holes once he left, among them red zone scoring with Ernie Zampese. In the SB against the Steelers, the first 3 possessions insie the red-zone, they were 1-3 in TD scoring and the firs TD, it was on a 3rd and 9 after Aikman got sacked. Then our offense just stalled, if not for the LB TOs. It was also the eight yard out, when one needs 10 yards era as well from what I remember.

Part of it also was Novacek's back injuries.

We all know that Opie doesn't know how to step on the brakes to stop the car. Heck, he does not know how to drive.

Yeah but it's the bye week after a blow out loss. If it was a blow out win we would all be talking Superbowl!

LOL........


Yep.

 

[Frozen700]

I won't be real optimistic if Red returns next year.

Only way I even will be somewhat happy with his return, is if we do a complete 360 starting next game, motioning Dez, finding unique ways to get him the ball, more exotic offensive looks that work, and then Making it to the SB.

All in all the last part is more important, if that does not happen, and Red is still here, I will join the everyday negative crowd. I doubt Jerry keeps him, but you never know.

 

[xwalker]

The problem is that Callahan is calling plays from someone else's offense. If we are stuck with Garrett which makes me nauseous and they bring in another OC, they need to let him run his own offense.

I think it's only Garrett's offense in terms of the wording. The design of the offense appears to be different. They are using different route dombination, etc. under Callahan.

I dont think there is a correlation in the decline of the Cowboys and Norv leaving. I think the implimentation of the salary cap and age was the demise of the them.

Hugh Jackson in CIN comes to mind. I would love to steal Josh McDaniels from NE.
