stop enabling jerry as fans.sportsman;1335371 said:Four years ago the thought was BP was a great hire. That didn't seem to work out. So maybe, since thoughts are that JGarrett isn't the right hire - things will work out. Just maybe.

Watch it work, no more obscure a hire than Sean Payton or Lovie Smith at one time.
Yes Smith was a coordinator but who payed much mind to his St.Louis defenses? Few.
You mean to candidates like Mike Singletary and Norm Chow or Ron Rivera or Wade Phillips or Les Miles?wileedog;1335437 said:Why don't we just raffle off the HC position then?
Whoever we get won't have much less experience than Garrett, and we can make some money towards TO's spring roster bonus while we're at it.

Sounds like a gamble no matter what direction is taken.
Chow and Rivera have never been a headcoach and many doubt Chow's ability to be one, Phillips was HC for Denver, Buffalo and an interim for New Orleans and Atlanta, so what.wileedog;1335464 said:For the record, I would say much the same thing about Singletary, I have the exact same reservations about him being given the HC spot. DC, maybe, not HC.
Chow, Rivera and Phillips have extensive NFL experience and established resumes.
As for Miles, personally I don't want any college coach being handed the HC job either.

Jason is also pragmatic, in 1994 when he started on thanksgiving his wife told him at dinner to just throw it high and deep to Alvin Harper.Clove;1335492 said:You have to be much more than intelligent to be a coach in this league. Can Garrett deal with TO? I don't know. What about when things aren't going well and the vulcheresque media start slamming down on him, will he start to question himself?
I'm just saying that you have to bring more to the table as a coach for an NFL team, because it's not just about play calling.
The fly in your ointment is that Payton was previously asst HC with us, while Lovie was DC with St Louis. Garrett has been coordinator nowhere. I like the guy; bring him in as QB coach or OC this year, but HC? Are you betting against Dallas with the sports book next year? Just curious.Aikbach;1335427 said:Garrett is sharp as a geurker knife, he can do it, quite the dark horse but also capable.
