No. Marvin Lewis has them beat. John Fox made the Super Bowl with multiple teams. Had opportunities based on success. Jeff Fisher also made the Super Bowl but was very much in the same boat Jason Garrett is now. Marvin Lewis is the king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///mcompact Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I've had ^^^^ as my background on my facebook since 2013. The game at home, against GB in 2013 (Rodgers was injured) was the pinnacle of what Jason Garrett is and will forever be. After a comfortable 3-score lead going into the half, over Matt Friggin' Flynn, Garrett (who was calling plays...even though Jones' took those duties away earlier in the season) decides that now's a time to start lobbing the ball in the air instead of sticking with the run that got us that lead. Play safe offense/defense and start chewing up the clock? Nope. We let Matt Flynn look like a pro-bowler. It was even worse than the loss the week earlier (McCown-led Bears trounced our defense). Garrett. A boneheaded, gutless, loser that'll throw anyone under the bus to save his own butt. I don't think sacrificing Linehan will be enough. I think Little baby Stephen Jones is gonna tugg on Daddy's slacks and say "Daddy...he's gots to go". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry is an imperialistic, narcissistic cretin who has NO idea about football, but a lot of ideas about keeping those who massage his ego around. No he is not. He has pulled more power away from Jones than any coach since Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been running his vanilla, predictable offense since 2007. Coach Vance Joseph said it best last year when facing Dallas "They're easy to scout and hard to beat" . Its really sad when Cowboys fans dont even know the offense we run. Maybe attempt to learn about a subject before you write paragraphs of false information.

Like if you had an egotistical owner who keeps a coach around who has achieved nothing and continues to show ineptitude, one might deduce that the coach is a bit of a favorite for the owner? I can't see many other reasons why a Garrett is kept around after proving so little. Give me some examples? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see many other reasons why a Garrett is kept around after proving so little. Give me some examples? Garrett has been in the the running for coach of the year and/or won it 2 out of the last 4 years. He took one of the most poorly constructed teams (from a cap/depth/draft perspective) and turned it around completely. He took a really old/injured team to one of the best records in the NFL... Then gutted it and took the youngest team in the NFL to the best record in the NFL. Under this new regime of Jason, Stephen and Will we have drafted and developed more all pros than any team in the NFL. His downfall will be his reluctance to just straight fire Scott Linehan. But as a HC for the Cowboys, he has done a lot for us. And PS - Jerry hasnt made the day to day decisions for like 5 years. And for the ignorant Cowboys fan, we havent run Garretts offense since 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I don't think Garrett is a bad coach at all. Jerry has made like two smart decisions in the draft in the past 7 years. WR, ILB, IOL and TE are the four least important positions in football outside of special teams (K,P). Since 2010, Jones has drafted NINE of those positions in the first two rounds. That's 9/17 players he's drafted in the first two rounds that are the bottom four positions in terms of importance. The Cowboys really don't have much talent at all. They've got a LOT of talent at IOL, RB and ILB, but that's not going to get you far in this league if those are your strongest positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garretts offense was a timing based, air croyell passing game with a power run game. We now run Scott Linehans west coast offense with a zone run game concept. Our offense literally could not be more opposite than what it was when JG was calling the plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Callahan brought that to Dallas, not Linehan. Linehan's offense in Detroit was as pass-happy as Garrett's (before Bill Callahan showed up in Dallas). Garrett has adopted it into "his" offense.
