Garrett Watch Thread...

[Cotton]

You have to wonder if Jerry doesn't already have a coach sort of locked up who isn't free yet. Now that would be playoffs, could be a coach with a bowl game left. Who knows, but it seems like maybe there is some reason for the slow movement and lack of care about other teams snagging coaches.

It's an interesting theory, but still doesn't explain not going ahead and letting Garrett walk. Him letting Garrett hit the bricks doesn't change anything with a potential coaching hire.

Because Jerry wants some extra time with his buddy? Or he just wants a coach in place until he is ready to make the move. Not really sure but I agree, I'd just pull the trigger on Garrett and sit silent letting the speculation continue and the buzz build.

And Riley is free, he is done with his season. Don’t understand what the big aha moment is either.
Plus after seeing Riley’s team shit the bed against LSU I’m not sure I want him anyways.

Couldn't see the above tweet, so I don't know if it is related but...
Rivera is off the board

 

[yimyammer]

I seriously don’t know why the media is so interested in what he says

because its like driving by a wreck on the side of the road where people cant help but look

so he makes their job easy since everyone is desperate for clicks

I am a Riley fan but I don’t want him as a coach for the Cowboys yet. He has some unwalked land in his coaching career. He needs more time and exposure to make the transition.

Albert Breer:

What is holding up the Cowboys’ divorce with Jason Garrett?

The longer Jason Garrett remains the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, the longer Jerry Jones has to wait to begin requesting interviews with future candidates. There are three different scenarios that I can imagine at the moment:

• Garrett is legitimately making a push to save his job, and it’s working. A pair of two-hour meetings on Monday and Tuesday did not result in his ouster, while a head coach was hired in Washington and a flurry of interview request permission slips began to blanket every front office in the league. Jones is behind the scenes trying to figure out a way to spin this to an obviously dejected fanbase hoping for a change.

• Jerry Jones knows who he wants to be the Cowboys’ next head coach and is waiting for that person to give him the green light. This would be a more sensible answer if we’d written this a week ago, back when Dan Mullen was still preparing the Florida Gators for the Orange Bowl and Lincoln Riley was still getting the Oklahoma Sooners ready for a beatdown against LSU. Unless scattered reports of Clemson offensive coordinator Tony Elliott making the leap are true, or Jones is making some wild play for the trifecta of Ed Orgeron, Joe Brady and Dave Aranda at LSU (which, honestly, would be an incredible staff; I would hire Aranda to be a head coach in the NFL now), it would be hard to fathom what exactly for what he’s waiting. Bye weeks for top coordinators are coming up (Greg Roman, Don Martindale, Eric Bienemy, Mike McDaniel, etc.), and the window to get in line is closing fast.

• Jones is emotional and knows he’s running out of time but doesn’t care. Maybe he’s worried Garrett would walk right out the door and into a five-year deal with the rival Giants, which is a thought he’s expressed publicly before. Maybe he simply cares for Garrett and can’t bring himself to do it. Maybe there is an element of allowing the dust to settle, believing that good coaches will still be available outside of the frantic window and they’re worth waiting for.

To me the obvious reason is Jones is simply going to let the contract expire and already has a candidate in his hip pocket.

I hadn't seen this. Did anyone else? If this is true, this is really good news.

Awesome. If anyone from a different Cowboys website asks, you’re my cousin. We tight?

I got you.

Im not sure this is even news but apparently Jerry is seriously considering keeping Garret as head coach. Im not an insider but my cousin has direct knowledge of Garretts situation. The truth of the matter is that I could care less about Dallas much anymore because of Jerry.
I rarely ask my cousin about Dallas anymore but I happened to tonight and he told me that Garret thinks he's staying hence no announcement of him not being fired.
Said him, Jerry and Stephen have been in constant communication

Its blow your brain out news for any Cowboys fan so I apologize.

I pray he's wrong and Im wrong

Dude, there is so much gossip and speculating going on...My cousin has some ins on the player exit interviews and, can’t go into detail about it, but it has that tone that it’s gonna be a different 2020, if ya know what I mean.

I am his cousin. I can confirm.

DFDC!

I think that’s the case as well. He moved ahead of Morticiah. (Sp.?)

Hey, @Iamtdg look. Words.

Hey, @Iamtdg look. Words.

He's a two-timing hypocrite. He will now come back and say "he has changed", but when he says shit like that I only think of Jerry saying "I looked in the mirror and we/I will be changing".
