And that won't help either unless we get an OC who is a bright mind, and just as important, is given free reign to bring in his own scheme and run the offense with complete autonomy.if he stays, Linehan goes. If I have to suffer Garrett, I need a new fucking coordinator.
Absolutely.So we're all agreed that we would prefer his firing over a playoff appearance this year?
The only hope in that case would be that the Jones goofs look at what a difference having a new person in charge of the defense has made on that side of the ball and pretty much force a new OC and new system on Garrett.If they win the division, which they should and likely will, I don't know if even Linehan is gone. I just don't see Garrett being comfortable with some innovative young OC running an offense that different from his.
I guess Jerry could command it like he did when he took playcalling from Jason. But even then, Jason won in forcing Callahan out and hiring his own guy.
In Jerry's mind, yes.Has Garrett secured his future with a meager 2 game streak?
And if the answer is yes, what is the answer to hiring an OC? I don't see Linehan surviving, period. Who will work with Garrett? Who has a compatible philosophy?
I was being facetious about it happening.Nope.
If by some miracle we do this, I still want him fired. But we all know there is a better chance of each of us winning the mega millions, so...
I agree with that. I’d want to look elsewhere for OC and QB coach no matter what happens. Need some more ingenuity there if we’re stuck with Dak. Which, if this happens, we are stuck with him.if he stays, Linehan goes. If I have to suffer Garrett, I need a new fucking coordinator.
Without a doubt.So we're all agreed that we would prefer his firing over a playoff appearance this year?
No, I would still want him fired because I would know that we caught lightning in a bottle and somehow lucked into winning in spite of him. That our fleeting success would not be sustainable. Which has already been proven to a lesser extent with our two #1 seeds during his time here. With what we did with them, and how we followed them up.I was being facetious about it happening.
But if that did happen, and you still wanted him fired, you would just be hating.
I mean my preference would be to make the playoffs and still fire Garrett. Just not sure if that's an option in Jerry's mind.So we're all agreed that we would prefer his firing over a playoff appearance this year?
If we get in, a one and done appearance won't cut it. We must at least play in a divisional playoff game, and if its our first game, we must win for Garrett to stay.I mean my preference would be to make the playoffs and still fire Garrett. Just not sure if that's an option in Jerry's mind.
Nope. As much as I would like to see Garrett depart the scene I still want to make the playoffs. Perhaps he will get an offer to go elsewhere if the Cowboys have a complete reversal this season. Then I can possibly have it both ways.So we're all agreed that we would prefer his firing over a playoff appearance this year?

Glad to see you enjoyed the levity. Oh. Maybe you took it serious.
I don't know about that. If we make it in and get embarrassed I wouldn't be surprised if Jerry cut the cord. After this season Jerry is going to either extend Garrett or cut him lose and I can't imagine Jerry is going to want to extend him again if we come off an embarrassing loss in a 9-7 barely make the playoffs kind of season.If we get in the playoffs there is no way Garrett is getting canned. It's better to just accept it now because it will save some grief later.
How long did we hang onto Lynn Scott? Garrett is in the family portrait.
