Garrett has made over 20 million dollars so far being Jerry's bitch. Why would he change now?

I don't think he can change. He is either over his head or is comfortable as Jones lap dog but don't look for things to get a lot better if depth has to be called on this season. If so then it's all on Garrett.

As long as it gets Garrett canned. His way is not working, plain and simple..

Last year just reaffirmed to me that he's marginal at best and that he's a fake disciplinarian.

It's laughable that Hardy got away with as much as he did without so much as a fine or reduction in playing time.

Jerry and Garrett have fostered an environment where there's no consequences for misconduct. Unless you're a fringe player who's only hanging on to a roster spot by a thread.....then "tough guy" Garrett has no problem puffing out his chest.

I'm pretty down on the team as well but if the running game is as good as we expect it to be there's a chance they can hide the defense like they did in 2014.

Remember in 2014 the talent on defense was average at best but thanks to the Cowboys dominating TOP they were able to pull off a very good season.

Carter had 5 picks. Durant, McClain-- each had strong contributions. The LB corps is very below average unless Lee is dominating. I'd love for Hitchens to take the next step, but I don't see that happening.

Durant played in about 5 games that year, Carter and McClain were good but inconsistent, especially McClain who hardly played in the playoffs. Our LB corps completely depends on Lee, if he's healthy we'll be fine but that's obviously a huge if.

Wilber played more snaps in 2014 than Durant, that's for certain.

I wasn't saying that to suggest keeping Red Pube, but I don't think there is a coach on the planet that Jones won't run over when he feels like it. Wait until his death is the best shot.

Wasn't saying these guys are major building blocks or anything, but each contributed and played over their heads in 2014.

Who will be those guys in 2016?

Just wait. We get to have Stephen go senile as well.

He's doing training camp in Alabama.

It's not unusual for players to do this sort of thing when they have kids who don't live with them.
 


No team explanation.

Well yeah, I don't think they can really say it's because he is going to be cut just yet. So they don't say anything. It's not that complicated. The Cowboys have moved on in every way except paperwork.

Other Tweets have said that some players are permitted to travel on their own.

If that's the case, it is even worse.

They haven't done dick. They are still in the stage where people are trying to talk Jerry into getting rid of his cracked ass.
 
Good riddance.

I didn't even want him back for the 2015 season, much less this one.

I was worried about his dedication to football even when he was coming off of a good season:

McClain was great to watch at times, but he's simply got too many question marks for my liking. His dedication to the game, his unstable mentality, and the constant injuries are just way too much to invest in for a guy with his history, not to mention that we already have one unreliable player in Sean Lee who plays the same position.
