What Jerry needs to do is look in the mirror and see that the problem on this team is him. Fire himself as GM and focus on the business aspect of the team. Hire a GM who has a clue and maybe then a credible coach ala cowher or gruden would want to coach here. Because if this continues and he fires Garrett our next coach will be sparano!

Jerry Jones : Great Owner, Terrible GM

The Cowboys will never win anything as long as Jerry Jones owns the team. You watch. As soon as they come close to having a championship caliber team, he’ll start meddling, trying to ensure the appearance that he deserves the credit for building the team.

Nah ~ Jason is safe. I’m fairly sure he caught JJ in compromising situations with small farm animals. Else why make Garrett the highest paid assistant coach in the NFL? Why hire him as head coach with no HC experience when better choices were available? Jone has had seven shots at hiring head coaches ~ he bombed on six of them. I think we have found the problem.

Jerry Jones says a lot of things.. People seem to have a short memory.

Lets explore two of his most recent smoke blowing sessions-

He said he wasn’t going to fire Wade Phillips in the middle of the season last year. He did.

Said T.O. was safe, and he was cut.

Every coach deserves three years to make their case – its stupid to hire a new coach annually. Those that think otherwise are thankfully unable to effect a change on a pro football team – unless you are a retard like Pioli.

The problem with the Cowboys is the players feel entitled to victory just for walking out for warm-ups. Dallas is arguably one of the most talented teams many years but they’ve underperformed since Jimmy Johnson left because there was no longer a threat of being cut for falling asleep in a meeting. Unfortunately many of the two year olds in the Dallas locker room require that level of supervision. A little more stress in the Cowboys locker room would serve them well and perhaps reverse their annual December-January swoon.

Lately I’m wondering if Garrett is the right guy to lead the Cowboys. Was happy with what he had to say when he took over the job. But it seems to me that when teams consistently fail to hold on to leads and understand the game is 60 minutes, it falls on the shoulders of the coaching staff. I also do not like coaches that do not show emotion when the teams screws up big time — like losing games they should have won. You may not all agree, but if Bill Parcells was coaching this team, we would have won the last two games. Parcells was a master of working the clock. Garrett appears not to own a watch.

Jerry Jones saying that the coach’s job is safe is like Andy Reid saying that Donovan McNabb/Kevin Kolb (pick either one) is his starting QB, only to change his mind a week later.

Reid and Garrett both fired.

Rebuilding year for the Giants, huh?

Tom Coughlin is in his office right now, doing the pee pee dance, and giving both of them the finger.

The Cowboys major issue is the Owner/GM. He does not want to take responsibility for failure, but loves being “one of the boys” when everything is good.

He is a meddling owner who calls himself a GM when he really is not a true football person. As long as he owns the team there will be problems.

It still surprises me that a guy like Garrett who is a real talent would really want to coach for a guy like Jones.

This is Al Davis v 2. Just like Al, the older Jerry gets, the more control he assumes and the more micro-managed the head coach and all other coaches are. On the other end of that spectrum, as suggested by Trent Dilfer, there may also be a lack of accountability by the players due to the fact that they can always go above the coach to Jerry if they are treated unfairly. This was pervasive in Oakland which explains why the team under performed year in and year out. There needs to be a healthy paranoia of job loss on the minds of the players (Both Landry and Johnson had this instilled in the players), which there seems not to be. Jerry’s overbearing grip on the team and resounding daily commentary on the state off affairs only makes it worse.

Given that the Cowboys’ are stacked with talent and don’t need rebuilding, fans expect nothing less than an instant winning record and playoffs. On the contrary, Jason Garrett needs time to “mold” his players into cohesive offense, defense and special teams units, according to his system. Even Garrett and Romo need to develop cohesiveness with playcalling. Garrett is doing a pretty good job so far, so making a head coaching change should be the last thing on Jerry Jones’ agenda.

Safe huh? Let’s see what happens if the Cowboys have one more last 30 seconds of the game debacle like they did against the Cardinals.
