In defense of a Garrett (who I agree must go because I believe he's lost the team), how much of Jerry in his back pocket all the time has reduced his ability to coach the way he would like? Do you think Sean Payton would have put up with Jerry's constant coaching
By pretty much all modern accounts, Jerry has not really meddled in anything coaching / XOs related in recent times. This is all on Garrett and the fact that he sucks ass in the worst way. I'm not even sure he's mediocre now if its indeed true that players are tuning him out.
Put this in perspective.
Jimmy Johnson in an interview soon after he mended fences with Jerry Jones was quoted as saying something to the affect of (paraphrasing) "while the break up was ugly, and we both played a part in having fault, the truth is with my coaching style at some point its pretty likely that those players woulda started eventually tuning me out and it might have started showing up on the field so it was probably best I left when i did". So if players are about to start tuning out a championship coach, why would they not start tuning out and not responding to a coach that has done absolutely nothing in all his time in Dallas?
