It's probably safe to assume Jason Garrett will be the next head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.
But if he wants to keep the job for more than the three-year average during Jerry Jones' 21-year reign as owner, Garrett must run the team his way.
He must demand the authority to hire and fire assistant coaches. He must demand the authority to dole out fines and determine playing time.
The players must know Garrett is the man who decides the players' fate – not the owner. It's the only way this marriage will work.
It's the only way it has ever worked with any degree of success under Jerry. Think about it, Jimmy Johnson and Bill Parcells are the coaches who've had the most success under Jerry.
Garrett has done everything you'd want an interim coach to do in the nine weeks that he's been in charge.
The Cowboys have played with passion and enthusiasm under him, compiling a 5-3 record. They've shown a propensity to play through adversity, and they play as hard in the fourth quarter as the first quarter no matter the score.
Garrett is off to a good start, but he must demand certain things from Jerry to ensure his success.
