SI.com's NFL columnist Peter King joined The Herd on ESPN Radio on Wednesday and told Colin Cowherd that there is a noticeable difference in this year's Cowboys training camp.

"Jason Garrett is the star of the Dallas Cowboys camp this year," King said. "He's in charge. He's running the show. And again, I'm not saying he's running the personnel and draft show, but I'm saying he is running the coaching of this team, and there's no ifs ands or buts about it."

King also believes Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones is confident he finally has the right person in charge of his franchise.

"Jerry Jones loves where Jason Garrett has taken this team," King said. "He loves the professionalism. He loves the straight line and 'do not cross this line' attitude that Garrett has had. You're all judged on your performance. I think Jerry Jones looks at Jason Garrett and says, 'We just might have our coach for the next decade. I love this guy.' "

Well that will be awesome if the results are there. Just hope it's not a Cowher situation where we're really good but don't win one for 15 years.

At least that's a step above being really mediocre and haven't won one for 15 years.

It's been so long for this team I've forgotten what it's like to be relevant on the landscape of the NFL year after year.

Yeah, I'll take good for 15 years and no titles over mediocre for 15 years and one playoff win.

 

[NoShame]

Not me.. Its all or nothing.

I want SB titles, otherwise you're the Eagles.

 

[Midswat]

I think Jason is the right guy for the job, and honestly, I'd be shocked if we weren't AT LEAST in the NFC title game within three years.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

AT LEAST. *emphasis in "at"*
