Players respond to Garrett's job status

[LAZARUS_LOGAN]

Stephen wants Gruden. Almost talked Jerry into it last year.

He talked his father into ditching T.O.

 

[UVAwahoos]

Stephen might be an even bigger idiot than Jerry. No calm waters ahead, folks.

 

[peplaw06]

I'm ok with Gruden now. Not cause I think he's a great coach, but because he's at least someone who will get up in these coddled players' asses.

 

[Jon88]

I'd rather have a 10 year old managing the cap. The guys a moron. We're in the worst cap position in the league every single year because of sour faced asshole.

 

[UVAwahoos]

Oh I'm totally fine with Gruden. If he could put up with senile Al Davis and actually have success, then I think he might have a fighting chance in Dallas. I just don't believe Stephen and Jerry are intelligent enough to bring in a decent option. My bet is that they'll hire Norv Turner or just promote Monte if Ginger is actually canned.

 

[Jon88]

They did hire Campo. Anything's possible so brace for the worst .

 

[Cowboysrule122]

Hire Kiffen as HC? Ridiculous. Might as well dig up Tom Landry's corpse and have a statue Head Coach.

 

[Jon88]

Who suggested that shit?

 

[Cowboysrule122]

Who suggested that shit?

Well it was mentioned in post #45

 

[Jon88]

I skimmed over it and missed it.

I think it's a bad idea to promote the defensive coordinator who is mostly responsible for one of the worst defenses in league history - if not the worst.

Just my 2 cents

 

[Jon88]

have a statue Head Coach

We already have that with Garrett.

Monte talk was sarcasm. I definitely think Jerry will kick the tires on Norv though.

I know that but it was mentioned. Jon was just wondering where it came from. If Jerry did that I'm sure someone would hire a bounty killer.

Norv is just not a good head coach.

Well at least Garrett can move, right?

 

[Jon88]

Yeah

 

[ZeroClub]

I agree. Even so, Norv would be an improvement on Garrett.

 

[Cowboysrule122]

Garrett is book smart but is dumb as fuck when it comes to football knowledge.

 

[Omegasupreme]

I agree. Even so, Norv would be an improvement on Garrett.

Not according to Mike McCoy of the Chargers who said that Philip Rivers was not allowed to make any adjustments to plays that wouldn't work and so this year McCoy gave Rivers options and freedom and plays that both pushed the ball but defended the QB. Rivers was getting sacked and intercepted under Norv without hope for change.

Norv's best success as an OC came when his downfield passing patterns shared the stage with a prominent running back who sold jerseys, launched team fame, and could not be ignored.

I can almost guarantee he wont. If he fires Garrett (which he should) its in part because he knows he cant sell the fanbase on Garrett still being here and being excited about it. Nobody is going to be excited about Norv as HC either.

I think it almost has to be a proven big name coach, which means it probably will be somebody like Jon Gruden, maybe Holmgren, Lovie Smith. I guess the one coordinator type guy it might be would be Mike Zimmer because of the ties and the recent switch back to the 4-3, but he wont excite anyone either.
