Please no to Jon Gruden. Watching him on NFLN and I've come to the conclusion that college football is his best arena.
I would think if this happened, Jerry would cash in on his relationship with Jeff Fisher and sign him quick.
Personally, out of the big names out there, I would want Gruden. I think this team would respond to him.
A year ago this time I wanted Jim Harbaugh, despite my personal dislike of him. I had no idea he would be this successful this soon.
who would you want as head coach?
I think we are at a major crossroad.
We either A) bring in a big name Coach, new staff, and rid ourselves of underachievers like Spencer, Newman, James, etc.,sending a clear message or we B) stay the course and have a couple of 9-7, 10-6 type seasons, maybe a playoff victory, and watch Romo, Ware, and Witten grow old without ever making a serious championship run.
Where is the crossroad in this?
To fire Garrett or keep him as HC.

Personally I am not buying it at all.
But he just said he was told after the game by his source anything is possible now, Jerry is really upset.
So there you go
I like Garrett as much as anyone, but I've been saying it isnt a foregone conclusion he'd be back next year now.
If Fisher is really the guy Jerry wanted to get all along but couldnt, he can now. And he certainly wouldnt have much complaints from the fan base about the move IMO.
Of course the downside is we dump Garrett after only a yr and a half, he ends up somewhere else in the nos too distant future and then wins big. Cowboys fans would go ape.

why couldnt jerry hire Fisher this year? you think the backlash from the fans prohibited him? I legitimately thought and still think he wanted Garrett to be the guy
Fisher wasnt available at the time. Adams came out and said he was keeping Fisher as HC in Tennessee, and Jones promoted Garrett. Two weeks or so later Adams abrubtly fired Fisher with no wanring or real explanation and many wondered if he did it just to keep Fisher from having a chance to work with the Cowboys. Adams has reportedly always had great disdain for the Cowboys and Jones.
At the time, Galloway said he had sources telling him had Fisher been fired before Jones made his decision, he'd at the least talked to Fisher and would have possibly hired him over Garrett. Have no idea if its true or not.
