Y'all have problems. As much as I hate Garrett, he's doing a hell of a job this year. Only people blinded by hate would give someone else credit to some of the choices Garrett has made to help us win. I guess it was all Linehan that decided to go for it on 4th a 1, and do a fake punt against the eagles, right
Learned a lot in the years after freezing his own kicker?

Stupid piece of shit is clapping on national TV when Dak loses a fumble, and you're seriously giving him credit for anything?

The fuck wanted to kick a FG on that 4th and 1, it took Dez saying "no coach, let's WIN this one" to get the actual result. The fake punt? ONLY that it was as near of a sure thing as you can have based on their tendencies, would Garrett ever call something like that. Because as he has said many times, he is "risk averse."

But according to you, it's the head coach who wins the games and the players are just sort of there.

YOU are the one who has problems.

And half of this board will be miserable because they'd rather hate Garrett more than win a Lombardi.

I'd only root for failure if it meant Garrett losing his job, but he's obviously coming back next year, so I root the team on, hoping for the best. But Roger is still wrong: this is not a SB quality defense and will ultimately be our undoing.

I dont really mind Rynie saying what he did. If this year was Garrett's first year, and the only thing we had to go on he wouldnt be criticized. But we have a long history and that history doesnt match with what we are seeing this year.

Is it really? After back to back to back 8-8 seasons where each of those years the team should have won the division and then that debacle last year going 4-12 as if the team had no coaching staff?

To you, no. To me, yes.

No biggie, our opinions don't effect shit

Exactly. Nobody was criticizing Garrett after that half-year he took over from Phillips. I was agnostic towards Garrett but even I thought maybe he really had something like his fanboys had claimed.

Unfortunately for Garrett, that next half-decade happened. All those horrible calls and come-from-ahead losses didn't happen because of internet posters.

I mind very much what he originally said, that half the people here would not enjoy the team winning the Super Bowl due to Garrett hate? That's flat out ridiculous. I know of only one such person and I won't mention his name but it starts with 'Midswat.'

I do mind very much, mindless broad-brushing particularly about what a group of people think. He has no way of knowing that at all and is just trolling.

I believe that most all people who post here would love to see us win that 6th Lombardi, legitimate Garrett hate notwithstanding.

I didnt take it as trolling when I first read it. But I dont know him like you guys do. I just took it as him being more willing to overlook Garretts history, and Im not willing to do that yet.

winning a SB didn't make Switzer any less of a boob. the same would apply to Garrett, who, like Barry, is divorced from play-calling.

Yeah, almost completely absent all during last year's 4-12 campaign, then suddenly back during some success - all he does now is make these types of posts. He doesn't add anything useful and typically doesn't stick around to defend his idiot opinion.

Sees 8-1 and automatically thinks Garrett is Landry and how dare anyone criticize him.

Ive never understood the Landry comparison. Garrett isnt half the man Landry was and he isnt even a tenth of the coach he was.

So is Rynie the token Garrett homer here?

It appears most everyone here agrees that jeri is worthless as a GM who does nothing to help the team be successful and apparently this applies to Garrett as well.

If so, then this team has managed to find success in spite of absolutely zero contributions from its GM & Head coach.

Am I understanding correctly & is this the consensus here?

You don't believe in the adage, even a blind squirrel finds a acorn once in awhile? You don't believe in just dumb stumblebum fucking luck?

And newsflash for you - there's been no success here since the 1995 season.

Yes, I do. I even believe in the possibility of two blind squirrels finding a nut, I just think the odds of the latter are incredibly long (even though you'd think more blind squirrels would be advantageous and they probably are in the scenario described, but not when applied to an NFL team)

And newsflash for you - there's been no success here since the 1995 season.

fair enough, I understand where you're going with this comment. I'll revise my statement to be "organizational and team improvement" which I'm sure all will continue to object to, which is absolutely fine

Would love to explore your standards in this area, and can't wait for you to explain away our sheer dumb luck drafting this o-line, and even more dumb blind luck getting Dak who we tried real hard not to, and how he's worked out.

There was no fucking strategic plan to build this line, it's well documented that's just where our picks fell.

I've stated my opinions years ago when Garrett took over, many of my reasons still apply and had nothing to do with the drafting of the O-line.

rather than re-hatch old shit, here's the cliff notes: Me: "blah-blah-blah" Everyone else: "Bullshit, you dumbass!"

You're claiming "orgizational and team improvement," it's your own meter to defend. Show me where any of it isn't just dumb fucking stumblebum luck.

Sorry amigo, I dont care enough to defend my statements and start and endless merry go round on the subject. I stated my reasons for supporting Garrett years ago but I apparently dont know how to bring up those old posts and I'm too lazy to try and rehash everything that will surely fall on deaf ears and/or be completely incorrect.

However, since its your site, I'm sure you can find my old posts about Garrett, quote them back to me and have a field day showing me what a dipshit I am.

Should be fun, I look forward to seeing what you find.
