I know Cowboys fans who were predicting he would find a way to screw up that playoff game cause they know this. They've went through years of it. A 13-3 season and a chance to play in the SB just a few hours south down in Houston? Leave it to Garrett to blow it.

Their team is stacked this year, but he'll be the reason they don't go far. Then Jerry will give him a contract extension like before. All the Dallas homers will defend Landry in training.

On same token though, seems he does little coaching and has everyone and Jerry in his ear. Didnt they have some kid as O-Coordinator? look like a guy in his 20s, thinking to myself no way Dennis Allen is going to let this kid beat him. But then again, they change staff so much and still everything looks the same.

Only reason I know this is cause I talk football with some old timers from TX who are lifelong Cowboys fans and they have been screaming for Jerry to be removed as owner or at least fire Garrett.

Moore did not call the game against us. Garrett did. Every time there is a big game, Garrett calls the offense to try and look like a genius.

That's partly what lost them that big playoff game in 2016 to Green Bay. All year long, they let Lineham run a scheme based on play action and running the ball. In the playoffs, Garrett ditched that for his Romo offense (not much running, lots of shotgun plays and trips formations). That explains why they went 4 wide on the final drive and sat their 1,000+ yard rusher on the sideline, then played for a field goal. Garrett is the one who told Dak to spike that ball with 2 timeouts left and go for the field goal, rather than punching it down GB's throat and winning the game.

The weird thing is; Jerry and his son have managed to draft pretty well in the past decade. Dallas has nailed most of their defensive picks and they snagged an ex-Seattle coach to put on the defensive coaching staff. Yet they're still led by a moron in Garrett and they have Marinelli as DC who's only accomplishments are the 0-16 Lions and the fluke year the Bears were in the NFCCG.

With the right coaching staff, this year's Dallas team could be very dangerous. But they'll be held back cause of Garrett and that's a great thing.
