Cowboys owner Jerry Jones seems to be intent on giving coach Jason Garrett another contract
Dallas Cowboys Deonte Thompson Jersey , and Jones seems to be doing his best to persuade himself and others that a significant demand would exist for Garrett’s services.Appearing on 105.3 The Fan, Jones claimed that, if Garrett currently were available, he wouldn’t be available for long.“If Jason Garrett had been out on聽the market two聽weeks ago, he would鈥檝e had five聽offers for head coaching,” Jones said. “I know that.”Four years ago, after a loss to the Packers in the divisional round
Womens Deonte Thompson 2019 Jersey , Garrett became a free agent. There was no buzz about anyone else trying to hire him, no effort by anyone to lure him from Dallas. He instead re-signed with Dallas, and if he were a free agent right now that’s presumably what he would do again.Especially since there likely wouldn’t be many/any other offers for his services. Especially since Garrett’s offense is regarded as simplistic and unimaginative. Especially since Garrett’s coaching staff failed to spot and remove a glaring tell from the alignment of the defensive line.None of what Jones said means that he’ll give Garrett another new deal.鈥淚 don鈥檛 have any comments this morning about extensions, because my options are open,” Jones said. “Nobody knows, because I don鈥檛 know this morning, and I鈥檓 the last say.”Jones and Garrett coexist because Jones likes being able to remind everyone that he’s the last say
Cheap Antwaun Woods Youth Jersey , and Garrett is willing to let him. They’ve done so for more than eight years, but it’s fair to ask whether Garrett has taken this team as far as he possibly can, and whether the Cowboys will punch a ticket back to the NFC title game only if someone else is coaching the team. Should we be concerned about the lack of clarity over who will call the offensive plays for the Dallas Cowboys this season, and just how that will be done? It has been an entire week since Scott Linehan became the ex-offensive coordinator for the team. Jon Kitna has been hired with no official title announced. He is expected to become the new quarterbacks coach, while Kellen Moore will move up to be the new OC. Doug Nussmeier is in the mix with an expectation of larger, yet still undisclosed responsibilities. And after some early reports that Jason Garrett would take over play-calling, that seems to no longer be Plan A. But no one has yet handed out a wiring diagram showing how this will all work. There is a sense of disquiet in social media over the uncertainty.Maybe we need to borrow a line from the old Cowboys killer himself
Dallas Cowboys Donovan Wilson Jersey , Aaron Rodgers, and R-E-L-A-X. It is a long time until Dallas plays a game that matters. Despite the assumption that a clearly defined organizational chart is required, teams with this level of change often take a while to figure it out.If you want a historical precedent for not having the play-calling methodology fully delineated at the start of the season by the Cowboys, you have to go all the way back to . . . September 2018.And with this came another unexpected development, as Moore became a go-between for his OC and QB Dak Prescott. In Prescott’s own words:It seemed odd at the time to have a brand-new coach with no previous experience become the middleman in the OC-to-QB communications chain. Now, the expected scenario of Moore being the new OC and likely handling the play calls has not cut out the middleman - it has cut out the guy above and moved the middleman up the food chain.That awkward-seeming arrangement now has had an unintended (perhaps) consequence of getting Moore much more involved in the game plan and play-calling last season. It also may have been a small part of the calculation that Moore is up for the job despite his callowness. It will be interesting to see how Moore winds up handling the play calls as is expected. Will he remain on the sidelines or work from the booth? The addition of Kitna and the presence of Nussmeier makes either option more workable. Since both are quarterbacks, either could be the one upstairs

Or Kitna could be the one face-to-face with Prescott on the sidelines while Moore views the big picture for himself.This may be something the team will experiment with during the first couple of preseason games. And the aforementioned experience Moore gained being in the literal middle of things last year could make things go a bit faster than if he was completely new to the organization. Meanwhile, Garrett’s stance of not talking about all this is not hard to understand. After all, he precipitated quite the furor when he spoke about Linehan’s future right after the Cowboys were bounced from the playoffs. Fans and the media alike want answers, but in this case, the team itself does not seem to have come up with conclusive ones yet. And that is probably no real issue at all. They have months to sort it out, and hopefully get it right. This is, after all
Dallas Cowboys Donovan Wilson Jersey , a new mix of voices. As has been noted before, the OC role may incorporate a much more collaborative nature than existed with Linehan, with more input from both above and below than he allowed. That includes Prescott himself, who has clearly expressed a high comfort level with Moore.This subject will not be closed until we see how things happen in those preseason games, and it may be the season opener before it is truly clear. What really matters is how the offense performs, however the roles and organization chart shake out. We may not like to wait. But we have to.
