justin Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 (edited) This looks to be a deal pretty close to done (not done yet). Garrett spent last night and today in Baltimore and is currently at the Ravens headquarters. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3197523 I don't really know much about him other then he was a backup QB for several years, spent two years as Miami QB coach and one year as DAL OC. Seems young to be a HC. Edited January 15, 2008 by justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Pimp Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 So they went from "offensive guru" Billick to a brand new offensive mind with little coaching experience in Garrett? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziachild007 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I am not doubting Garretts offensive knowledge, but I am not sure he is ready for a head coaching just just yet, especially one like Baltimore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyalboyd Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Interesting hire. Ouch to Cowboy fans though. That means a new OC. I wonder if anyone else will be picked up as a HC from Dallas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darin3 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 As seen with the Parcells debacle, things like this aren't done 'til they're done. Therefore, bad thread title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budlitebrad Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 (edited) Does that mean Ryan will end up in Atlanta? They better get a real good OC. Edited January 15, 2008 by budlitebrad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Oh, and if this does hold true... which it probably will...... then I could see Phillips getting canned and Jerry Jones will start from scratch. Mike Singletary anybody? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Singletary anybody? JJ has made it pretty clear on numerous interviews, including another one this morning on Dallas radio, that Wade isn't going anywhere right now.

Mike Singletary anybody? If so, that would be two seasons in a row where a coach with a 13-3 or better record got fired. The bar just keeps going up and up (except for the Lions).

ROYALWITCHEESE Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Please say it isn't so! Eh. Easy to make a team with a great Oline, TO, Witten, and Barber look good. Let's see what he can do with McGahee, a terrible Oline, no QB, and not much else.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatman Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Interesting that Garrett was supposed to the Dallas HC in waiting and Phillips just keeping it warm for him...guess that plan is out the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_bone65 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Any possiblity that JJ throws more $$$ at him with the understanding he becomes the HC in Dallas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe it's all just a front for Garrett get on the inside and scout out the Ravens, after all, DAL and BAL do play later this year.........

justin Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 The original story as reported by ESPN has been updated to include: According to a Cowboys source, Dallas owner Jerry Jones has communicated to Garrett without knowing exactly what the Ravens' financial offer might be that he would match it if Garrett rejects the Ravens' offer. Jones has said he would compete for Garrett, not only because he has helped transform Tony Romo into one of the league's best young quarterbacks, but because the Cowboys owner views Garrett as potentially being his next head coach. "There's a feeling that if Jason talks to Jerry last, Jerry can convince him to stay,'' the source said. "Jerry can be a very persuasive guy.''
