Despite the season clearly not going the way the franchise was hoping, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is still giving Jason Garrett a vote of confidence.
For what it is worth, it is Jones' vote here that matters most.
“Just so we’re clear about it: I do understand frustration right after you lose a game that has such meaningfulness as this ball game,” Jerry Jones said after the loss to Seattle. “But I get to look at a lot of different things and have been around a lot of head coaches and coordinators, so I feel good about our head coach.”
That's a good perspective to have (if Jones actually believes that). Simply because a team riddled with injuries failed to live up to expectations in a single season, it doesn't inherently mean the head coach is trash.
“There’s no qualms or no issues, if you’re talking about any place else relative to anything to do with the coaching — within certain boundaries, but specifically at the top,” Jones said. “We’ve just got to get it done better.”
Jason Garrett, who knows if any of what your boss said is hogwash or not, but it appears you are safe.
Well, at least for now. Who knows what awaits you next week?
