Being from the area you all know more than I. But, I was under the impression much of the problem with Wade was he did not instill/insist upon enough discipline and basically lost the players.
This is my opinion, one I've not heard (outside of once by Deon Sanders before "they" got to him.) And I apologize for my long windedness.
Jason got hired before Wade. Jason was paid as much as Wade. As far as I'm concerned Wade and Jason were for all intents and purposes duel head coaches. With wade carrying the official title. One was an offensive head coach, the other was a defensive head coach. Over the last 4 years, we've watched the offense struggle, debilitating penalties, Star players like Roy Williams failing to integrate into the offense. Once star players like Marion Barber are now on the chopping block. (if he is the "red headed jesus.") this is personnel coaching issues that he should be able to coach away. you know. Parcell's used Marion right. 3rd downs, red zone, and fourth quarter. Using him the whole game changes his game and lowers his effectiveness. But garrett switched him over because he was whining about not starting...
Then you get to this season. Jason Garrett's SCARRRYYYY offense scores one TD in the last few minutes against washington. Wade's defense only allowed 13 points... The next game, they allowed more, but 14 of that was off of turnovers inside the opponents 40... Basically this year, wade's "supposed" missmanaged defense came out ready to play. And the Brilliant Red headed jesus, offense was mired in ineffectiveness... Penalties, games where all they did was throw the ball. I watched games get called like Jason had Romo on some high stakes fantasy team, where yardage was worth everything. Anyway, the brilliantly coached offense, missed a simple blitz pickup and Romo got creamed during that Giants game.
IMO at that point the whole team gave up. And wade never got them back. IMO the whole ball of wax can be laid completely at the offense head coach's feet... But also, once Wade couldn't get his defense to play for him, he needed to go. But Garrett needed to go right along with him... He's the one that screwed everything up to begin with... When they were 1-7, it wasn't like the offense was playing better than the defense, if anything they were playing worse...
So seeing Garrett as the head coach now, makes my blood boil. I just don't think he will bring us superbowls...
