    While Tony Romo has been criticized for the interceptions he threw against the Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys coach Jason Garrett is taking heat for his play-calling. Both Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and CBS analyst Bill Cowher said Garrett should have run the football more when the Cowboys were ahead by 24 points."I put some of that on Jason Garrett, to be honest with you," Cowher told Cleveland Browns Daily. "I think when you get leads in this league, you as a head coach, when you get a lead, you’ve got to be able to manage that. You just don’t play the same way as if I’m down by three or a tie game." Jones concurred, and added that he had already told Garrett. "(If) you look really hard at where we were in the third quarter, you can make a case that if you run the ball a few times and punt it, run the ball a few times and punt it, stats show that you can’t lose it," Jones told KRLD-FM in Dallas on Tuesday. "I’ve had several conversations with Jason and certainly how and what we did from about the five-minute point or 10 minutes left in the third quarter was part of them." So while Romo will remain under scrutiny for his decision-making, so will his coach. Such is life with the Cowboys.

    That would be awesome. But JJ is in love with Red Jesus. But I think we will be fine either way.

    Once again, Cowher IS NOT coming to the Cowboys. He would want too much power, and as we all know, Jerry wouldn't want to give up any of the power he has.

    LMAO bill cowher, known for his masterful martyball jr. playcalling


    i think he becomes comfortable and gets predictable...he was supposed to be the next big thing as an OC and then fell off cause he failed to adjust, same thing happening as a HC
