Jason Garrett, the Dallas Cowboys Interim Head Coach, and former offensive coordinator was blasted by Owens as being a poor choice to replace former Cowboys Head Coach Wade Phillips.
On his new show, The T.Ocho Show on Tuesday, November 9th, Owens, a Cowboys wide out two years ago, and now a Cincinnati Bengals Wide Receiver, along with show co-host Chad Ochocinco, asked Chad about the firing of Phillips by Cowboys Owner and General Manager Jerry Jones.
Here's the video:
"From my experiences there, it's not Wade Phillips. But how do they think Jason Garrett is going to right the ship? No. He was the offensive coordinator? Just put this in perspective. Last week Green Bay scored 45 points. So obviously, if they're scoring touchdowns, then they're kicking off to the (Dallas) offense. They only mustered-up 7 points. Jason Garrett is the offensive coordinator. So if he's not putting points on the board, it's not Wade Phillips fault."Under Jason Garrett Terrell Owens posted his lowest season performance totals of his career in 2008, with 1,052 yards and 20 touchdowns, then Dallas released him after that year. With the Bengals, Owens is already at 770 yards and 7 touchdowns. Owens is correct: Jason Garrett is not the solution.
The problem is Jerry Jones thinks Garrett is the solution, and has become spell-bound by Jason's confident speech and tone. But confident speech and tone don't win football games; good coaching does. This blogger agrees with Owens that Garrett isn't the answer:
But Garrett's in now, and on a short time frame to make a difference. He must engineer a way to beat The New York Giants. Only that will save his job, and it's a big first test coming up.
If he fails that, forget about the rest of the season and forget about Garrett as the Cowboys coach for 2011.
