Jason Garrett is now a free agent

With the Cowboys losing in dramatic fashion on Sunday, some additional drama could be coming.
Coach Jason Garrett’s contract has expired. He is a free agent. He can be hired by any other team.
Owner Jerry Jones recently said he intends to keep Garrett. But other owners can now pursue him.
In 2008, Garrett rebuffed the advances of the Falcons and Ravens, choosing an offensive coordinator position in Dallas along with the chance to eventually become the head coach. Now that he’s done it for four full seasons and half of 2010 on an interim basis, Garrett has the chance to look around.
Why shouldn’t he? If nothing else, it’ll force Jones to pay more than he wants to pay.
Vacancies currently exist with the Jets, Bears, Falcons, Raiders, and 49ers.
*****************************
Nobody wants him. Team is better when responsibility is taken away from him. Yeah that’s the kinda of head coach every team dreams of. It’s been marinelli, linehan and Callahan.
----------
Cowboy fans should be extremely pissed if Jones doesn’t do everything he can to keep Garrett. Consistency at the GM and coaching staffs is the best way to get your team into contention and the best way to stay in contention. Changing coaches basically amounts to throwing away at least one season so it’s not something that should be done when your team is a few tweaks or lucky bounces away from getting back to the championship game.
-----------
He is nothing but a figure head. A Mustache Pete.
He has two offensive and two defensive coordinators.
All Garrett does is give the post game press conferences.
----------
Jerry will fire Garrett as soon as people give him too much credit (for Jerry, that means any credit).
----------
Who is gonna want a slightly used Jerry Jones ventriloquist doll?
-----------
Let him walk! You can put anyone in his place. What you can’t replace: Linehan, Callahan, and Marinelli.
Keep the latter 3. The HC can go.
Scott Linehan, Rich Biccacia or Hue Jackson can replace him.
Save some $$$ for a change.
---------
This just in:
Jerry appoints himself head coach.
----------
Dallas is the best situation for Garrett. Not sure anyone else would look at him as HC material and JJones wants somebody he can control. I think JMcDaniels winds up in Atlanta, reuniting with former Pats Pioli and Dimitroff.
