Although Jason Garrett avoided the Black Monday axe, the Cowboys coach won't have the same responsibilities on his plate going forward. NFL.com's Ian Rapoport confirmed that Garrett's job is safe, but Dallas plans to hire an offensive coordinator. "The Cowboys intend to keep Jason Garrett, I have not heard this morning that that has changed," Rapoport told "Around the League" on Monday. "A better possibility is that the Cowboys could hire an offensive coordinator to call plays for Jason Garrett and allow him to be a walk-around coach and essentially just be the leader of men that they think he can be." Garrett presumably has the support of owner Jerry Jones, whose team missed the playoffs after losing a heartbreaker to the Redskins Sunday night. Jones, surprisingly, is bypassing a knee-jerk move; giving Garrett another year is the right decision. He kept the Cowboys in contention all season despite the injury bug ravaging his cl...

Rob Ryan Will Remain Defensive Coordinator in 2013

Well, Jason Garrett’s press conference just finished and he didn’t want to entertain questions about the coordinators, and pretty much defended Rob Ryan. Listening to Garrett just further confirms my fears for 2013, in which, Rob Ryan will be back for the 2013 season. Furthermore, the 3-4 will remain as the base defense, and he will be the one calling the plays – not encouraging...

Cowboys Head Coach Jason Garrett Has No Plans To Give Up Play Calling

Cowboys coach Jason Garrett was admittedly spread thin this season as head coach and offensive coordinator because the so many adversities his team had to face, from the litany of injuries on defense to the tragic death of practice-squad linebacker Jerry Brown. But he doesn’t think the jobs were too much for him, certainly not enough to give up his role as offensive coordinator...

Despite his constant late season failures, head coach Jason Garrett said today Tony Romo has a bright future with the Cowboys (Credit: AP Photo) After another disappointing end to the Dallas Cowboys season, some began to wonder if Tony Romo’s days leading the team were numbered.

Jason Garrett Declines To Say If Rob Ryan Will Return But Expresses Confidence In Him

Jason Garrett stopped short of saying Monday at his press conference that Rob Ryan would return as defensive coordinator next year.

Tony Romo, Cowboys to Work on Contract Extension, With Jason Garrett Saying Romo Is ‘Big Part’ of Team’s Future

In Chicago and Philadelphia, years and years of winning but no playoffs this season has cost two NFL head coaches their jobs. In Dallas, coming up short — but still playing for a playoff spot — is apparently bolstering support for quarterback Tony Romo. Brandon George of the Dallas News says the Cowboys hope to sign Romo to an offseason contract extension. Romo, who has been...

Jason Garrett: Tony Romo is ‘a big part’ of the Cowboys future

The narrative going around the NFL is that the Dallas Cowboys are an incredibly talented team, led by a quarterback that seems to be the most unclutchiest quarterback of all-time. Tony Romo is a fantasy QB stud, but when it actually matters, he cannot measure up with the best quarterbacks in the game. It is almost impossible to not believe this, as we have seen the Cowboys lose season...

NFL Rumors: Jason Garrett Says Tony Romo A Big Part Of Dallas Cowboys Future

Tony Romo has come up short in seemingly every big game for the Dallas Cowboys over the past handful of seasons. When the game is on the line, especially when it is in a crucial situation with a playoff spot at stake, you can almost set you watch by Romo’s failures. But that seems to weigh little in the mind of Romo’s head coach, Jason Garrett. “We have a great belief of Tony...

Jerry Jones Says Cowboys In For 'Uncomfortable' Offseason

Jerry Jones is still seething over a second straight 8-8 season in Dallas that leaves the Cowboys on the outside looking in at the NFC playoffs. The Cowboys' owner and general manager spoke with Jasmine Sadry of KRLD-FM on Wednesday and promised an offseason of change after Sunday's loss to the Washington Redskins cost the Cowboys a division title. "I'm very...

Jason Garrett Still Believes In Cowboys QB Tony Romo

Tony Romo threw three interceptions in a season-ending 28-18 loss to the Washington Redskins on Sunday night, dropping his record to 1-6 in elimination games with the Dallas Cowboys. Instead of altering unflattering perceptions, Romo reinforced them. Despite that, he still has the full faith of Cowboys coach Jason Garrett. "We have great belief of Tony Romo as our quarterback...

Rob Ryan’s future uncertain in Dallas?

During his press conference on Monday, Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett wouldn’t say whether defensive coordinator Rob Ryan will be back in 2013 or not.  But he did give him credit for how well he did with the guys he had to work with after all of the injuries they endured.“If you think about the number of guys we lost on defense – starting, marquee players who are...
