Dallas Cowboys Head Coach Fired

Dallas Cowboys fire their head Coach Wade Phillips after losing to Green Bay 45 - 7.
Jerry Jones has hired Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett to be the new head coach. Wade Phillips made a great team at Dallas for the past 3 years but his time has come short. Words from Wade Phillips

"Obviously this is a very difficult decision for me, our team, our organization. We're clearly not where we want to be. That's an understatement. We also share the responsibility in that, all of us. An in-season coaching change is something that I have not done before, something that I was reluctant to consider as late as ... Saturday night. ... There was a lot of me in denial. ... But at this time, what's in the best interest of the organization and the fans is a coaching change.
"I recently addressed the team. I told them that they should not think for even a second that this is in any way an admission of defeat or finality for this season ... that the evaluation process will begin with finding the guys that play the hardest. I told 'em we were looking for players that want to win the most. ... We are not recognizing the need to play in a winning way."

Jerry Jones words
"I do believe that Jason has the disposition ... to affect [sic] a culture change. His style is one that I think can be real effective. Culture change does work. I think this gives us a chance to do it from within. If we do outstanding as a team and have very visible, very tangible success then that's certainly doing your job in a crisis situation. That kind of action goes beyond a resume. Jason has some qualities of leadership, some qualities of organization. He's very smart. He's got some qualities that can get us where we want to go."

But hey we a GIANTS fan so we don't really care.
