Decoding the Cowboys staff: What to make of the Scott Linehan comments by Jason Garrett

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
– George Santayana
It is the offseason for the Dallas Cowboys. Which, in many ways, is synonymous with “silly season”. Fans and media alike are prone to hasty and often unfounded reactions to even minor things. That was once again evident when, during a regularly scheduled radio interview, Dallas head coach Jason Garrett said something that was the exact opposite of what so many were hoping to hear.

For those who have paid absolutely no attention to the Cowboys the past couple of seasons, offensive coordinator Scott Linehan is the current villain of the team, taking blame for the loss in the divisional round to the Los Angeles Rams, consistently predictable play calls, bad game plans, red zone inefficiency, third down failures, political turmoil, the opiod crisis, and global warming.
