A look inside Jason Garret Coaching Philosophy

Upcoming opponents never have to watch new film.
Lucky Whitehead made a play against the Jets and Howdy thought he'd discovered a weakness in NFL defenses.
We will never win consistently with Garrett,his comparisons to Landry end after you count appendages.
His coaching philosophy is "Fucked 'em out of another year"

That Lucky Whitehead jet reverse was just the new Ogletree bubble screen.

This whole insight into Garrettz philosophy is nonsense. First of all the majority of it was plagiarized from this: Air Coryell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are many deceptions of Jason that are just wrong. He has been analyzed at the DCTimes.com as using motion, formation changes and especially play action following a strong RB output substantially less than what is expected in the scheme. Even when his running game and play action is successful he abandons it in favor of straight pass patterns. PFF measured Demarco Murray's 5 ypc as 2.6 ypc after contact and yet Jason would not acknowledge Murray's individual contribution to the running game. Even worse was that Linehan says that he doesn't give Romo plays but gives him suggestions. So, what kind of scheme is that? How would you coach that? How would you improve or trouble shoot when it's really just an open canvas for Tony to do whatever he wants. Jason emphasized that anyone could run when they decided to run. It's all really silly. The routes that Jason wants to run all game long will only really work with a strong running game that draws more defenders into the box or with very fast WRs. He has neither. And he doesn't care.

But when you look at how the offense is supposed to/historically/statistically has worked, it has been when MB3 and Demarco Murray were given a great deal of attention. But even with the statistics showing that in 2007, 2009, 2014 the Dallas offense scored over 3tds a game which is what most super bowl offenses were averaging during the season but without trying to build on the previous success, Jason starts everything over again with whoever will listen to him or respect him on the offense.

Jason has no philosophy on defense and really has no palpable philosophy for winning games, crunch plays or running backs. He doesn't care because he doesn't know.

Defense wise did it ever occur to anyone that Greg Hardy attacking Bisaccia was him reacting to losing in a way that everyone else other than Dez is programmed not to. It's almost like "hey what is Hardy doing getting upset at passively and positively losing. Doesn't he know that we don't behave like that?" #stepfordplayers.

I'd still like to hear from Scot where he found this. It starts off with "Kirby Lee - USA TODAY Sports".

Surely USA Today didn't print this fan-fabricated garbage?

Ah, got it.

Not accusing anyone of anything -- just seems kind of random to fish out an August 2014 fan piece right now.

It does help expose how delusional and utterly ridiculous BTB is, though. There are countless "fan shots" just like that one.

An article popped up in my news feed about Garret and his coaching. Something in the article made me research Dan Coryell

So it came from reading the Air Coryell wiki which had a section of teams using a variation of his original scheme. The Cowboys being one of them. Then it showed the coaches currently using a variation of his offense and Garret popped up. So I gave it a read and had to laugh to myself. So I reposted it here to get your reaction to it.

Like I said, I wanted to see what you all thought about it

I can probable retrace my steps to find the original but it was already posted here by someone else

I think Scot have solved the mystery of why Garrett's scheme does not really resemble any previously successful scheme nor makes any sense.

That Lucky Whitehead jet reverse was just the new Ogletree bubble screen.

One of the strangest tendencies of Jason is that he repeats the simple and easily detected patterns (5 wide running the route tree patterns known as the 6, 4, 3, 7, and 9) which if you are a blitzing team you are loving because it gives you the time/distance advantage unless you have Torry Holt, Az Hakim and Isaac Bruce (Or just Randy Moss) as your WRs. He loves those elements from his system but when there is a specific play that works well, it doesn't get added (eg Romo naked bootleg for a TD, the Sparano pitchouts, the Dez/rub crossing patterns that always score, the entire DeMarco Murray running playbook etc) to possibilities even as decoys. That's the part that I think is most indicative that Jason is absolutely caught in a thick twirl of his own ignorance.

Where is the building? The scaffolding? The plays that layer plays? Why can't he understand that a running play for 8 yards means that keeping the RB in the backfield gives a deceptive advantage that controls and gives pause to the defense. Removing the RB from the backfield or the play deceit also removes the advantage that this offense requires to work and is designed for.

Generally over time, like since 2007, there should be an abundance of options like Landry, Parcells, Andy Reid, or anyone with a system would have. The suspicion is that there is only a simple playbook that Garrett has no idea how to expand.

My own remedy for this offense would be to bring back a WCO coordinator who could put 1 WCO route in every one of Jason's plays. This route would be based on finding the natural picks and lateral space that are available within 8 yards of the LOS. The player could even be TWilly because the pass is high percentage and close range allowing the belly button catch. Also, the team needs a running game coordinator who is going to spend time designing sequences of running plays that by themselves are punishing. Thinking like Tom Rathman

Garrett doesn't have a philosophy. He has a delusion.

If your entire plan is for the players to just beat the guys across from them, what exactly is your job?

Ya know. What exactly....do ya do here?

Same thing I ask my boss all the time when he is sitting on his ass. What do you do exactly? I manage.

And this is exactly how Romo got hurt the first time this season against the Eagles. 5-wide, and the Eagles sent not one but two blitzing LBs.

Had our WR been able to actually get off the line and get open Romo could have had someone to actually dump off to quick enough to avoid getting nailed

Also if they had hot routes and quick slants they could audible to when the defense is obviously blitzing Romo wouldn't be in danger as often as he is.

The 5 wide would be ideal for QBs with either the speed or the routes that give Dallas the advantage, as Jason so often purports. Parcells used to tell Romo that, in his system, the QB wanted teams to blitz because of the obvious open player. But since the routes do not change and the players other than Dez and sometimes Beasley are not overwhelming their coverage, it's more of a 50-50 (as Steve Young pointed out). Mainly, as Sturm even wrote (after over 3 years of this tendency), "teams have figured out Dallas's empty set".

Simple math of how long it would take to get to Romo loading a side with no RB blocking, compared to how many seconds a TWilly needs to run around press coverage and get into a route that have not changed since 2007.
