, Texas -- Jason Garrett turns 50 years old today.
The red hair is still bright, but there are some flecks of gray now. Call it aging or call it what happens when you coach an NFL team, especially one like the Dallas Cowboys.
He is entering his sixth full season as the Cowboys’ head coach in 2016. Only Tom Landry has coached the team longer. Only Landry has more wins than Garrett.
But last year’s 4-12 finished has dulled the good feelings created from the 12-4 finish in 2014. A year ago at this time, the Cowboys were considered one of the NFC’s best teams with a quarterback coming off his best season, a dominant receiver, a dominating offensive line and an opportunistic defense.
