The Dallas Cowboys made sweeping changes after this season was finished. Coming into the season with one of their most talented teams from a personnel perspective in quite a few years, the Cowboys severely underachieved. And someone had to pay for it.
With head coach Jason Garrett having almost a decade to prove how right he was for the job, seeing him leave after that ample amount of opportunity to get it right was somewhat bittersweet. But it had to be done.
While their was chatter that Garrett might be considered for the New York Giants’ open head coaching position, that eventually went to former New England Patriots special teams coordinator/wide receivers coach Joe Judge.
