Dallas Cowboys make right call with new coaching hires

Say what you will about the Dallas Cowboys and their front office but one thing is apparent. When they know, they know.

In the approximate span of three days, owner Jerry Jones, executive vice president Stephen Jones, and vice president of player personnel Will McClay excommunicated nine-year head coach Jason Garrett and reportedly replaced him with longtime Packers head man Mike McCarthy.

For the large majority of the fan base, the thought of Garrett no longer roaming the sidelines would be enough to bring them joy. His tenure as the head coach went on too long, ending awkwardly with reports that he continued with the duties of the job, even though most of the world knew his time was done.
