Garrett interviewed for Lions’ coaching job

Per Adam Schefter, Dallas Cowboys O Coord Jason Garrett has already interviewed with the Detroit Lions.

The story can be found here.

Well, he did. Garrett and the Lions met Monday in Detroit’s latest quest to land a head coach to replace Rod Marinelli and snap the team’s losing streak.

I'm not to high on having Garrett as a coach. I'm hoping it was lip service and nothing will come out of this interview.

Thanks for sharing

I hadn’t heard this yet. I’m not too high on Garrett anymore either. That Cowboy offense really tanked hard this year. I think he needs a few more years as coordinator to prove he can adapt better to defenses and prove he’s a leader with the respect of his players. Doesn’t seem like the Cowboy’s offensive players think very highly of him right now.

Garrett is a nobody

The Cowboys weren’t disciplined offensively, and they won games on talent alone

Actually I was impressed

I thought that Garrett did a great job, considering the ridiculous distractions of The Romo & TO Show. I think Romo isn’t anywhere near the quarterback some proclaimed him to be, and TO thinks he’s much better than he is at this point in his career. Having a new #2 WR dropped in your lap in the middle of a season is no easy task for a young OC—especially one with the personality we know Roy has. I don’t think Garrett will be the hire; I really think they want a defensive coach. But, I am thrilled that they really are getting ALL of the best candidates to interview.

I’m really getting sick of the naysayers like Brian VanOchten. What is the point of saying: “Well, the Lions suck, so they won’t get to hire a good coach. They’ll have to hire a sucky coach because they suck. But if they hire a sucky coach, then they’ll always suck! Stupid Lions, always sucking”? How is that either true or worthwhile? It isn’t, and it isn’t.
