Jason Garrett

John Mara and Steve Tisch love Jason Garrett. Garrett loves Mara, Tisch and the Giants organization. Those two things are facts and there’s no way around it.

Does that mean Garrett is a shoo-in or even a favorite? Not at all, but he’s absolutely going to get some consideration and quite possibly an interview if not retained by Dallas, and by all accounts, he won’t be.

But the question remains… If Garrett could not succeed in Dallas with a uniquely talented roster, how could he manage with a much more thin personnel group in New York? It just doesn’t seem like the right fit.
