Jerry Jones: Jason Garrett's job is safe

[truebluefan]

The Dallas Cowboys have blown five fourth-quarter leads, the coach was criticized for his late-game management leading to a loss at Arizona, there have been issues with the secondary and fourth-quarter penalties, but coach Jason Garrett's job status isn't a concern.

Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones was asked if the rookie head coach is in danger of losing his job if the team doesn't make the playoffs.

"No, not at all," Jones said Tuesday on ESPN's "SportsCenter." "It's really not even something worth discussion. We are really just getting started. We've made the first half step out of the blocks in Jason's career as coach of the Dallas Cowboys. I do intend, if there are mistakes made, then, I want to be around for the rewards when they're corrected. And he's the guy that can correct them."

Jones does like what Garrett has done around Valley Ranch.

That is true. Garrett is only in his first year. You have to give him more time than this. Remember the team he inherited. They are definitely doing better this year, than last year.
