Anyone have a good explanation as to the 2-7 Cowboy's thrashing of the Giant's? I know it's a little late but it was good to see them play such a dominating game! Who needs Gruden or Cowher if Garett can get this out of em. Okie's knew this but Dez Bryant is a stud. Wanna read a CRAZY sports book? Pick up Boys Will Be Boys about the Cowboy's. Anyone know that Jimmy Johnson has a genius IQ?
I don't have a good explanation. Maybe the firing of Wade Phillips kicked them in the ass. They might have realized that their crappy performance cost him a job. Jason Garrett probably gave them all kinds of good speeches throughout the week to help motivate them.
The thing is, was Wade Phillips really the problem? All of his assistants got to keep their jobs right? Those are the guys that are coaching and actually interacting with the players. I've always thought that if you want change, fire the whole group (offense or defense). But then, I would have never fired Wade Phillips in mid-season. Hell, I would have probably never hired him to begin with.
Not many Sooner fans like Jimmy Johnson. But I do. I have no doubt that he is a very, very smart man. I enjoyed watching him on Survivor this season because it gave me a whole different perspective on Jimmy.

If Jimmy Johnson had stayed at Dallas, they would have won four in a row, and if he was still there today we can only imagine. Jerry has a problem with egos as big as his.
