Coaching

September Grade: C-
October Grade: D

I honestly believe in my heart that if this team had a different head coach and offensive coordinator, this team would easily be 5-2.

The mind-numbing decision to punt on 4th & 1 from the Houston 42-yard line in overtime was inexcusable. The decision to essentially play for a tie against Washington may have been worse. Time and again, Jason Garrett and Scott Linehan make this team worse.

The one bright spot, a 40 point performance against Jacksonville, cannot even be credited to them. During the broadcast, we learned on multiple occasions that they essentially just copied the Chiefs game plan from the week prior.

If this season continues down the path it is currently going, all fans will have to look forward to is the removal of both of the two.
