Firing Comes After Humiliating 45-7 Loss To Packers

Wade Phillips has been fired as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys and offensive coordinator Jason Garrett will take over, according to a television sports report in Dallas.

CBS-11 reported Monday that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones made the move following the team's humiliating 45-7 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night. The loss left the team with a very disappointing 1-7 record.

After the game, Jones said he "can't stomach" his team's performance and that "people will suffer" because of it.

The Cowboys have scheduled a news conference for 4 p.m. Monday.

Hope they get someone like Cowher, I don't think Garrett will cut it

[Dulce]

They both should have been fired.

This should have happened weeks ago and yeah, Garrett should have been given his walking papers too.

I don't know Garrett is Jones darling hand picked by Jerry himself,I don't know if he'll want to admit that mistake

I don't think Garrett will be the HC next season, he'll probably just finish out the season. I would expect Jones to go after a big name after the season is over, but unless he gives up control and hires a real GM, it won't matter.

COWHER would be ideal but Jerry Jones wants to make the personel decisions. Cowher demands control and Jones wont give it up.

then Jon Gruden or John Fox are your candidates. Personally, I like Gruden better
