Staubach on Garrett-Jones Dynamic: “I Think The Formula's There Again”

Roger Staubach believes Jason Garrett is the right man for the job of working with Jerry Jones

Pro Football Hall of Famer and legendary Dallas Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach was on ESPN Radio’s “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd on Monday to discuss a number of Cowboys-related issues, and while there, he delivered a sort of vote of confidence for head coach Jason Garrett.

Namely, according to Staubach, Garrett has the ability--much like Jimmy Johnson--to work with Jerry Jones, a skill that is uniquely important in Dallas, where Jones likes to be hands-on (many believe) to a fault.

"I believe that you got to get the coach and, in this case, Jerry Jones the owner and general manger in-sync," Staubach said, via the Dallas Morning News. "And I think the formula’s there again. It was there for a while with Jimmy Johnson. Jason Garrett I really think can deal with having an owner that wants to be involved.

“I think Bob Kraft is involved. Not as much as Jerry, but he still has a great relationship with Bill Belichick. I think Jason Garrett and Jerry Jones are going to continue to develop a relationship that’s going to make a difference here."
