Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett said the main reason the team fired former defensive coordinator Rob Ryan was the lack of turnovers the defense created under Ryan. Garrett said the additions of defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin and defensive line coach Rod Marinelli will help with more turnovers.

Our View: Ryan isn’t totally to blame. The Cowboys outstanding inside linebackers, Sean Lee and Bruce Carter, both ended the season on injured reserve, and their safeties failed to make big plays all year because they just weren’t very good. This could end up backfiring on Jerry Jones.
