FOX Sports NFL Insider Jay Glazer reported on the future of head coaches for the Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, Minnesota Vikings, New York Giants, Denver Broncos and Cleveland Browns.

Cowboys Sticking with Garrett:  “Jason Garrett is going to end up being the permanent head coach in Dallas. The Cowboys satisfied the Rooney Rule by interviewing their wide receivers coach Ray Sherman. They’re also going to talk contract extension with Garrett for two reasons. No. 1 the players responded to Garrett.  No. 2 is because of the potential lockout. They wanted to stick with a guy that already knows the personnel.”

49ers Reach Out to No. 1 Choice:  “They’ve already reached out to their No. 1 choice and that is Stanford head coach Jim Harbaugh. If they can’t get Harbaugh, they’re going to look at several head coaches like John Fox, FOX Sports’ own Brian Billick, and Jon Gruden so they’re going to go through the entire gamut. The players in the locker room that I’ve talked to say, ‘just give us someone who isn’t going to beat us down the way Mike Singletary did.’” 

Eagles Win Secures Frazier’s Job in Minnesota:  “Leslie Frazier will get that job.  Going into the Philadelphia game, I would say it was 50/50 but after the performance they had that night, the players and owners were happy with the outcome. The owners know that there’s no drama with Leslie Frazier.”

Analyst Jimmy Johnson believes the Rams have the momentum to finish atop the NFC West:  “I was on the Seattle bandwagon early but as the year has gone on, Seattle has gotten worse. St. Louis has gotten better every single week and they’re a much better team than Seattle right now. Seattle has won two of their last nine games, beating Carolina and Arizona but that’s nothing to brag about.”

Co-host Terry Bradshaw gives the Baltimore Ravens the best shot at beating New England: “The way the Ravens are running the football now, I believe that Baltimore will move on in the playoffs and I do believe that’s the best team to beat New England in New England.”

Analyst Howie Long reflects on the 2010 season:

On Brett Favre’s 2010 season:  “Simply put – Brett you’ve had a great run, given us thrills to last a lifetime but for goodness sake, Ulysses had a shorter journey home.  Go home my friend.  It’s time.”

On Michael Vick:  “To me, 2010 will be remembered for the redemption of Michael Vick. Two years removed from Leavenworth, he’s a serious MVP candidate and had the sitting President support his second chance. I hope his journey continues in the right direction so we don’t have to go back and rewrite what is 2010’s top story.”

With Carolina guaranteed the No. 1 pick in the next NFL draft, analyst Jimmy Johnson thinks the Panthers should give up on Jimmy Clausen and look to the future:  “If you have a chance to get Stanford’s Andrew Luck, you never bypass a franchise quarterback.”

Co-host Terry Bradshaw on whether the Vikings should keep Joe Webb as their quarterback next season:  “Why not? He was a sixth round draft choice brought in as a wide receiver and now he’s their quarterback. He gives the Vikings something positive and something for a Vikings fan to build on for next year. I’m awfully impressed with what he did against the Eagles.”
