The other side that brings pecimism is that Jerry does things to undermine the team, whether he intends to or not. For instance, his talking to Garrett on the sidelines of the second Eagles game caused an unneeded distraction. Him saying how he makes all final personeel decisions as GM, and so it would make no sence to bring in someone to provide perspective because it might muddy things; well that's a disstraction too that undermines the coach. So is Jones always playing "chummy" with the palyers and leaving his door open for them, undermining his coaches as players walk past that dooor to go knock on Jerry's.

Jerry Jones = undermining distractions all around!

[View Full Quote]Yes Jerry Jones brought in Parcells and he walked away a year or 2 early. By his last years Jones was being more "suggestive" and Parcells wanted out before it got out of hand. Before that Jerry had stooges running the team because he could treat them like, well, stooges. Him later admitting that he fired Gailey too early was a bad move. No Jerry the bad move was hiring him in the first place.

Jerry does not get it, and because he does not he'll ruin it for Garrett the more he tries to help him - and help (ruin) him, he likely will.

It's about jerry - Jerry says so himself!

The only people I have heard of who were distracted are fans and media. I've not heard a single player or coach say it threw them off their game.
