Default ESPND: Jerry Jones: 'We've got to play better'

Oct 9

By Tim MacMahon | ESPNDallas.com

Jerry Jones doesn’t see 2-2 talent when he looks at the Dallas Cowboys’ roster.

That, however, is the Cowboys’ record as they come off a bye and enter a potentially season-defining stretch of four road games in five weeks. And not even someone as optimistic as Jones can argue that the Cowboys have looked better than a .500 team, considering that their two losses were lopsided.

“We’ve got to play better,” Jones said Tuesday on KRLD-FM. “And if we play better or play where I think we’re capable of playing … I’m disappointed that we’re not putting more points on the board. I’m disappointed that we’re not getting the turnovers. All of that tells me that at 2-2, we’re in pretty good shape, considering the way that we’ve played.

“I’m not saying we’re lucky to be 2-2, but we haven’t played any better than 2-2. We can play better, though. That’s the good news.”

Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

Yeah, we might play better, but we won't win this game against Baltimore. I cannot get motivated for this game. Very depressing.

Maybe Jerry needs to give another big pre-game speech...I am sure they will enjoy that.

You have to respect his eye for talent.

He has been the GM for a long time now.

The owner must see something in him he likes.

This team is building for the long term, changing the culture, making people (other than Jerry and Felix Jones accountable) its a process that takes time.....

“We’ve got to play better,” Jones said Tuesday

Ya think?

I love this thread.

And all it took was Jerry saying something obvious. Kind of like water is wet. The Sahara has sand. Texas is big.

Thanks Jerry!

Considering how awful we are, we're good shape. Can't wait to visit Baltimore.

Way to go Jerry. You just got on my last nerve. Zai jian!
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.
