Jerry Jones: 'I expect success'

It won't matter who's coaching or playing, the resuklts will continue to be similar. Mr Jones has become the Clown Prince of Mediocrity. He is destined to celebrate the wins that his team will get and will minimize the defeats. There's only one cure for Al Davis Disease, and Jerry is simply too healthy for that. All we can do is hope.

I've been a Cowboy's fan for 40 years, but I'm not going to hope the owner dies, just so I can hope the Boys chances of a better product improve. Check your priorities Phil.

A new HC will only cure a symptom while the disease is still running rampant.

Yep. Lets change coaches for the 7th time in the last 18 years. Hey, it was parcells fault, then Phillips was a dummy, now it's all Garrett's fault. I guess it's never the players fault or the self proclaimed "final decision maker" who is at fault.

I'll laugh in 3 years when the next guy either can't take anymore of the "final decision maker" and resigns or he is found just as incompetent as the last 6-7 coaches this franchise as had

Well the two coaches, among all the scrubs that did well here is Jimmy and Parcells. The reason for that was they did things their way and didn't allow Jerry's World to get in the way.

Now where back to where there is no discipline and training camp has a carnival atmosphere. We have another puppet in place that will answer YES to whatever Jerry says to do.

I apologize for that. It is never my wish for Jerry to die, just to step away. Al Davis had a fixed, unshakeable view of how to build a winning football team and time passed him by. I can see how my statement could be seen as the proverbial death wish, but I can assure you, I do remember the victories in the 90's and acknowledge Jerry Jones' role in that.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Jerry Jones has consistently said he likes the direction of the Dallas Cowboys under coach Jason Garrett, but the owner/general manager called that kind of talk "hollow" after the Cowboys' Thanksgiving Day loss.

The 38-31 loss to the Washington Redskins dropped the Cowboys to 5-6 this season, putting them in serious jeopardy of missing the playoffs for the third consecutive season.

The Cowboys failed to come back from a 25-point halftime deficit against the Redskins, the fourth consecutive home game the Cowboys have trailed by double digits.

"That would be real difficult right now because you would have to point to things like comebacks, and that's hollow when you are not winning the game," Jones said. "Or last week, we win one (against the Cleveland Browns) and we have to come back to win it, but we don't win it playing well. So that's hollow right now."

[View Full Quote]Jones noted that Garrett had not "lost the team," meaning the Cowboys continue to play hard. That, however, is meeting minimum requirements, not Jones' expectations for a proud franchise that has won only one playoff game in the last 15 seasons and employed six coaches during that span.

"I don't want to be talking about looking through," Jones said. "Our expectations were to compete for the playoffs and then whatever else we can get when you get there, compete for. We know you've got to be playing well when you get there. We've had some setbacks on some injuries, but that's not the difference out here right now at all."

If the next coach can at least manage the clock, we will win more games.

Pack the bags Opie, you are done son.

[punchnjudy]

So...this is about to be 4 out of 5 years with a near elite QB working for a relatively cheap salary and no playoff appearances...and Jerry wants results.

Yeah, join the club, idiot.

Exactly, if the next coach can at least know when to properly use timeouts and how to manage the clock, we will win at least 2 more games a year automatically.

Sweet avatar pic. Wish I had met him.

Anything short of a big finish and he's probably gone.

If we go 8-8, Garrett will keep his job. It's what we're all about, being mediocre. The Jerry way.

Then, Jerry will say due to all the injuries we could have made the playoffs. Eeeeerrr.

Love your O stats with Garrett minus Sparano.

Garrett is clearly clueless as HC and can't even handle OC duties.

Jerry and Garrett.....

If the blind lead the blind...........

Uh, Jerry admitting that JG is not the answer is implicating himself.. Cause he's put everything into helping this guy succeed, including bringing his whole family here...

There isn't a better suggestion.
