Deion says don't blame Jerry: "That's the same owner that put u in that luxurious stadium...That's the same owner that got u 3 Super Bowls."

Deion on Garrett: "You can’t have a problem w/ him calling the plays and being the head coach when u got Sean Payton doing the same thing."

Deion: "(Rob Ryan) had 2 years to do work and the defense was climbing. They were ranked in the top 10 the whole season, until the end."

Cowboys have too many Tontos and not enough Lone Rangers

While doing a local radio interview Thursday, the Hall of Fame cornerback discussed why the Cowboys haven’t had recent success.

“Jerry’s not the problem,” Sanders said on the Ben and Skin Show on 103.3 [KESN-FM]. “I think some of the players are the problem but you won’t call them out. Tell me, was Jerry the problem on the field in Washington? What was the problem?”

Sanders, an NFL Network analyst, then said he wasn’t calling out the “big name” players like Tony Romo and DeMarcus Ware because that would be “too easy.” Instead, he focused on “some role players” that “aren’t playing their roles.”

“You don’t have that many Geronimos or Lone Rangers on the Dallas Cowboys,” Sanders said. “You got a bunch of Tontos. A bunch of Tontos, not too many Lone Rangers that are really riding the horse and calling the shots and able to put it down on the field when it’s time to put it down.”

Who is in charge of collecting all these "tonto's". Deion always has been and always will be an idiot.

17 years and counting

I feel like I lose IQ points every time I read his blather

[HoustonFrog]

This just makes me think that I'm wasting my life in this law office and that I can automatically get a job at the NFL Network making commentary. He is an idiot. I get what he is saying about no leaders...might be semi-true...but despite his help in getting us a 3rd in the 90s, he was/is a clown.

His old lady needs to beat him up some more.

[Idgit]

What a big, stupid, hypocrite Deion Sanders is.

[mldardy]

Deion said a lot of incorrect and dumb things right here.

[Doomsay]

Yeah, I'm not sure that you want to use the Lone Ranger as a leadership paradigm.

It's nice to have a thread where everybody can agree, for a change.

[Galian Beast]

Ad hominem.

Who knew Deion could be a great unifier?

[Gameover]

i can't stand deion sanders but he's right.

jerry didn't fumble the jets game away.

jerry didn't throw the lions game away.

jerry didn't ice his own kicker.

jerry didn't overthrow miles austin.jerry didn't fail to use his timeouts properly.

jerry didn't take the field looking petrified at giants stadium...and proceed to overthrow a wide open dez bryant(on a sure td.would have reshaped the entire momentum of the game) on third down of the opening drive

Deion, are you a unifier, or an annoying imbecile? "Both."

[Sasquatch]

Somewhere in Deion's strange allusions there are seeds of wisdom ... somewhere.

Jerry hired the people who did all of those things.
