News: PFT: Jimmy Johnson ripped Jerry Jones' claim that Eagles bet it all for one year

[Rayman70]

the older Jerry gets, the more asinine he gets.

 

[Zordon]

He brings never ending shame on us and this franchise.

 

[btgboys41]

Jerry in reality was just trying to cover for the FO being cheap and not winning anything. It was basically him trying to save face for not spending money in FA.

Contrary to what his fanboys think, Jerry Jones cares very much about his image.

That plus wanting to inject a cowboy headline into the nfl super bowl chatter.

 

[visionary]

Which is really weird to me. How does he belong in the HOF? 2 super bowls and 80 wins?

He had a huge part in building those super bowl teams but not sure it is HOF worthy. If he did it again in Miami I would see it.

LOL, and this guy is a Cowboys fan

I can see why you’ve blindly supported Jerry and Dak

I'm starting to think Ken is a member of the Jones family. Nothing else really makes sense

 

[CouchCoach]

Damn, that old fool is a black eye on all the righteous hillbillies.

 

[Rockport]

The Jones haven’t a clue.

 

[Zordon]

Imagine Buddy Ryan yukking it up with Jerry Jones about the Eagles owner. You can't imagine it.

But this is just another example of how low this franchise has gone.

 

[john van brocklin]

Unfortunately the eagles have 4 picks in the top 100 next year including TWO first round picks and a total of six picks altogether in the upcoming draft. They did not mortgage their future.

Lets not confuse Jerry with the facts...

 

[john van brocklin]

The Jones haven’t a clue.

On that, we agree 100% my man Rocky !

 

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

tbf in miami he didnt have as nearly as much control as he wanted, plus he was stuck with a declining Marino. He turned that defense into an elite unit though.

People forget that and you know the owner was not going to let you bench him either.

 

[Redline360]

If it wasnt for Jimmy, Jerry would argurably be the worst owner in the history of the sport or damn close to it.

Jimmy help build the dynasty and "America's team". Jerry has pretty much coasted in constant mediocrity since

 

[bottleKids]

Blasphemy!! Hurts is a laughingstock to many great QB evaluators on this board. No way he could lead his team to SB in his second full season.

"Its the system"

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

It's 2023 people, shouldn't we just simply stop asking or in general listening to Jerry about anything?

 

[Ken]

LOL, and this guy is a Cowboys fan

Yes because I don't believe that JJ should be in the HOF for a 5 year stint as the Cowboys coach...lol 2 of which were losing seasons.

 

[bottleKids]

No one knows what Jerry was talking about. No one agrees with Jerry. It was a stupid comment coming from a guy who has nothing to show for his efforts over the last 28 years. I don't know why anyone puts a microphone in front of Jerry anymore other than to get a controversial quote that grows legs.

I can understand him saying what he said about the Rams. But the Eagles are embarrassing Jerry with their almost perfect team building strategy.

On the other hand, I don't completely agree with Jimmy that the Eagles will be good for a long time. The Eagles have some core players who are aging and have maybe a year or two left. I know they have 1st round draft picks to replace those players but anyone who has watched Jerry try to replicate the Cowboys 1990s success knows catching lightning in a bottle is not as easy as it sounds. When Kelce, Lane Johnson, Fletcher Cox, Brandon Graham and a few others fade, the Eagles will come back to earth, especially after they have to pay their QB. This is not a guarantee because the Eagles seem to be willing to cut players loose for draft picks in order to try to improve their roster. But it is really hard to build a dynasty in the NFL and keep it going with the salary CAP.

I guess the question for the Eagles is, I Hurts really that good, or is he benefitting from a great team around him? Will Hurts be the same player when he doesn't have that great OL in front of him? I am really curious to see this.

Nice post - fair and moderate to both sides of the argument. Agree with everything you said.

 

[DFWJC]

Jerry is such a moron

Disagree all you want with Jerry’s moves (I sure have) or lack thereof, but
One thing Jerry isnt is a moron.

Jerry claimed two years ago that he was all in. Some fans bought it then and some fans think he'll be really really all in after another wasted season since he's old. Well, that question should now be sufficiently answered by the man himself.
