Jerry and the fam has been the one constant here during this drought. He's the owner, GM, and president. He is definitely to blame.
No, the one constant was football and the team being the Dallas Cowboys. They didn't desert you...you deserted them.

Why don't YOU just invest in a cereal box top decoder ring? My statements are simple and not biased as to whipping boys.

The eagles have slightly better players because they make trades and draft well. Jerry never goes all in. The Eagles go all in then blow it up and start over. Jerry doesn’t do that and hasn’t since we found Romo.
It has been Jerrah for 3 decades. We try to convince ourselves it's something else so that way we have some hope.

If that were actually the truth on matters...you are then being the fool.

Myself, I know it's not a valid standing or focus for blame.

If the owner of your job sees your coworkers coming to work lazy messing up everyday for decades then it is the owners fault. He’s allowing it to happen.

Let’s use McDonald’s for example. If the owner of the local McDonald’s sees his employees spitting in people’s food and coming to work 15 minutes late everyday and he doesn’t fire them then that’s on the boss. Silence is approval.

If it was one game were undisciplined play caused us to lose than that’s not on Jerry. But going going on 2 decades of this and Jerry is silent about it? His silence is deafening.
What player needs to be fired is shown a lesson sur?.. what team fees the platters for stupid mistakes constantly?

No, you are the one constant in being biased blind....use what ever number you wish, on both issues!!
So this furthers the idea that Prescott, Lamb and McCarthy (obviously there are more people involved, but you get the point) are able to overcome the issues of the offensive line and are having success through the air. Consider that Lamb just became the fourth wide receiver in team history to record at least 450 receiving yards in a three-game span as even more proof (2018 Amari Cooper, 2009 Miles Austin and 2007 Terrell Owens).

Do you realize you quoted me THREE TIMES to my single post, without me responding once? Are you off your meds? You OK?

Jerry is part of the problem for sure. Extending guys like Gallup and Collins instead of drafting or spending on healthy players at the position. Also expecting Pollard to carry the load behind that line. We all griped about not drafting a guard or tackle in the first 2 rounds. Heck, I wonder how Mazi would fair at guard? :laugh:

All three had different objectives...no, my posts were on differing views related to different causes for disagreement on your objectives. Not at all singular by your statement.

I included a strictly football centered post as you side stepped as you continuously blame game on Jerry goes...you opened that can of worms and not real discussion on offered defference.

And yea, I can count to three!

I have no idea and have even less of an idea why this is important to you. More childish crapp? Sounds like it.
Think China is no relevance as to understanding...then have to comment with something like childish.

You were the one going of in a tangent including Mandarin and you don't even know that there were TWO dominant Chinese languages. We were known as 'dogfaces' when we soldiers policed the Boxer Rebellion and even turned the tide there against the Japanese...'smart guy.'

You really pick personalized fights very foolishly. Let's go... :popcorn: :thumbdown: You have a constant tone of antagonism and agitation against those disagreeing but use a whipping boy approach upon team.

Jerry is the only constant of the last 27 years. The last 27 years we have been a disappointment. I don’t want to list off all the players and coaches that Jerry doesn’t hold accountable for sloppy, undisciplined, and apathetic play. That list for the 27 years would be too long.

Just exactly how do you know anything said or not, behind closed doors. You don't!

If Jerry is holding people accountable then why are we having the same problems over and over again. I don’t need to be behind the scenes. I see the end product and the end product has not changed. The proof is on the field and the proof is Jerry is the only constant. If Jerry is holding people accountable then whatever he is saying is not enough or not strong enough.

First one has to establish a realistic standard to judge a successful team. No, it all isn't just successful unless a Super Bowl or not. That is purely a fan game to place blame without one. That is replacing a credable analysis.

Respectability is not, first, having won a Super Bowl or not. How a team rates going into a playoff or entrance into playoffs is legitimate as a standard for achievement. That has to first be established to even give credability, not even current as to team value, to concepts that are based upon an abstract only within a label of 28 years. That is more of a folklore label.

This was posted by BobHaze:

We could look at the “Jerry years” like this by decade:
  • 1989-1999- the Cowboys won 12 playoff games, including 3 NFC championships and 3 SBs.
  • 2000-2009- Cowboys won 1 wild card playoff game.
  • 2010-2019- Cowboys won 2 wild card games.
  • 2020-2023- Cowboys have won 1 wild card game.
So the 4 total decades of the “Jerry years” translates into one great decade.
The Cowboys have been playing the dirty birds over 60 years. In those nearly 7 decades, the two teams have played each other 128 times with the Cowboys holding the edge all time with a 73-55 advantage.

Here’s a look at the rivalry by decade. The records here include playoff games.
  • 1960s: 10-9 (Eagles)
  • 1970s: 17-3 (Cowboys)
  • 1980s: 10-10 (Tie)
  • 1990s: 14-8 (Cowboys)
  • 2000-2009: 13-8 (Eagles)
  • 2010-19: 11-9 (Cowboys)
  • 2020-present: 4-2 (Cowboys)
The two teams have met 4 times in the playoffs and the Cowboys lead that 3-1.

Here is a comparison of overall playoff wins of both teams by decade:
  • 1960s: Cowboys (1), eagles (1)
  • 1970s: Cowboys (14), eagles (1)
  • 1980s: Cowboys (5), eagles (2)
  • 1990s: Cowboys (12) eagles (2)
  • 2000-09: Cowboys (1) eagles (10)
  • 2010-19: Cowboys (2) eagles (4)
  • 2020- present: Cowboys (1) eagles (2)
Since 2000, the eagles have won 16 playoff games, won 3 conference championship games and 1 SB.
Since 2000, the Cowboys have won 4 wild card games.

(it denotes a direct comparison of achievements between those of Dallas and the Eagles)

I wrote this on the role involved in view of an owner/GM organization:

The two successful GM's/Owners were in Oakland and in Dallas.

Money is not the cause or effect of management. Most Head Coaches try to have GM ability, not for money, but for prestige and being able to direct their own player acquisitions.

In reality, that still boils down to guidance, which here in Dallas is directed by the current coaching staff and acquisitions are first researched and quite accurately by the Scouting staff.

That is still a group project and in Dallas, a team that is very good at player talent and building a team.

To only support a GM led organization is signing off as invalid for specifics that expand in Dallas. This includes to cap control and monitoring continual stability in team cash flows. Stephen has been working with his staff to fully stay on top of getting who coaches want and paying for them in a team setting. That is a good team function and the pair of Jerry and Stephen are pretty good as well as show a present strengthening of the current roster. The players are now good and starting to stay around during peak periods of their respective careers.

Team results are now falling upon the shoulders of Coaches and Scouts. Oh, that is fully functional in the now.

The functional element is the leadership of controlled by the Head Coach and his staff along with the Scouting Department. That isn't just a repeated process...and statistical analysis and staff to review film have been expanded exponentially and really top class and fully in support. The 'franchise' has got currently good and the football is still intensely desired by the Jones Family.

They love the team and not just money. They are so sound there, and money wise could expand money investments and returns.

Just how many GM's are walking around that built a top shelf winner that first didn't 'luck' into a top shelf Head Coach?

Jerry is blessed with not having to do job interviews and team direction and standards for a GM on the basis of a shortened window. And then at the end of a NFL career and have to reestablish schemes and directions as well as having to luck into a fully functional quarterback to even stabilize that window.

Jerry gives stability and selections to his coaching staffs and a very good scouting organization.

Yep, Jerry hobbled out of bounds on the 2 point conversion and choked on the 6 yard line. Old poc.
