Blaming Jerry is the lazy way out

It’s unreal how quickly the plug is pulled in this league at every level.

Overachieving Denver fires the significant portion of the offensive staff for losing the AFCCG (as one small example), yet Jerry and son keep chugging along…as if they are foolproof. Back for more. Always. When will the fans finally figure it out?
 
Hooker is a SS type playing FS, and can't stay on the field.

No idea about 1 play, that's not enough to make a judgment.

If Hooker was that bad, then he should've been replaced. On Jerry.
I actually think Hooker has played well in the past when not injured AND playing his FS position. I don't believe he was ever a SS by choice.
 
Jerry is an old 49er, chipping away with his pickaxe inside an old abandoned mine, hoping to find gold. His story telling not mines, inspires confidence for our future success...
I call him a old drunk vegas card player with unlimited wallet.

"Double down Jerry".

Eternal double down hoping to strike it so he can say "TOLD YA!".

The only problem is he gets richer while losing.

Jerry doesn't like coaches dead money so he is always reluctant to let coaches go unless the proverbial shiet hits the fan like this past season. if we were 27th ranked defense. Eberflus would still be here.
 
If the Cowboys won a Super Bowl during the Romo and Dak years believe me Jerry would take all the credit. He still believes he is the reason for the triplets run. Jerry deserves all the blame for this crap show, especially the last two years because of his refusal to get quality free agents.
 
Simple question: Would any other professional sports franchise hire him as their GM?
Answer: No
I got another simple question. Do people generally talk about the players, when it comes to Matt Millen during his time as GM of the Lions, as for the blame of the lions sucking so much? At some point, sometimes is such a failure that people don't even care about who the players were and what they did.

I Don't think it was Millen years....but I remember Barry Sanders team mates getting totally blasted. Turns out they weren't THAT bad.

But let's say they were....why would the players get such historic heat...when it's ALL the GM's fault.
 
It’s honestly puzzling to me that someone could come to this conclusion AND also be able to type out that many words in row. I’m going to assume AI assisted in all of those words. No way a human could be this clueless while also being able to form sentences
More like AD assisted if any.

That is AD for Artificial Dumbness.

:cool:
 
So we have Dak apologizers and now Senile Jerry Jones apologizers. YEAH! :bow:
 
Reading all these posts about the Patriots and Rams rebuilding while we sit here stuck in the mud made me realize something.

We love to use Jerry as a shield. It's comfortable. It's easy. But honestly, blaming Jerry for the last 30 years is letting the actual players and coaches off the hook.

I know the counter-argument: "Jerry is cheap in Free Agency." And yeah, for a long time, he was. We all hated the bargain bin shopping years. But look at where the money actually goes.

First, he pays the homegrown talent. He resets the market for our own guys constantly. He didn't cheap out on Dak. He didn't cheap out on CeeDee. When we have a star, they get paid top dollar.

Second, the roster is always considered "stacked." Every single August, the national media talks about how loaded our roster is. We at times have some of the highest numbers of Pro Bowlers in the league. You can nitpick a bust here and there, but generally, the GM puts a potential playoff-caliber roster on the field every year.

Third, the "All-In" move. We finally screamed for a big trade, and he went out and got Quinnen Williams and George Pickens. He actually pushed the chips in.

My point is this: The front office does its job by assembling a playoff-caliber roster. They hand over a team loaded with talent. The failure lies with the coaches who can't maximize that talent and the players who disappear in big moments. The resources are there; the execution is what's missing.

When we lose in the playoffs, have losing seasons, is it because Jerry has an ego? Or is it because we have a locker room full of professionals who consistently fold when they get punched in the mouth? The Patriots are in the Super Bowl because their players executed. Ours didn't.

Blaming the owner feels good, but he gave them a loaded deck and they still couldn't win the hand. At some point, we have to stop yelling at the guy in the owner's box and start demanding more from the guys wearing the star.
Jerry is the owner, GM, and walk around defacto Head Coach because he does not let the Head Coach hire on one side or the other if an offense or defensive coach.

Jerry Dumbo GM Jones is to blame for more non winning seasons than winning seasons since 1996, no divisional playoff wins since 1995, and no NFC Championship game appearances since 1995.

It is all his conceited, egotistical, megalomaniac, incompetent GM, wanna be Head Coach, self absorb, nepotistic self.
