Jerry: We're not at the level we thought we would be

[Risen Star]

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on @1053thefan on his thoughts coming out of Sunday night’s loss at New York: “We’re not at the level that we thought we would be. … We didn’t play well last week. New York had more to do with it than I thought they would. … We have to be ready to step up the level of play (vs. Washington).”

Today I saw Rockport tell the Joneses to hire a real GM and Jerry tell the world his football team isn't as good as he thought it was just one game into the season.

Thanks for confirming that because we've never seen Jerry and Rockport at the same time so.......

It has been 11,861 days since the infamous Jerry Jones/Jimmy Johnson divorce. 11,861 days since NFL-level GM competency literally walked out the door.

“We’re not at the level that we thought we would be..."

<being possessed by Samuel L. Jackson>

Surprised <expletive>?

So the owner underestimated a division rival on the road and didn’t anticipate that they would need to play at a high level to beat NY… and now says we need to play at a high level to beat Washington

Got it. While other teams work and prepare to win games, we base our level of effort on what we anticipate the level of challenge our opponent might offer us.

No wonder we get out hustled and out worked on a regular basis lol…

Almost a perfect theory but Jerry would never blame himself….have we seen rockport and stephen?

 

[TequilaCowboy]

LOL, Jerry already jumping ship after only one game…. Unfreakingbelievable….

Can’t blame him though.

GM in training with the 20/20 hindsight vision

On record, haters.

....... New York had more to do with it than I thought they would. ….

Well, um, yeah. It's the NFL, every team is populated with professional-level players that play to win. This has been one of the issues with this club, the feeling of ENTITLEMENT just because they are a Dallas Cowboy. The hatred with that moniker in itself inspires opposing teams to give their best shot. Teams are just not going to roll over and lay on their backs and pee on themselves just because the Cowboys step on the field.

A lot of teams think of the Dallas Jones’ as a bye week and have for a very long time.

Hey numbnuts, play the starters at least a series or 2 every PS game. Idiots.

But we're still the most valuable sports franchise in the world
And that's all that matters

It's a double-edged sword. Play the starters in the pre-season and a major contributor gets hurt, like Romo did, our fans say he shouldn't have been playing in the pre-season.

Don't play the main starters at all in the preseason and we start off sloppy, our fans say they should be playing in the pre-season.

I understand both sides. Glad I don't have to make those decisions.

This season has the potential to blow the top off Jerry's kingdom.

Imagine the PC's after, heaven forbid, 0-3.

That's because Rockport is sober Jerry

If they stink it up and lose to Washington I expect the wheels to come off completely. 0-4 is almost certain.

And Jerry went into the season with high expectations and new, handpicked men running the show.

There will be nowhere to hide for him if this goes completely south. Heaven forbid.
