Stephen Jones podcast with Ed Werder, doesn't seem happy with JG

[rags747]

I don't like the fact that it seems like the team is already locked in on Dak, talking contracts etc.
If he repeats the performance of his soph year then I want a new QB, how many yrs do we have to wait?

If Dak doesn’t improve this year then I see Dallas taking a step with bringing someone else in next years draft and giving Cooper Rush a chance

I doubt they will be signing him anytime soon so if he bombs in 2018, I suspect they know they have a QB issue.

Don't tease me Stephen.......

For real

 

[KingintheNorth]

Well, it can't be the Jones' fault, so if this doesn't work out it must be Garrett's fault.

 

[Kevinicus]

His comments on Dak are concerning.

 

[Jake0]

Hell no he has a cush gig and he can play golf when ever.

Yeah but he's a competitor and still hasn't ever gotten a super bowl ring. He can still get one. Doesn't seem like the type of person to sit back and be a family man. Gruden could only take it for so long.

Another Head Coach in training?

He's a smart dude and loves football, but one hell of a roll of the dice counting on a QB with no coaching experience to be your HC.

Everyone can take clips and snips from interviews and have it back their point of view. I'd like to hear the whole interview. Does anyone have it?

 

[Dre11]

I listened to it too. He said they all weren’t satisfied and expected more including Jason.
Nothing was said that gives you the impression they aren’t satisfied with Garrett. Think that has been overstated here.

 

[Wizarus]

Eagles also hada defense. 201 the defense was shell of is "horrible" self from 2014. Great the Eagles won a super bowl with a back up QB how often does that happen. So you are saying Weeden, Cassell, and Moore were at least on Par with Foles... Not all back up QBs are the same. 2015 had teams had a lot of issues, too many to overcome to be successful.

Not just then, we've consistenly shown we have no ability to adapt to injuries. We rely purely on being more talented than the other team while having no talent depth, and have for years now.

 

[ShortRound]

I'm telling ya, Stephen won't touch JG while Jerry is alive.
But I suspect he'll clean house when it's his time to....

or I've watched too many mob movies.

His comments on Dak are concerning.

It's probably just giving Dak a vote of confidence. A young QB needs to know he has the confidence of the FO and coaching staff, or he'll be pressing, trying to do too much.

I was listening to the Domsday Podcast with Matt Mosley and Ed Werder last night. Werder did a one on one interview with Stephen which lasted a solid 20 minutes. I found some of what he said pretty interesting especially in regards to the JG:

Team has underperformed given the talent level and should be perennial playoff contenders and competing for championships.

Team has not handled adversity well and zero excuses for injuries/no Zeke. He said injuries are a part of every NFL teams season and you have to adapt on the fly, mentioned the way the Eagles responded and not just at QB.

No position is off limits in the first round except for probably QB/RB and will take BPA/highest player ranked on their board if it's close. He said teams get in trouble when they reach due to need.

Has huge confidence in Dak and thinks he is a franchise QB. He said his style of play compares more closely to Troy Aikman rather than Tony Romo. Dak is better running a system than improvising on the fly. He anticipates Daks next contract to resemble franchise QB money.

He is pleased with the FA moves done so far. He still believes 100% in the philosophy of building through the draft and that most free agents are vastly overpaid. He did admit that last year they did a poor job in FA.

No word on Z. Martins contract. Had very little to say about Dez, only that he thinks very highly of him as a player and a person and they will be getting together soon to talk.

Maybe because it was a one on one podcast with Werder, Stephen sounded more relaxed and less defensive with the Q&A. What really jumped out at me was his indirect shot at JG. When you talk about a team underperforming and not handling adversity well that speaks directly to the HC. This is a far cry from the lollipops and rainbows talk his father usually uses in regards to JG. If this has already been posted I missed it and sorry for rehashed info. Oh and don't shoot the messenger.

Stephen and Jerry have sucked at the GM position. How dare they point the finger at Garrett. Always deflecting blame!

Thanks man. Will give a listen

 

[SportsGuru80]

Stephen Jones is what this team needs as an owner.

Part of it is depth once you make it past 1 string the talent level falls off tremendously. Depth is a FO issue then a coaching issue a coach can only coach what he is given if you A-1 starters and scrubs for back ups guess what when you start losing starters your talent level drop precipitously. Depending on the position you may be able to "coach" around it for a while.

"Team has underperformed given the talent level and should be perennial playoff contenders and competing for championships."

Of course he would say that. Father and Son assemble the roster. I'm no JG fan, but there is 2 decades of evidence that the Jones clan has no idea how to construct a perennial playoff contender.

I think the future is bright with the prospect of Stephen assuming a growing role in leading us forward. I just like his approach much more than Jerry's. Sue me.
