This is a win win for everyone in the cowboys organization except the head coach.

Jerry: #1 most valuable franchise. That's HIS superbowl. He's ALREADY won it this year!

Players: every authoritative figure in the Cowboys organization is a puppet for Jerry, and none of them have any real power. Jerry is fine with the players...win. lose or draw. They can just go out there and ball, and if they win then great, but if they lose that's OK just try harder next year. Sure, he'll sacrifice a kicker here or there, but everyone else is safe under Jerry's wings.

Jerry will fire a coach every couple years as a scapegoat....and then start it up all over again!.

The only losers are the coaches ....but they know the deal when they sign on....... and the fans. At LEAST the ones who only care about a SB win, which is a small percentage compared to those who measure a successful season as double digit wins and a Wild Card or Divisional round playoff loss.

My only beef is I wish I could work for Jerruh. No pressure! A car salesman has more pressure to perform than Jerry's employees!
The only problem for Jerry is that he has to rely upon his team. He does every last thing to empower them, but quit.

The man doesn't know quit, and I respect him for that very fact. He gives it his all and in the final evaluation, tries to do it both ethicly and moraly straight on the sacrifices by his team. He tries to make it right no matter what the picture.

He doesn't break laws, but he does keep a winner's references.

I have faith in human nature and expect the desire to win with all the advantages and demands...well, will make the path to the top, again.

I like when Jerry just comes out and states that the Super Bowl is not a benchmark.

Team leadership sets goals for the squad. If the goal is to simply make the playoffs in the weak NFC with basically half the teams qualifying, then the bar is pretty low.

Is the circus that entertaining for you fans, when the ringmaster basically does not care to take the postseason performance very seriously? There is no real way to categorize this except as a loser’s creed. I can respect a business being built, but the part of my fandom that gets very excited is embracing the most difficult matchups and still triumphing. This is like saying high fives all around if the team is better than 9 out of 16 teams. In fact, have some drinks and kick your feet up-if the team goes further great-otherwise who cares? I wonder what Landry or Johnson would make of this owner?

Never has been or will be with these Jones. SB isn't their goal.

Sorry, that just isn't the reality of human nature. This country is all about fighting for success and Jerry isn't immune for that very gamble to win.
There is no way in hell Jerry is 'fighting for success' or gambling to win. He said it himself that he wants to remain relevant and interesting. If he was truly chasing super bowls he would have fired his lousy GM 20 years ago.

I hope Jerry is paying you well for your blind support.

Wow..... Are you Mickey Spags? Geez. See the bold part at the end? That isn't happening until Jerry is gone.

Landry started only watching the Giants after what had happened to him, that should be all we need to know.

This guy put a fan meet AI of himself in his house of narcissism.....you really think he is cabable of admitting he is wrong?
Jerry's a BSer. I remember him adamantly stating he wasn't going to bend with Martin's holdout. Same thing with Zeke's contract. I believe one tenth of what Jerry or his AI hologram spews. After what Jerry did to Landry and Johnson, he deserves what he gets with his team.

The NFC is historically weak. It’s not debatable and has been for the last couple seasons.

Its SB or bust but Jerry doesn’t want to either acknowledge it nor say it out loud….we know better.
I think the NFC East will show some vast improvement this year.
How much improvement time will tell?

Even though the Dallas Cowboys are expected to be one of the NFL's best teams this season and made several big additions in an attempt to get over the hump in the playoffs, Jerry Jones doesn't view 2023 as must-win year for his franchise.

In an interview that will air in full on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown (h/t ESPN's Todd Archer), Jones downplayed the idea that it's imperative for this roster to win a Super Bowl:

"How we are as a team as we evolve through this season, all of that we'll weigh. We could very easily have a team that doesn't hold the trophy up but be dramatically better than one that if you cleaned house. So we'll let that set of facts, [let] that play during this '23 year be the influencing things when we get to '24. You ask me, 'Is winning the Super Bowl imperative without blowing this team up?' And I say, no, it is not."
