What bothers all of us is their contract demands tell us about their desire for a championship, or lack thereof.
They just want to grab every dollar even though they know there is a cap limit.
They know their demands really hurt the chances of a championship because there is a limit to what tricks can be played with the cap.
You play to win the game. You win the game with players and play makers.
So who is in charge of the Dallas Cowboys players, play makers, jocks and socks.
Did Jerry want to win a championship when did not want to pay Demarcus Ware, Demarco Murray, Emmitt Smith, Darrin Smith, Martellus Bennett, etc.
If Dak Prescott did not want a championship, he would not be playing on his 4th round rookie deal at OTAs, in training camp, and planing to win. He would with Zeke in Cabo along with Cooper. Zeke plays a position that has been devalued since the Emmitt Smith days. Zeke also knows what Jerry did to Demarco Murray after he thought Dallas used him up. So it has nothing to do with players who play to win the game. Who said he was in charge of Jocks and Socks?
Jerry could have given upfront guarantee money and extensions to Dak and Zeke after the 2017 season. He chose Sean Lee, Cole Beasley, Crawford, and others on the OL. He gamble that Jason Garrett could coach this team to a Super Bowl before their rookie deals came home to roost. So blame the man that has the money, power, and control. Jason Garrett blew it in 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018 and counting. Jerry Jones is responsible for coaches, and the GM of jocks and socks as he eloquently stated in February 1989.
