To be fair, Jerry deserves most of the blame. Yeah, Dak once again stunk it up, but Jerry isn't helping in the off-season by fixing problem areas. He likes his guys. It's sort of funny that Dak's subtly calling Jerry out publicly like this. More players and coaches need to do it.
I'm just surprised Dak would bite the hand that feeds him.
Why not? Dak knows this is likely his last contract and the contract has Jerry by the short and curlies. No trade clause and Dak's gonna get paid regardless. He can say what he wants because Jerry won't keep him benched or cut him. While I am no longer a Dak fan, I applaud him calling out Jerry in that way. Likely it was requested multiple times privately and Jerry didn't listen, so public it is.
Aikman won his first 7 playoff starts including 10 of his first 11.How good was the great Troy Aikman when the Cowboys had garbage around him?
Try a measly 13.0 PPG and 0-2 record in 1993 when Emmitt was holding out.
Try being booed off the field, at home, in the late '90s.
You people know nothing about football.
and a DT and a DE and a CB that tackles and a RT and a HC and a OC and a DC and GM…
right he cant understand why the team is struggling .
Aikman's maybe my favorite player ever. He's up there with Emmitt and Michael for me, a '90s kid.
Why do you guys hate our legends so much? Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith, Irvin, etc... They have all been put down by daksters....How good was the great Troy Aikman when the Cowboys had garbage around him?

Wrong. I'm a '90s kid who reveres The Triplets.
Did the team suck because we couldn't afford to surround him with players, because of his contract? If Jerry said we couldn't afford D. Henry, wouldn't that be because of the contract he was giving to Dak? Who can we afford in that case that will put Dak over the top? Answers?
We have plenty of cap space sitting around. Signing Dak lowered his cap hit.
Try sucked when he lost Irvin and we never got a replacement. But after Harper left, how often did Aikman have a true number 2? He still managed to get it done with Irvin being constantly double covered. After we lost Jay Novacek, did he ever have a true replacement? Aikman still managed to get it done. People seemed to expect Aikman to play with what he had, there wasn't as much whining about him not having receivers as there is for Dak. Dak supporters are some of the whiniest bunch when it comes to what he doesn't have.
And, honestly, that was more on the abject putridness of massage boy.

You actually believe Jerry when he says stuff?
Na man, just look at the Eagles and the 350 million they've spent in void years. Yet here they are picking up Saquon and re-signing guys. They can push money way out front and move numbers around. They choose not to.
