Jerry Jones indicates Cowboys have no interest in Mike Vick

After showing off his beautiful new 160-foot big screens and talking technology for a half hour or so, Jerry Jones spent a few minutes talking football.

His response to a question about whether the Cowboys might be interested in Mike Vick was quick and simple: "Romo is our guy."

If you really want to reach, you might note that Jerry didn't rule out Vick joining the Cowboys to run the Wildcat. But the odds of that happening are a heck of a lot closer to none than slim.

The Falcons found out during draft weekend that they aren't going to get anybody to trade for Vick. He's expected to be released soon, so he'll have a say in his next NFL destination. Why would he come to a team with an established franchise quarterback? If he joins a team in a Wildcat role, it'll likely be one where he has a legitimate chance to move up the QB depth chart.

Plus, when asked his thoughts on Vick returning to the NFL, Jerry made it pretty clear (by his standards) that Vick has no place in the Cowboys' plans. He said that's a matter for the league office and any team that has interest in him to consider.

"That's their decision," Jerry said. "I just have to worry about the Cowboys."

There is a God.

Then again, I said the same thing before the 2006 season.

The Almighty has a wicked sense of humor.

I was told by someone I really respect that Jerry Jones is a dog lover and was repulsed by the Vick story. I have never had any doubt since that day that there will never be any interest in Vick by Dallas.

Hate Jerry if you will, but I got his back on that one. No to Vick.

While I think Jerry is talking straight on the issue, I would never rule anything out.

Remember this scumbag also got caught with weed and that was swept under the rug.

So it is more than just being a subhuman with animals, he is also a drug user and jerry has played that game too many times.

This clinched it for me.

I'm going to be honest and admit that I was very intrigued by the thought of adding Vick to the Cowboys, but the Jerrathor beat me on this one. He might forgive, but will never forget, and he's right.

TECHNICALLY he never was caught with weed, just a water bottle with a pungent odor similar to marijuana :laugh1:

Vick is an inhuman piece of garbage and does not belong anywhere near an NFL stadium, let alone with a star on his helmet.

I want to know your thought on Donte Stallworth.

With that said............I hate him a little less.

why do people ask such asinine questions? we have Tony Romo, and just drafted a QB the highest we've done since '02

Maybe for the Wildcat?

But you're right, he's not going to the Cowboys. Al Davis will take him.

Regardless, I was as upset as anybody that he did what he did, but he served his punishment, apologized and deserves another chance.

the wildcat won't stick around defenses was already figuring it out last year, picking up player specifically for it is stupid

 

[Dodger]

Just when I thought I'd already heard the dumbest question every by a reporter...

it's why we drafted Stephen McGee
a QB to develop for the future and maybe see some snaps in the WC while he does

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Adam Jones is twice the piece of **** and half the player. Where was this Jerry last year?

And if we didnt unnecessarily extend T.O. wed get another comp pick.

Eh, hes got us set up pretty well this year.
