I don't have a problem with it.
Clearly ESPN is not comparing a coach to an owner, they are comparing one era to another. The face of the Cowboys during the years 1960-88 was clearly Tom Landry. And the face of the Cowboys since 1989 has just as clearly been Jerry Jones.
Comparing the Murchison era to Jerry cuts off the last five years under Landry. And comparing the Landry era to the Jimmy era also cuts off a huge chunk of time after 1993.
I think the Landy era vs the Jerry era is the only comparison that makes sense if you want to capture the entirety of the Cowboys' history.
I never said one man was better than the other, although I would agree with those who claim Landry was the better man. Nor did I ever claim that one era was better than the other, but again, I would agree that, taken across the entirety of each era, the Landry era > the Jones era.What you said about eras is true. So they could have just put as the 1st 30 years (yes that was 2 years into Jones time) and the last 30 years without using any coach or owner labels. Yes both mean were/are the face of the franchise but they had/have two completely different jobs so how can you say one is better than the other?

Only fans who’d say 3 Rings over 2 as the only measurement would come to any conclusion otherwise.I never said one man was better than the other, although I would agree with those who claim Landry was the better man.

?Dah, I paint faces, yet don’t know history.
Kinda like your post. Those pictures were all photoshopped. Within 5 minutes I can have Landry & Jerry's bodies switched. Surprised they allowed you to post this garbage being it's a family site.Class vs No class
