Video: ESPN's Herm Edwards Livid Over Cowboys Coverage

[Creeper]

I would be happy if ESPN stopped talking about the Cowboys. Same with Colin Cowherd, Stephen A Smith and the rest of them. The less they talk about Dallas the harder Jerry will work to get them in the conversation again. Maybe he will get them to a Super Bowl that way.

Sorry Herm.. Ratings Don't Lie...Cowboys Are a Juggernaut For The NFL.

Cowboys dominate TV ratings again, played in 5 of 10 most-watched games..​

Herm Edwards, a failure at every head coaching job he's had. The recruiting violations that went on at Arizona St that kind of got covered up. I'm tired of seeing Herm Edwards on my TV when he isn't worthy of being on TV.

This is what happens all the time. The sports media hypes up the Cowboys in the beginning of the season every year saying it could be their year, only because Cowboys Nation is huge. They want our viewership, that's it. They pander to the Cowboys for ratings......and it works every time.
Other fans see this then they think we think this way and they think we're delusional. Again, it works every time.
Because of all of this, the Cowboys games get huge ratings by fans who love and hate the Cowboys. The Cowboys really are the NFL's cash cow.
I personally hate how they work our fan base this way. Yet I know it'll never stop.

It's a mystery like why anyone cares about the Kardashians.

It is ridiculous. Jonesboys have not been the Cowboys for 27 years.

As far as I'm concerned, Hermes can go suck on the Dallas Cowboys Star....to use as a pacifier for his crybaby self....

[Captain-Crash]

he didn't say anything that wasn't true. if it hurts your feelings oh well. We are not the Cowboys, we are the jonesstupid cowboys.

 

[Lutonio]

And now he’s part of what he claims to hate. It’s like a zombie virus.

I don’t see how anyone’s going against what Herm is saying. Think about this, if Undisputed and First Take couldn’t talk about the Cowboys nor LeBron they would be 30 minute shows.

I’m tired of them putting the Cowboys in segments that don’t naturally belong in. For instance Undisputed talked about Jalen Hurts contract and what its expected to be but that soon devolved into Daks contract. So the 15 minute segment was 4 minutes Hurts and 11 minutes Dak.

I definitely don’t think that the over the top media coverage helps the team at all. Everything that they do is magnified. Daks 40 million dollar contract gets brought up but Murray, Carrs and Wilson’s never get spoken of and they didn’t even make the playoffs.

When is he gonna rant about the Yankees and the Lakers?

We've gone from celebrating championships to celebrating TV ratings. Whoop-de-bleepin-do.

They have both won championships in the 21st century. The Cowboys haven't even won a divisional round playoff game in that time.

Slight difference, not to mention he only covers football.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

I never have and never will care what a Philadelphia Eagle has to say, but I am glad that we irritate him so much.

Yeah he was drafted and played all but the last two years of his career with the Eagles. Shocker he is envious of the attention Dallas gets!

I don't know about celebrating but it is what the people want.

 

[RobZ]

NFL's 21st century version of the 'National Equirer' fallback\go-to topic (ala a controverstal\scandalous Hollywood celebrity) on the front page to generate people to pick up and read/buy a copy at the retail register checkout line.

At least the Inquirer had a good crossword puzzle.

 

[Established1971]

He is 100% right, but haters should not take this out on the fans, like Stephen A Smith does or the same with random people I meet in life for decades. I have to take schidt because of Amercas Team all the time. I stopped telling people I root for them. Its like telling people your politics

I'll take "How to show Irony by talking about what you dont want talked about" for 500 Alex-

He has an IQ the size of a marble...maybe that is why the Good Lord looks out for him so much, and gives him feathery soft landing spots at every turn...he wasn't even smart enough to figure out what side of the bread his was buttered on, in regard to what moves the dial and who he works for.
