One of the biggest issues with Brandon Carr (and Morris Claiborne as well) was that he was signed to be a press man corner in Rob Ryan's scheme, and beat guys up at the LOS. After year 1 of the contract, Ryan was fired and replaced with Monte Kiffin, who had his corners playing zone, which was not a strength of either Carr or Claiborne. The lack of football philosophy with the Jones Boys is as much to blame as Carr for the production issue.
Carr wasn't worth the contract year 1 WITH Ryan and Claiborne was never good. He was injured , we gave up far too much to move up and get him, and its safe to say he never lived up to being the #6 pick in the draft.

I never blame coaches or management for the failings of players. Those guys are the ones who lose their individual battles on the field.

Sadly for over a decade once I realized what was going on I've been posting "Stephen is a clown" on here. Thought he'd be way worse than Jerry and advocated at least put Charlotte in charge, cuz how much worse can it get.
I wish I was as right w/my stock picks. That guy is a menace to Cowboy's fans everywhere. Nepotism leaders I think rarely work out for the fans.

A lot of these head scratching moves over the past 10 years has been Stephen's growing infuence. jerry is always a risk taker and willing to spend money. The cheapness is Stephen. Jerry needs to take back control.

Stephen also strong-armed Jerry to take Taco Charlton over TJ Watt when Jerry preferred the latter. This guy is going to be even worse than his father. Lord help us.

I read it in a tweet somewhere or an article that Jerry Is far less involved than we know.

This is Stephen’s team day 2 day.

Give it to Charlotte and go from there. If this organization is mainly under Stephen, it will be ran to the ground. Cowboy fans are sick of Jerry but still are slightly enamored with Jerry. We will not hold those same feelings for Stephen. In fact, he is not off to good start as apathy is growing with this fanbase and that is because of him.

Jerry is a buffoon who doesnt want to be overshadowed by a good HC.

Stephen is just cheap and running a business only concerned with the bottomline.

do you really think anyone in that family tells Jerry what to do? Again there is no way Jerry is sulking in a corner while the kids do business...no way.

Of course I do not believe that entirely. I do however believe they have a big influence on what will be his ultimate decision.

Jerry is doing what he always does, he leaks his dumb ideas gets blowback says "This is a group decision" then does it anyway...
