How much of the constant losing in the playoffs is on Jerry Jones?

[triplets_93]

We all know Dak was horrible tonight, but year after year when Jerry sits out on free agency or afraid to pull the trigger on a trade, you get what you pay for. Year after year, Jerry and his family sit out on free agency, they don’t go for it anymore and sure enough now it’s been years without even a conference championship game

How much of the constant losing in the playoffs is on Jerry Jones?

You could say from 0% to 100%, but what does that even matter. We all know that the owner is such good friends with the GM, that nothing substantive is ever going to change. You could not think otherwise.

Jerry turned this culture into a clown show and now he is reaping what he created

Bingo!!!

 

[Floatyworm]

From day 1 Jerry let it be known he was the main man in the Cowboys organization. So if one wants to be recognized for the team’s achievements, then one must also take the blame for the failures.

So it is all on Jerry…

....Jerry is literally gonna take it to his grave....being in denial....It was always something...or someone else's fault.

 

[Cmac]

When Dak gets time to throw and is not harassed off his throwing spot, he leads the top offense in the league. So your assessment ignores facts that are there for all to see.

....that would mean a sensible franchise would address OL issues.

 

[Setackin]

Jerry is the GM. Why is it not 100%? It's the GM's responsibility to put the team together.

Because they do draft incredibly well and they are consistently in the playoffs almost every year.

 

[zrinkill]

All of it..... 27 years worth

I think nobody in the building knows how to make trades

 

[Blackrain]

Jerry is 100% responsible He's in 80-year-old man trying to do a young man's job and he is way past it.
Problem is it doesn't seem to bother him if it did he would have done something after the first time the eagles streaked by us and went on to win a super bowl.

Howie roseman has shown him how to rebuild a team again recover from your mistakes and build a super bowl contender.

Jerry again is sitting back and watching the eagles streak past us and does not seem phased

Not incredibly. We are still reeling from the Joseph pick. And the Taco pick.

 

[Blackrain]

I'm still reeling from mostly injured Claiborne when we could have traded up and gotten dantari Poe.

 

[kskboys]

Even better, Fletcher Cox.

 

[Blackrain]

Even better, Fletcher Cox.

Yep he's still playing and will probably go to the super bowl

What?

That’s just not the NFL. Give every NFL QB time and not get him off his spot and he’ll de well. It’s the guys who make off schedule throws and are accurate under pressure that succeed.

What’s there for all to see is Dak is not that. He’s maxed his potential which I admire him for but we cannot win a SB with him and isn’t that they the whole idea?

C’mon man you’re better than that.

I disagree. From your point of view all QBs are harassed and overcome the traffic jam with some super power. Why did Brady look like crap? Because the Dallas defense was putting on pressure. Why do the stat monkeys track hurries? Because they affect the pass play. Why do some teams with competent QB's fail when their offensive lines can't protect?
Why did Joe Burrow fail against the Cowboys? Because the defense was getting after him.

The Dallas offensive line is a mixed bag of nuts that cannot open running lanes very well and surely cannot protect the passer. Now factor in a WR corps which is slow. Cee Dee is the only bright spot.

Now take away one of two offensive playmakers and what does that do to the game plan?
There are reasons plays fail on both sides of the ball. You just watched a rookie QB stand tall in the pocket ion the second half, unharassed and looked like a seasoned vet.

You watched Brady stand in traffic jam while the defense harassed him and the DB's covered.

Again, I am not absolving Dak. But you take away his weapons behind a sketchy line and this is what you get. You don't take care of the engine in your car and you end up on the side of the road.

 

[TheDude]

I'm not understanding your thought process here.

when things are perfect for Dak, he is good.

profound

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

He’s too soft on not firing positional coaches. And too soft on QBs.

all this negates the 2 INTs occurred not under pressures

That seems to be the problem, Dak needs more time? I got it, maybe no pass rush for Dak...Would that help him?

And neither of those lost the game. Losing Pollard, which changed the dynamics of the running game for Dallas, allowed the Niners to attack the QB. Dallas became one dimensional.

They didn't help the cause. But what people seem to ignore with the two picks comment is that with one minute left in the third quarter, the game was tied 9 to 9. Without Pollard, which essentially meant no running game, with the TD by the Niners, it was left to a passing game to mount a comeback.

In every football game you have ever watched at the pro level, the objective of each team is to negate the playmakers of the other team. Pollard was negated by injury, and with the piss poor receiving corps Dallas puts on the field, there was no possibility to mount a comeback.

Again, I am not absolving Dak of those two picks. But in the big scheme of things, they were a minor issue far behind Pollard's broken leg which led to a far inferior offense late in the game.

100%

jerry want all the credit he can have all the blame

jerry is the loudmouth bragging about how he have final say on every single thing the cowboys do

jerry is a clown

 

[tm1119]

99.5%. Not only is the franchise the combination of a country club/clown show, but our ownership also hates adding talent from outside of the organization. Jerry and Stephen’s objective has been clear and obvious for 6 or 7 years now- spend as little $ as possible while keeping the team just relevant enough to keep banking on the brand that is the Dallas Cowboys
