1. Would he continue to preach that we need to spend less and draft well?
2. Does he hire an actual GM to run the football operations
3. Does he take risks and gambles as his father had done in his career as the owner of the Cowboys
4. Will he be as involved in the press conferences, and look for attention in the media as his father did
5. Will he allow his head coach to be the head coach and want all the control

This should be interesting to see your thoughts on how you feel Stephen would control this team, Please give your thoughts!

Email him and just ask.

He would run it exactly like his daddy taught him, which is no different than how it's running now.

Some of you are saying he'll possibly hire a GM, would he really?? I think it would be an honor for him to do this, because we've been saying that Jerry needs to have done this for years

I guess what I am saying is we don't know what he will do because we do not know how much his father influences him today. Certainly Stephen is not in control of the team, Jerry is. But as I said, I don't think Stephen is as smart as his dad was so he could be worse when he takes over.

Much the same except with fewer lipsmacks.

That is not his focus area with specialty. This is still dependent upon team input and specialties. There are many reasons why fans are not directly questionaired in taken polls. Jerry already provided interactions there.

Good luck applying for positional pay and voice also.

I don’t believe that Stephen is anywhere near as vindictive as the old man. He will not attempt to intimidate or threaten the media, and the criticism will increase as the drought approaches 40 years.

I’d therefore guess he will eventually hire a GM to appease the fans (which Jerry would never allow), but it won’t matter as they will not be authorized to sign top free agents, so what’s the real difference?

Still, many contending teams are wheeling and dealing to get the roster the right way…to have the personnel to run the schemes.

I really don’t know how you go for a decade and a half without signing a top end FA, especially when you’re right in the cusp of getting over the hump…..according to them anyway.

I have NO idea how you issue a public statement that says that you’re “close,” which CLEARLY implies that status quo isn’t good enough, then proceed to lose much more talent than they added.

This seems like some weirdo attempt at a half measure rebuild by someone who isn’t talented enough to build a winning roster.

Oh the point…..yeah this is how Stephen will run the team….same as you see now with possibly McClay taking the GM title.
