I believe the problem is Jerry Jones

Of course Jerry's part of the problem -- just as he was part of the success he endured early in his career.

He made the brilliant hire of Jimmy, just as he made the disastrous hire of Campo.

With that said, he made a seemingly ingenious hire of Parcells. He gave Parcells room to breathe and essentially entire control over the personnel.

Sure, you could blame Jerry for hiring what has been, to date, a failure in Parcells. All success and blame ultimately can be traced to the owner. However, it masks the bigger issues.

This isn't Campo at coach. Jerry deserved blame for ever giving him control of this organization. It was almost as if you felt bad blaming Campo, as it seemed like he never should have even been made a head coach. However, it's different with Parcells. Parcells is a big boy and capable of leading a franchise. It just hasn't worked out here.

I wouldn't call hiring Parcells an ingenious move. He was just doing something 3 other owners had done before him. Jones' non-football related business moves might be described that way, but hiring Parcells was just common sense. And whether you think Parcells has been a success or failure so far in Dallas, you have to be hoping Jones doesn't regret relinquishing some control.

hiring Tuna was more damage control and swallowing pride than ingenious.

he was humbled and wanted credibility to build a new stadium. the 'boys were the butt of every football joke and Tuna ended that.

ingenious would have been staying 100% out of football operations, not giving zimmer a huge extension before tuna arrived, letting him cut quincy/hutch, not signing henson, not tampering with TO last season, yadda, yadda, etc.

now that Tuna brought RESPECT back to dallas, he's trying to be a wildcat again and sticking his snout where it doesn't belong.

Allow me to add to your list.

Poor to average players.

Poor to average coaches
.

A big reason our players have been "poor to average" is cuz of the poor coaching (Zimmer).
