We wouldn't have to forgive him.

Within a month that GM would have strangled Jerry Jones.

Hiring a GM should mean that Jerry no longer makes any football-related decisions.

He doesn't hire coaches. He doesn't participate in the draft. He doesn't manage the salary cap. To the media, he no longer represents the Cowboy's position on any football related subject.

Can you see Jerry giving all that up to another individual? Completely?

No, this would end up a homicide.

If Jerry soon before he passed decided he wanted to do the right thing and hire a real NFL GM that could be fired if he didn’t produce

A ”real GM“ in my book is several things:
  • First and foremost, they do whatever it takes to win and get results in the playoffs.
  • They plan clearly, knowing exactly what kind of team they are building and how to make it work within the cap.
  • They work hard, study film, scout players and stay focused at all times on their job. It’s a full time 365/24/7 job, not part-time.
  • They support their head coach by letting him be the face of the team’s communication with players and the media.
  • They are accountable for results and hold others accountable.
  • They always put the team and its success ahead of their personal ego.
Jerry Jones does not fit the above criteria. He is a showman and salesman, not a GM. He’s good at business, marketing and sales but he is a lousy GM who is killing his team with his arrogance and ego.

Put it even simpler: If Jerry Jones wanted to win more than anything else, he would have stopped this charade decades ago. He obviously does not want to win badly enough. Which disqualifies him as a GM.
