If Jerry really wants to fix this, he'd have to give up a lot of control

Remember what he said about BP? How he hated he gave up so much control to him? Then began to undermine him with the TO thing?
He will NEVER give up that much control again and getting a good enough HC to win with that albatross hanging on his neck is not going to happen
They will pry the GM position from Jerry Jones cold dead hands

There is quite simply no other way. If he can't see that at this point, then we will just have to wait, as some have maintained, until he is gone.
McClay and the scouts are picking the players. The coach is coaching the players. The players are on the field playing the games. What exactly is Jerry doing that is creating this mess?

Jerry hires the coaches, and intervenes in ways that the players know the coach isn't really in charge. Get in good with Jerry and you can ignore the coach.

Yep not good. That means no accountability with the players

Dude, how you are so unaware of how a business is structured?

I'll make it plain and simple: The GM is responsible for hiring coaches and acquiring players.

Honestly, how do you not know this?

They just like blaming Jerry. If you want to blame him for anything blame him fir drafting good players with no backbone. That's his fault. All the other stuff is crap

Only way that would work is if the power leapfrogs Stephen and goes entirely to McClain. Sole GM power. None of this control by committee crap with Spaulding and company.

How oldis this board? I could swear that for the past 20+ years, fans come here and talk about Jerry relinquishing duties and letting pros do their job, Jerry selling the team, Jerry not wasting cap space on players who don't deserve it, Jerry this, Jerry that.

What changed? Let it go people. It's not gonna change. And here is my annual announcement to you fellow fans:

JERRY WILL NEVER WIN A SB AGAIN.

There you have it. The Dallas Cowboys you grew watching and adoring are long dead. We have Jerry Cowboys now.

:cool:

Do you think maybe that's why I proclaimed that if him giving up control is the only way, and if he doesn't it won't change?

I mean, did you read the OP?

Reading is your friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me try again: The GM's job is to take care of all that other crap.

Man, this is so simple, how do you keep missing it?

If you think Jerry is responsible for acquiring players you are the unaware and clueless one. He may not have the GM title but acquiring players has been McClay’s sole responsibility for years now.

Dude, stop. That is what the GM does. Where do you work, McDonalds? The GM is responsible, that's what his job is. Jerry is responsible for hiring McClay. I mean, you are having trouble w/ the simplest of concepts.
