I hope Jerry and Stephen sell the franchise to a more football intellectual and financially and astute buyer some day , but McCarthy clearly has done much of the failing as well particularly when it comes to player lack of performance discipline and significant amount of penalties under his head coaching tenure to date.
I think the penalties have gone down this year everywhere except special teams. I might be mistaken though. It was one culprit 2 years ago- Connor williams - and then last year I don't remember who it was but I do remember that 9 out of 10 special teams plays resulted in a penalty, like they do now.

This is so true. Many fans don't realize that most players underperform during their second contract. It's rare that you can look at a player's pre-second contract stats compared to post-contract stats and say he deserves every penny.
Yep people don’t get it. For a while I didn’t either. But if you look around the league everyone gets burned on that second deal. Patriots knew this and it’s why aside from qb or offensive line they would move on.

Jeff Saturday hit the nail on the head.

I can't say enough how much I love that fans, local media, and national media are placing the blame where it belongs for the 2024 season. Jerry and Stephen have scapegoated players and coaches for years, while never being but to the fire. This season, the cloak and dagger, three card Monte act isn't working.

Most fans agree.......even Parsons and Dak critics. They are a lot smarter than you see sometimes. Some/few just are divisive and argumenative and more times than not are trolling or baiting other posters for attention

Since you brought it up, Jerry may have kept Landry if Bum Bright didn't make firing Landry a condition of the purchase. We will never know, of course. We do know Bum hated Landry bc he felt Landry snubbed him at some kind of social function. He tried to get Tex Schamm to fire him, but he refused.

When Jerry bought the team, he had no designs on running the football operations. That's why he was willing to hand that job over to Jimmy. The egomaniacal loser that we know as "GM Jerry" didn't surface until after Jimmy turned the team around. Jerry made the error of thinking that the person who approves an idea is on equal intellectual footing as the person who thought it up. Jerry thought he was an equal partner in the building of those super bowl teams b/c he got to nod his head and write the checks. Its a tough thing for a man of jerry's immense ego to admit and he will likely take his pride to the grave.
That's a great post brother you are spot on.
And it is truly amazing a man that has accumulated that amount of money and been so successful in business finds it a total impossibility to build a competitive football team that can go deep into the playoffs.

He has all the blueprints in front of him just too stubborn to use them to give us fans some happiness with our team if he only had a conscience and understood that we gain no benefit by the amount of money he makes off the team.
All our enjoyment comes from good football to watch deep playoff competitions ending in a super bowl win.

I hope everyone considers all people are stubborn to some degree. Everyone has an ego. It takes an atypical ego to not do what they know is the best thing to do.

Most huge egos would have replace themselves as general manager at some point. Jerry Jones does not have a huge ego. He is not simply egotistical. His mindset is far worse. And there are 30 years of idiotic, uninterrupted stubbornness proving it.

If I could add as far as us fans are concerned he just has no conscience

We're going to replace the Young & The Restless soon, for daytime drama.
