For any of you hoping for an active offseason.
15:25 mark of the video. Jerry is asked after watching the Rams and Eagles approach to the Super Bowl what is the Cowboys plan. He says he knows how to do what those teams have done but if you miss it's a long way back. He's reluctant to go all in for a year. He thinks long term.



-

As an added bonus you can go back to the 13:25 mark and hear how they didn't mismanage the WR position by trading Cooper for nothing. It was relying too much on Jalen Tolbert that was the mistake. How do you address it this year? "We need Tolbert to come on as a young player".

And lastly back to 17:35 you can hear Jerry's sales pitch to you for 2023 when asked how he gets fans excited for next year.

"Dwell on the fact that we have some of the best personnel in the NFL. Dwell on the fact that you have Dak. Focus on that."

-

And one more gem right after. The yearly man in the mirror talk.

"There's been a lot of change here over the last 25 years the same way there would have been had you changed GMs and Owners. I have to change in my mirror. I want to emphasize that."

I mean it should surprise no one but we are doomed.

This team is never getting over the hump with Jerry and Stephen. They just aren't.

By the way, there isn't a bigger bag of BS being shoveled than that last comment. He really is a smug ***.

I take it back, this is the biggest pile of BS in that interview.

The Eagles won a SB in 2017 and did so loading up on vets, etc. They followed that up by giving a huge contract to Wentz and it didn't work out. Now according to Jerry, the smartest GM in football, when Wentz failed and all those vets from the 2017 Eagles team started weighing the team down and they had to tear it apart, it should have been a "long way back".

And yet, here are the Eagles back in the SB five years later (and they have two first round picks to boot). I wish people who interview Jerry would call his *** out when he pushes total lies and BS like this.

I can't tell if he's stupid or just a liar.

Pick your spots with risk taking?

LOL. When, Jerry, in the last half dozen years when you had pretty good teams did you take the calculated risk?

Seriously, the media needs to start calling him out on this BS.

Going all in would be mega-mega-mega stooooopid given current situ. I know lots of you are thinking with your hearts, but it makes zero sense.

Dak isn't an elite qb. Zeke is dead. Tyron Smith near the end end.

Truthfully a 1-year reset would be far better if you want a championship in the next few years. Clear the books, go 3-14 and draft a QB. The disappointment is that Jerry does just enough to keep things competitive and interesting, but only half measures. 1-year-rebuild is in order.
