Call us, we wont call you.

LOL.

Let's hear it Jerry defenders, tell us how this is perfectly normal.

"Don't need to upgrade our roster."

Jerry Jones does not care about winning or if he does he only wants to do it his way. And would rather the Cowboys fail than for them to win a Super Bowl by him changing his approach and mindset to building this team.

Basically saying he wants other teams who are shopping players to come to the cowboys with opportunities-not the other way around, which basically every team in the league wants to happen and does regularly happen with teams who are having fire sales.

I don’t take anything jerry says too seriously at all, big problem I see here is people do. He could say they’ll be very active and then no trades happen and vice versa. Whatever Jerry says positive, negative, or indifferent it really doesn’t matter because he says one thing publicly and does the other behind the scenes often.

When people realize this they’ll be better off imo

I am pretty sure a certain GM of a certain team leading our division wouldn't wait for people to call him to try to improve the club.

There is little doubt Jerry is not being proactive here.

I don’t take this in a negative way. Teams often call other teams … by this you don’t get taken to the woodshed as they are more desperate by calling you. It’s smart business.

With that being said, with our current roster, I still see this team as the 3rd/4th best team in the NFC. Lions and 49er had some stinkers and the Eagles are the Eagles.

There’s this supermodel I’ve been wanting to go out with, but SHES gonna have to call ME.

I ain’t picking up the phone. No way. I like where I’m at.

 

[Majic]

This is the right approach from Jerry. We do not want to give up our R1-3 draft picks. We would be paying top dollar if we go asking. We are not one player away.

Distinct advantages of the unique structure, bro. It's the envy of the league.

 

[Doomsday]

I don't know about you guys but I am sick of the "we like our guys" motto.

So what, you still have holes, do something to try to upgrade this roster.

Philly has a better roster than the Cowboys and they still upgrade. Niners last year with a better roster went out and got better adding CMC. But yet Jerry says he is satisfied with the current roster.

 

[Xeven]

I do not think this team can defeat healthy Eagles or Healthy Niners all year long. Hope I am wrong.

My preference would be that he doesn't speak at all. Both him and his idiot son. It does nothing to advance the football interests of the Dallas Cowboys.

Jerry doesn't care about winning. So this shouldn't surprise anyone.

He even admits his team isn't on the same level as Philthy or SF yet still won't lift a finger to improve the roster. F this dude....

No owner is going to call Jerry Jones for any offers because Jerry is too prideful and only tries to run things his way. Where as GMs like Howie can admit that his team has a weakness which needs to be addressed and he'll do whatever it takes to fix it.

That would require Jerry giving a damn about something other than his bank account.
