Is Jerry still on the list for the HOF as a contributor.
Does this draft class solidify his getting voted it.

Yes contributor vs. GM and some / many will want to credit Will McClay and others.
But if you criticize him you also should praise him. I said should, and not must, as some won't give credit where credit is due regardless.

So if the season plays out as it has been so far, and we say, get to at least the NFCCG, does this get Jerry in.
I'm not trying to be a jerk but if Jerry was truly in control of drafting, we would have chosen Johnny football as a QB and who knows who else. Who knows where we would be today with that? If you want to give him HOF cred I suppose he would get it for not doing what he wanted to do and instead acting on the decisions of those around him. I'll give him that.

But to answer the question ... Jerry is a finalist. Not all get in on their first nomination. His fine earlier in the season for a record number of suspended players didn't help his cause. .

Record number?

If Jerry getting into the HOF helped Jimmy get in or get in the ROH than I'm all for it. Otherwise I don't really care.

I've seen that list of suspended players but it doesn't say if those players were suspended at the same time for the number of games on those teams which was the record.

Both their egos got in the way of something that could have been bigger.
Jerry and Jimmy had egos too big even for the state of TEXAS !!! If they went to a wedding they both wanted to be the bride, and if they went to a funeral they both wanted to be the corpse.

You'd think Jerry would have made a better effort to kiss the butt of his head coach who just won Back to Back World Championships ?

You think Jimmy would have not been an arse and accepted the toast and invited Jerry to sit for the man who hire Jimmy and gave him the freedom to become the coach he did.
It works both ways.
Don't let your hatred see the big picture.

Please provide another example where an owner prematurely ran off his Super Bowl winning coach months afterwards.

I understand Jimmy but I see Jerry as the bigger culprit.
