Cowboys owner and GM Jerry Jones was making his appearance on 105.3 The Fan this morning and talked about some issues regarding his team and Cowboys Stadium after the 33-31 loss to the New York Giants.
On the loss - You'd have love to have won the opening game in that stadium but we kind of created that dynamic by opening the stadium in the second game of the season. Normally, apart from it being a home game, you don't get that down from a game like we played Sunday. We have all the confidence in the world in Tony Romo, so let's use this, the whatever, the frustration as a team, go out, work that much harder this weekend get better. This will be a tough game against the Carolina Panthers. They haven't won.
On making fans have confidence in Tony Romo - You'd like for him not to have a day like that, but when everybody is pointing fingers, when it didn't go good you want someone to walk into that huddle in the next snap at practice, the next snap in the ball game and walk out there cutting and shooting and playing as if they just won the Super Bowl. That's a great quarterback. It certainly a physical position and you've got to have the physical skills but at the end of the day it's got to be someone with a tough skin that's got a high level of will power ... The greatest of them all had many days as rough to the position as Tony had Sunday.
On the feelings after the loss - The thing is this: I always know and I felt it yesterday just like our fans do, I had a tough time yesterday in some areas not being overly critical because I was mad. I wasn't mad at any team member or any coach. I just had that feeling in me. I knew where my attitude yesterday. I knew just as far as not only our team but issues with the stadium, anything with the stadium were going to be accentuated maybe negatively rather than positively because of the outcome of that game ... That goes with it. That's why when you win and have a big win or a big season you want to relish it so much because most of the time in sports that's not the case. You've got rough times most of the times in sports.
On not talking after the game because he was upset -I think that I would have to say yes. It's really not a habit of mine in hard loss or hard times ... But I was there. I walked out of the dressing room and came down. Yes, I had the same frustration that was there. And frankly we had so many things speak for themselves, including the loss, but we had so many things speak for themselves - the stadium, the crowd, the excitement of the crowd, the capacity that was there ... that frankly I ought to do it more and shut up.
Yes. Very good.cowboyjoe;2961603 said:I ought to do it more and shut up.

...it's time to close the circus, shut up and play football already...
Alexander;2961665 said:No question about it. We have a "great" QB. Oodles and oodles of talent. The roster is just stacked to the point that we even go into two consecutive drafts believing that we won't get a starter out of it anyways.
That is a talent evaluation issue. Someone notify the GM.
aikemirv;2961732 said:I don't believe it is a talent evaluation issue at all.
I believe it is a coaching issue plain and simple.
We dominated a team on the ground 250 yards to 100.
We stopped the #1 rushing team in the NFL last year I believe to about 100 yards.
We could not put it all together though - I see that as coaching not talent.
I see it as getting the team ready to play and mentally tough. I see it as not playing the right defenses at the end of the half and the game.
Chocolate Lab;2961402 said:Talking about his stadium... Imagine that.
Oh, and the stadium is for the region, not one person. Yes I'm buying that.
That's why you haven't heard from Jerry yet. He's been counting his money.
They say some fan texted in that Jerry is the greatest and they love how he's as frustrated as we are. I'm far from a hardcore Jerry hater, but how can people continue to see that he's the one who puts all this together? He has a pretty good gig going.
And BTW, hate to say it again... But why is the Jerry show conducted by these DJ clowns like Jagger. I wish the Ticket still had the team.
(Edit, of course I meant to say how can people continue to *not* see that Jerry is the one who puts this all together.)
kramskoi;2961660 said:...this entire organization has an inflated opinion of itself and i don't see that changing under the Phillips/Jones duet...call Romo great when he actually delivers what fans have been waiting for after 13 years...
...it's like Facenda said after Dallas beat Denver in the superbowl...the broncos were out there thinking about winning while the cowboys were thinking about football...
...all the talk last year of postseason, playoffs and superbowls ended in the hideous, gutless embarrassment at the Linc...three straight years of season ending collapses...

rcaldw;2961504 said:He needs to go into his bathroom and have that tirade in front of the mirror. The one guy who deserves to be fired for the last 13 years is the one guy who is the constant at the GM position and that is the guy throwing the fit. Scream at yourself Jerry. YOU, not as an owner, but as THE HEAD FOOTBALL GUY, are the guy who is UNACCEPTABLE. Fire yourself.
cowboyed;2961809 said:When it comes to Jerry he can't win for losing with you. Last week we won you were mum. We lose and you are all over Jerry. I know it was an important game, especially at home in the new stadium but I will reserve the bashing until the end of the season as we are only 2 games into the schedule.
If Jerry got vocal publically you would be all over it how he is interfering. When he is quiet and not airing his frustration and promising heads will roll you basically label him indifferent and too obsessed with the business side while Valley Ranch is burning.
The reality is none of us including you know what is going on behind the scenes to what degree Jerry is constructively reacting to this bitter, unacceptable loss. The truth is you keep supporting Wade, and his vaunted capabilities and defense are just about dead last when ranked 30th in all major defensive categories yards allowed, sacks, turnovers.
Despite our foibles we lost to the Giants by just 2 points, a team picked by many to go back to the Superbowl. We did some good things in that game too and I will credit Wade accordingly and that is run defense and our special teams were solid. Isn't Jerry responsible for the good parts as well?
I agree Jerry is responsible as GM and owner, but let's keep it proportion and not push anyone over the ledge be it Jerry, Wade, Tony, Garrett etc.. this early in the season or on a game to game basis.

Chocolate Lab;2961848 said:I did hate the stadium overhype, and I'm not the only one. So please don't act like I'm some crazed Jerry hater. Look up a guy named Bach -- I think he's the one you're looking for.

A lot of us are in that boat.
