Damn, this is already shaping up to be a long offseason... I'm thinking about a self-induced coma and waking up during training camp :(

Jerry Jones: "We're A Long Way From The Super Bowl"

Jerry Jones weighs in on the upcoming offseason, coaching changes, the draft and more from the Senior Bowl in Mobile, AL.

Best thing I've seen him say in some time. The delusion of being "close" causes stagnation and minimal changes - just need to work harder.

Recognizing there are flaws is good. Now if only he knew how to fix them.

I thought we were as good as the Rams?
So, Jerry thinks we are a long way away from a SB with his wiz-kid experimental Head Coach and he thinks an experimental OC will help that? You just can't make this stuff up.

Listen to the interview. He was talking about the length of time until the next Super Bowl is played and how long it seems while going through everything it takes to get there.

Ok Jerry.....so we’re a long way away from being in a Super Bowl. So you’re keeping the same HC you hired over 8 years ago even though his 8 years as HC have NOT brought us any closer to competing for a SB?

Mr. Jones. Please put down the whiskey bottle. See the nice man in the white coat? He’s going to take you to a really special place where you get to continue playing GM and sorting jocks and socks and pretend you’re a football guy. Just get into that nice vehicle with the bed inside and relax. Those nice people at your new home are going to take really good care of you. Have a nice trip Jerry.

The crazy thing about being a Cowboys fan in the Jones era is we are supposed to somehow make sense out of their nonsense.

Now that I watched the video he isn't saying the team is a long ways away personnel wise. He's saying the calendar makes them a long ways away. It's Senior Bowl time. There's a lot that has to go on before you can compete for a Super Bowl again, as is the case every January when you're eliminated, is all he's saying.

Did anybody actually listen to the interview, or is it just easier and more fun to assume what he said from a headline? After all, headlines always accurately reflect the story and are never intended to mislead for the purpose of hooking readers, right?

He talked about how long it is until the next Suoer Bowl is played, and how long it seems while having to go through everything it takes to get there. He did not say the team lacks the ability to make it.
