Jerry's message to team: We got to win. This is the Dallas Cowboys

[kskboys]

Those are the team leaders who spoke up? Well, there’s your problem right there.

Hey, leave 'em alone, they're busy w// Twitter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Creeper]

First problem, Jerry is addressing the team. These speeches are for coaches to make before the game. After the game the only thing Jerry should say is, "you can pick up you paychecks at the front desk today. For some of you it will be your last one from me."

 

[JustChip]

Speaking of Turpin….why the hell you keep bringing the ball out Moron?!?

I didn’t have a problem with that. He didn’t start doing that until it was apparent they were in trouble. The opportunity for him to create something offset the change of starting field position from the 25 to the 15.

 

[Blast From The Past]

Jerry should have given them that message before the game.

no the head coach should have

 

[Darkhound]

This is HIS Dallss CLOWN boys

 

[zerofill]

Going on 30 years of losing in the playoffs. Why now?

My grandson is 8 months old. I am sure his kids will see Dallas in a Super Bowl some day.

Which is what is so maddening. It almost fell perfect for them and they still blew it.

It's the worst loss since at least the 2007 divisional round.

07 Divisional round was admittedly disappointing but we lost by 4 to the eventual Champs.

Yesterday we got boat raced by the last team in, who is going to lose by at least 2 scores next week at SF.

It's not even worth mentioning the Jones family. When Jerry dies, its Stephens show. When Stephen dies, its his kids show. When they die, it's their kids show. We know they're the issue but that's never going to change they will always be at the helm for as long as any of us are alive

Nah....at some point somebody sellin. It happens in every family.

Feel the same to me too. Agree with @Risen Star

It's the fact that the games fell perfect. Home field, bye weeks, opponents, etc.. and the culmination of a rebuild.

07 was Parcells project peaking, this was Coach Mac's project peaking.

Folks are tired of hearing about Bill Belichick, but, he is the only HC candidate that can tell Jerry: "If you are serious about getting back to winning championships, you have to be willing to do whatever it takes to do so. Jerry, are you willing to do so? Are you willing to cut off you and Stephen's availability to the media? Are you willing to say less and do more behind the scenes? Are you willing to let Will McClay, the scouts and me procure talent not just in the draft, but in free agency and the draft as well? Are you willing to trust in the HC to set the tone of the organization? Set the tone in the media and the locker room? Can the HC decide who he wants to be on his team from top to bottom of the roster? Will contracts dictate who the HC can bench or fine or release? Will you close the back channel and upfront channels of communication between star players and ownership/the EVP/the GM, which can undermine the HC's authority and voice in the locker room? Will you allow the HC to decide who is or isn't on his coaching staff? If not, you aren't willing to do whatever it takes to win a Super Bowl again then this job isn't for me."

This is what he needs to hear, but no current HC, but the Hoodie, has the cache to even voice these sentiments to a billionaire, HOF owner of a once proud, highest valued franchise in the world.

Aw oh Jerry is angry, sit in the corner and shake in fear while he does absolutely nothing.

They all need a hypnotist

Losing is a disease, as contagious as syphilis...

 

[bewp7]

jerry does know the cowboys are most know for being loser and choker right

he does know it isnt 1996 right

he does under stand that under him and stephen the cowboys are a giant punch line

i hope he understand this because idk what he mean when he say we are the dallas cowboys because they did what every one expect them to do and that is not show up and lose in the playoff

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Bill Belicheck isn't going to come here to change anything. He will join cash his checks and move on when the micromanagement gets too much. Just like Parcells.

 

[Manster_Mash]

No, we don't have to win. We haven't won in 28 years. And new stadium, full stadium, star players, jerseys sold, national game nearly every week, most valuable sports franchise, unanimous top billing every Monday morning sports show, and yacht waiting at the dock. Players extended with top contracts despite never winning anything of significance and embarrassed in every big moment.


Why do we have to win? Why do they have to win?

 

[GMO415]

The Cowboys had open locker room and a team meeting today. Jourdan Lewis, KaVontae Turpin and T.J. Bass spoke with reporters.

Jerry Jones addressed the team.

His message, according to Lewis: “We got to win. This is the Dallas Cowboys, we had everything to win. We can’t let this feeling keep going on.”

And the check is in the mail....yadda yadda

 

[loublue22]

This is a big part of the problem. Jerry thinks Dallas is special and therefore you don't have to do the same things other organizations do. He thinks things should just fall into place because we "deserve" it.

He will continue pay JAGs because we drafted them. He will continue to ignore innovative young coaches for retread "established" guys. He would never hire someone like LaFleur or McVay. The list of nonsense goes on and on.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

So Jerry thinks he set the table and the players/coaches failed him.

Pretty much sums it up. The individual talent is there. I'd definitely say the players and coaches failed.
