Jimmy Johnson back in the fold? (Update Post 106)

[ShiningStar]

we are so desperate as a franchise, some see this as the next coming.

Guys, its not going to do anything. But some of you guys have that green that Jerry likes and he ll get it.

Now that Jimmy told everyone he's advising Jerry...he's back out of the fold.

Sad to say, your line of reasoning actually makes some sense.

Jimmy: Thank you for the opportunity. I'd be glad to help as much as I can.

Jerry: So let's have it. What do you see? What do we need to do to take the next step?

Jimmy: Well you need to hire a real GM and get you and your son out of it.

...

...

Jimmy: Hello? ..... Jerry?....You still there?

LOL!! I couldn't have said it any better!

I think Jimmy's just kidding

A Big bag of Nothing! Nothing to see here guys/gals!

^ This. Jimmy Johnson was only joking when his Ring of Honor induction was mentioned on The Joe Rose Show. Members can listen to what Johnson said in context by clicking on the link below (audio is already set to start at the 8:20 mark/related comment lasts for less than one minute):

I forgot Bill Parcells' advice when I first read the story, "Don't get sucked."

It was a nice mini-dream while it lasted though.

"Since the Ring of Honor, I am on his [Jerry Jones'] advisory board now," Johnson said to Joe Rose on WQAM 560 AM in Miami. "We were talking on the phone for about an hour after his Green Bay loss, and he was talking about what all he needed to do because he had big decisions on Mike McCarthy and Dan Quinn and Dak Prescott. Everything is hunky dory now. I am back in the fold with the Cowboys."

Will jerry listen is the question

 

[Coogiguy03]

[Coogiguy03]

Only if Jerry listens. Don't hold your breath on that.

Didn't seem to be joking about talking with Jerry after the playoff loss. Being on his advisory board may have been the joke but he did in fact speak with Jerry on the state of the team.

Please bring us some good news this week!

I don't know what to make of this. I like that Jerry is opening his world to new things, like listening to Jimmy. But I don't know how close to the game and players Jimmy has been.

I am curious though. What did Jimmy tell Jerry about this team. Was it Jimmy who told him to hire Zimmer? Is that Jimmy's way of getting Jerry to fix the discipline on this team?

People keep blaming Dak, and rightfully so, but the entire team has no fight in them. If you're old enough to remember that '89 Cowboys team, they lost a lot of games, but not from a lack of trying. That 1991 team went into Washington and beat an 11-0 team. They had fire. This team doesn't. The second they get punched they fold. Something has to change. This team doesn't play at a high intensity level. I don't know how to fix that.

That is true Johnson was not joking about his phone call with Jones but he made a sarcastic joke about the phone call's importance. There is no doubt of his comment's importance based on the actual comment's context.

Bold> This has been a continual problem for Cowboys teams over the past three decades. I call it lack of grit, something they have repeatedly demonstrated during crucial moments in games.

It happened during the Romo years as well. One of biggest examples was the 44-6 beatdown to Philadelphia in 2008. Just laid down.

Trends are sometimes hard to define. This franchise has seen players come-and-go. Coaches hired and fired. Scouts and lower front office executives shuffled and reset. Yet it continues.

I've reported DallasEast for misinformation.

Good luck with that, Daniel Day-Lewis.

I don't think it really matters whether this entire story has all the details,

the fact is if they're talking in any way behind the scenes about football and the Dallas Cowboys even if it's like 2 dudes sitting at a bar some old friends spit balling some ideas on what could have gone wrong and what can get fixed between these two, I'm all for it...

he's not going to be working for the Dallas Cowboys I don't care what people took from that article but if he's consulting in any way or advising that's always a positive someone in Jerry's ear from the outside especially that hey here's the media and all the blowback and the negativity that's coming since that loss any input from Jimmy Johnson to Jerry Jones is a good thing...​

Jerry has always had an advisory role person, except in the past it was Larry Lacewell…..

Also Jason Garrett’s father, Jim, right alongside Lacewell…

That’s right….how could I forget Jim. Man those were the days…..

Jim Garrett’s pre-draft scouting report on Drew Henson and Chad Hutchinson:

1. Blonde hair
2. Blue eyes
3. Looks like Troy Aikman
