If games continue to sell out or still on America’s Game of the Week most of the year, it is a win for Jerry.

It is when the Cowboys are no longer featured on primetime and are on the first set of Sunday games is when JJ make changes.

They are about to get flexed out of some games in the next few weeks of the season. Other than the Thanksgiving Day game, the Cowboys are about to play a lot more noon kickoffs with broadcasters most have never heard of.

I’m thinking he will hire an old retread like Bill B or someone like it. He likes hiring a name when he’s backed into a corner like he was in 2003 when he hired Parcells. We need a a young, innovative, disciplined HC like Jimmy was but that’s not what Jerry likes.
Who is that guy, though? I don't think there's another Jimmy out there even if Jerry would hire him.

I'm still surprised people call Belichick a "retread." The possible goat is a retread? Is that anyone who isn't a first-timer?

To me, a Belichick is what we need if only because he'd have respect in the locker room and the front office. A young guy would probably be run over by Jerry, especially if he got off to a rough start.

I don't see Belichick here because of the salary, if nothing else. My hope is Vrabel -- maybe the closest thing but younger and cheaper. At least he'd toughen up the team, which is what we need.

I prefer drastically devastating seasons to 8-8 seasons.

They leave no doubt as to the deeply flawed and destructive nature of those in charge of football operations. They are publicly displayed with no possible attempt at denial.

With 8-8, you are sitting on a fence. perhaps you can mount a few weak arguments in defense...."a game or play away from a winning season....". An 8-8 team can even occasionally make it to the playoffs and trick fans into thinking they had a chance.

However, a nice fat, healthy, lopsided disaster like 5-12 will leave no doubt.
And I'll say it again, it's absolutely insane to prefer 8-8(9-8) seasons as a fan you prefer losing because you think it'll exact change??!!



that's ridiculous, I'm sorry this is some of the most ridiculous things I'm hearing in here that do you prefer 8-8 to 12-5?!



that's insane, winning divisions and getting to the playoffs is the two big steps you need before you can take the next steps… if you think somehow things are going to change because you're 8-9, no,



yeah, maybe some things are going to happen this year when you're 5-12 but to say you prefer 8 and 8 is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard anyone say in here that's hard to top, that is seriously hard to top!!



you guys have said some of the most annoying strange things in the last six months, I don't even know what to say you start to sound like casual fans….. you rather have losing seasons ,what so it inspires what ??



we've already been through that what exactly do you think the front office going to change we've already been through all that I prefer 12 and five and beating the eagles for the division and going to the playoffs 5 our last eight years… you damn right that's what I expect to be better.. you're not getting change from this front office because they're 8-9 or 12- 5 ,they do the same thing every offseason...


The only thing we can agree on is yes the silver lining for this season to be bad after 3-12 and five seasons, will get us a new coaching staff or at least it should and we'll see some change but the core players are staying, the way Jerry does business is staying, you think things are going to change and they won't..


the only thing will be different is we will have a better running back next year because this is more like 2015 and 2020 when there was changes needing this is not going back to the 80s!!!



I read that some of these stories are so ridiculous that this reminds them of the late 80s right before Jerry bought the team no this crisis of 2020 we're still going to come back next year with the same core group and a bunch of the injured players will be back and Jerry will be counting on that and the growth of the rookies from last year and the year before and he's going to do the same thing this season he's always done…..



so, I don't understand why you think knowing what you know about this front office you'd rather suffer through losing seasons then at least being one of the top teams in the league because yes, we are a top six team in the league the last three years and injuries got us, happenstance got us this year, but this isn't going to retool and reboot and blow this up it's not we have a core team...


If you haven't noticed we still have some top players in key positions and yes it needs to be filled in more we need better depth but the injury bug got big time on the defense and it's giving you a mirage as if this team really dropped off a Cliff and it really didn't...

IMHO, If we brought back the same exact team as last year this year and made no changes other than minor again like Jerry always does will easily win five more games without the injuries and with the rookies with another year of growth and a couple of our veterans are going to retire but there are guys that have been working their way in and you all think that somehow this is about to be blown up and we're starting over that's not happening...

So yes,


we'll have a new coaching staff I hope and we'll have a few new players and that's about it so I'd rather have 12 win seasons and at least enjoy beating the eagles for the division and being a division winner, over an 8 to 8 season any day of the week… I don't care how many times you ask me that is the most strange thing I've ever heard it's not here with this front office and this ownership ever going to change…





so I'll take the 12 wins instead, I'll take a lot of playoffs appearances even if there's early losses over being 8-9 you can be that team if you want, but that's not how Jerry does business it's not going to inspire him to do better he will do everything the same just like he won't put curtains up because he believes in a lot of it actually he's right it's just part of the stadium you do realize that football is played outside in a lot of games in rain in the sun in the wind and some of the turf is more slippery or muddy than others that every stadium has a quirk and he won't even put up curtains because he believes it's unique and that people have to game plan for it and you think he's going to change whether it's an 8 an 8 season or in this case it would be 8 and 9 or 12 and five season??



no he won't I don't know where you get that it's strange you think that...

You are reading it wrong my guy, this season shows zero competitiveness or fire - my point was at least all of those (3) 8-8 seasons was entertaining and kept viewership involved week in and week out.

This product on the field is abysmal. Not sure how you defend it, in the macro on MM tenure I agree but this is the same non-sense that got him canned in GB.
And I'm telling you you're wrong and most of the things I read I don't agree with I think you are Jerry Jones you're not young Jerry Jones you're senile Jerry Jones I remember those years and you can't tell me that the last three damn years before this year they were very competitive you can't be not competitive and have 312 win seasons and be the second seed with a home game I realized the playoff losses look bad but I'll take those any day and if you're upset over this year you might wanna look over the fact that we had eight key injuries on one side of all alone things didn't come together it's one bad year you're saying it looks abysmal yeah every team has some down years then we're having one now it's the same as 2015 it's the same as 2020 and next year they will come back at it with the same core team with a few changes and a new coaching staff and we're gonna do it all over again.

Those eight and eight seasons weren't more competitive you can't be more competitive than 312 and five seasons they won 36 games two division titles and went to the playoffs 5 out of the last eight years there's no way to compare that to an 8-8 season if you're talking about singly this year which is not even over yet that's ridiculous you haven't won down year you let me know when that becomes 3 down years and then we can talk about it..

I'm not missing the point I know exactly what you meant and my response is exactly the same you can't discount how good this team was just because they didn't meet your expectations in the playoffs we were very competitive you can't not be competitive and be a second seed and have a home playoff game last year I'm sorry didn't workout but you compare that you're saying it was better to watch an 8-8 is utterly insane that is why you and Jerry need to stop drinking the blue stuff and take vitamins for your memory because you're not remembering those years well enough...

I prefer a defensive minded tougher coach for sure everybody's talking about the lions offensive coordinator and guys like him know I be trying to lure a guy like spagnola from the chiefs or again like you said Vrabel would be a good choice because he's a younger Belichick and I've already said that five times but even if we ended up with Belichick at least I think the guy will have some respect in the locker room and his jaded personality he's not gonna take no **** from anyone.. We've had our run of offensive minded head coaches and I'm over it...

I’ve never seen Jerry Jones squirm like this. Cowboys Nation has made it clear that Jerry’s grace tank is bone dry.

Cowboys Fans and the local Dallas media are putting the screws to Jerry like he’s never seen, and he’s melting like the wicked witch of west. This whole Jones house of cards is being exposed and it’s his own fault. Every single part of it.

I don’t know if major changes are coming. History says it’s doubtful but I’ve never seen this level of uproar about Jerry among the masses.

The Emperor is naked. And everyone sees it. Keep the pressure up.
Bob it is a start for sure but(always a but) until people in masses quit showing up at his Stadium or do so with negative signs being waived about and bags over their domes little will change. Someone on here just posted about all the merch being sold in the stadium shops and how many people showed up to cheer on their favorite team. Jerry needs to own this solely! It is his from socks to jocks whistle to stop watch. Squirm Jerry squirm.

that's what they deserve
Even the NFL fans in other cities who hate the Cowboys and love to see us implode are bored by this garbage of a team. It’s not even entertaining.

My cousin who is an eagles fan said (for the first time ever!) that he actually felt sorry for the Cowboys. He’s in his 40s and said he had never seen a Cowboys team this bad.

I wish this was true but history will repeat itself — the dislusional Cowboy fans will once again buy into the over-hype after the 2025 draft and will write-off the 2024 season due to injuries. The irony is that these same fans will call JJ dilisional. Lastly, JJ has never held himself accountable and when pushed by reporters, he doubles down on his past decisions. So who is the bigger fool — JJ or these delusional fans???

Agreed. My friends who are Cowboy-haters told me they are disappointed that the Cowboys won’t have a chance to choke in playoffs again this year.

What's sad is watching footage on X showing Cowboys fans running into the stadium prior to the game and the pro shops at the stadium filled with cowboys fans buying merch. That's what really needs to change.

He's down to blatant lies and hiding behind prior success. He is strictly too expensive to support now.

It's sad Bob I swear. 40 freaking passing yards???? Wow lol lol, Rico had 10 carries for 50 yards, after the half he had 3 yards like what is going on, if we're just playing just to lose this bad, put the young guys out there and let's see what we have in them
