Let's get real on the Jerry is the blame issue

[CCBoy]

To the point, the complaint on Jerry is simply this:

'The Cowboys have several problems on this year’s team, several holes. But for me, it starts at the top and if you’re looking to point fingers you have to start with owner/general manager Jerry Jones. He pulls the strings and makes all the major decisions for the Cowboys, so he’s the one that ultimately has to take the blame for all the holes and the team’s severe lack of depth.'

That isn't hard nor does it require any legitimate reasoning to arrive at just that point.

But when that is jumped for and is the point of termination, well, it just doesn't really address the problem or actually analyzing what is done. Where it came from. And even more important, where is the direction of resolutions.

Let's set aside the emotional side of staying merely in tune with a burn barrel mentality.

Let's put handles on what is stated above, a vague problem...and follow that trail a little, instead of a bottle of Ripple and insult.

Here you go:

First job, is to get a handle on what the reoccuring of frustrations involves.

The task now requires to get a functional picture that is not just a mountain of statistics or assumptions.

Here, let's take an observation. That is the most talented and athletic squads do not always win the Super Bowl.

Woa nellie, did that just say that because you have the most talented team in the NFL that you may not even make it to the Super Bowl? Yep, it sure did...now, how come?

That privilege belongs to the team that has things rolling at the right time. And often, the one with the most luck.

But more specificly, the teams with the best health are the ones standing tall at the end of the season.

That is why the loss of Sean Lee is such a troubling thought. It could be pointing to what could be coming later in the season. But here, only a concern at this point.

The December swoon that we have all become accustomed to is almost never caused by poor chemistry or lack of heart. One could almost stop listening to the DMN right now on issues.

Rather it's a matter of poor depth and why the Jerry name calling is actually not understanding where and why the process is where it is right now.

When injuries pile up over the course of a season - snowballing by the end of the season - the Cowboys in the past haven't had the strength of depth to constantly overcome the injuries.

It is blatantly true that if depth had been successful, back when the likes of Jason Williams or Stephen Hodge were being added to the roster and succeeded, or even all the way back to Bobby Carpenter and Kevin Burnett, that this past off season's job would have changed. The team had forged direction with the selection of Sean Lee, and then Bruce Carter. The need for a transition from Bradie James and Keith Brookings had already been identified, and a transition put in place. That injury affected the picture still, last spring, with Carter needing some seasoning and some additional learning experience. Dan Connor was signed in free agency to solidify the element of a valid starter and depth with both Lee and Carter positioned in the section. But having to pay for a veteran in free agency, always strikes at a balance of a developing and youthful depth and league level talents.

This brings in the picture of directions now...as the teams that generally finish the year strongest are the teams that add their depth in April. They have young talent that can emerge and help them improve over the course of the season. Every team has to get by a few devastating injuries, because the nature of the NFL and the beast.

The thing here, is not to go blaming Jerry because some of the stars are disappearing and there is doubt as to what will come next. That happens to all teams, not just the Dallas Cowboys.

But it also is a hard lesson that the Cowboys, and yea, Jerry Jones has learned over the last few years. But a firm direction has already been given the man at the helm of the vessel. All intended improvements to that ship had to be stretched over a three year development time. The current picture in the offensive line, was limited last off season, due to the previous contract/cap space being swallowed and the NFL targeting Washington and Dallas as whipping boys and levying a loss of Cap.

But if one is scrutinizing instead of antagonizing, he could also see that this holds closer to the course of paying veteran dollars to quality players brought up in your team's Aprils. Nicks instead of Burnadeau and Livings would have put the team farther behind in the youth and talent aspects concerned with the fullness of depth. And if one had been watching this past week, that same Nicks just went on that demon, the IR. Where would that put Dallas now, needing to resign Anthony Spencer and a new contract for Church.

But the desparaging part is in the past, and that dealt with swings and misses. Even if the norm of injury is reappearing, the direction issues are clearing. As to frustrations in wins and losses, that comes with the ground of a transitioning team as well. Sometimes younger players just have to learn to fill the shoes of professionals and earn the merit of their craft.

This is when some perspective by a fan becomes a useful tool.

I'm sure we are all Dallas Cowboys fans. But when the process is at least clarified, we can follow better and with more patience as well...

I don't want to hear no excuses.

I must have missed something. I expected this to be a first rate Jerry bashing.

 

[burmafrd]

poor talent aquisition

simple as that


why teams like Green Bay and others can keep on going and we cannot

Because they are better at identifying and keeping talent

And that is on the GM

 

[Ren]

I'm sick of Jerry throwing all these picks, fumbling, missing his block, running the wrong routes, dropping passes and screwing up on special teams

He assembled the team, he is who should be held accountable. Any other GM would have been relieved of their duties by now based on performance alone.

You are all a lot of help ...Thanks you Verrry much

Placing all grandstand show aside, I'll bet you a three litre coke right here and now, that the Cowboys will win against Atlanta this Sunday.

(and it WON'T boil down to Jerry being a problem of any sort)

 

[Gameover]

Jerry's problem starts at quarterback.

Jerry has done a fine job of adding talent.

Jerry takes too much heat because of Romo's failures.

The Cowboys have holes(safety,interior line), but none that should've prevented them from winning 11 or 12 ballgames.

is it possible to OD on Kool Aid?

I finally agree. Let's take the team away from Jerry.

Who should we give it to next?
