The Giants did it. Cost Dallas huge chunk of change and a couple of players they're not able to sign because of it.
You bet your *** the Giants knew what they were doing. And on a very vague accusation that the league allowed.
exactly, the other owners came out against jerry and the skins, and got away with it: other players have related to this things jerry does,
im not saying Jerry isn't a good GM, jerry is a good general manager to a degree. What jerry has to learn is this:
1st, it cost jerry 4 superbowls in a row, when jerry brought in a saudia Arabia prince into the lockerroom, when the head coach jimmy Johnson is having a players meeting after a game, that's where the blow up between jerry and jimmy started. True, like jerry said, he pays the checks, but jerry has to realize and be honest. What was more important, to get along with a top head coach, like jimmy Johnson, that the cowboys could have been the first team ever to win 3 superbowls, maybe 4 in a row if jimmy stayed, and the ego of jerry wasn't so huge. It takes a big man to realize that, and be humble, for the good of the team.
So, Jerry did it his way, got very lucky in 95, but jerry did go get deion sanders who helped the cowboys get to the superbowl in 95, but the team was basically built with what jimmy Johnson had built, with jerry approval and spending the money to get those players. Then, we saw the disfunction after that, with losing years, then campo years, jerry's puppet. The bad drafts by jerry and larry lacewell.
Then bill parcells had to be signed, jerry admitted it when he was drunk, bankers were on his rear end, he coudnt get the money or approval without a top headcoach in place, then jerry forced T O on parcells, we all know that.
Then medicore years again, and has been for 18 years now. When players see jerry on practice field, that undermines the coaching staff. Not sure if you all remember but callihan was livid, when some other playcalling was issued in a game.
Tell me what gm tells a top head coach, you need to do this, or that, you need to get these players to step up telling the media, have you every seen ozie newsome doing that, or gm for giants when they won their 2 superbowls? Have you seen craft telling belichek what players to sign, or how to run the team?
That's what is needed to point out to jerry jones, show me another gm./owner that does this and has been successful? How would you jerry jones like it, if you were head coach, and the gm/owner was telling you what to do, letting players go to him, instead of you the head coach? This is what needs pointed out to jerry. If you look at a lot of the players that play for the cowboys the past 7 years, with most of them has been about the money, not championships, but the money, to get paid. They always say, the players reflect the head coach personality. In this case, the real head coach is Jerry Jones, not Jason garrett or wade, or parcells, but jerry jones.
You cant tell me, that if media gets a bunch of guys, that have played for the cowboys, like crayton, lisemore, spears, Ratliff, and tell their story of how things were really run, and how jerry wouldn't let the coaches coach, but undermine them, you cant tell me, that this will blow up in jerry face, a lot of fans are upset now. And yes to a reply that a fan said jerry makes aton of money, yes he does, but at same time, do you know how much that note each month is that jerry has to pay for jerrys world? Why do you think jerry finally got someone to buy the rights to the name of the stadium, more money, to offset what he is losing. Jerry now has to pay romo like 23 million this year, plus whatever ware is going to get, carr to. And yes, I have heard, the last 2-3 years,, the cowboys have lost 20 % or more in sales, because fans are getting upset and sick of ways things are run. Think about this, the cowboys had a chance to possibly get norv turner, but didn't, because first you had to buy out norv's contract with browns, and then jerry would have to pay off Callahan. Did you see jerry fire any coaches this year, no, think about that for a minute, let that sink in, would cost more money to do that. Jerry is already what 23 million over the cap. Think about that, now he has to restructure some more contracts, give bonuses upfront to create cap room, more money costing him, think about that.
