Same ole story regurgitated for the billionth time.
Next time the sun will disappear and then Jerry will be told by Stephen to just buy out the battery market for flashlights. And people will hate their football team as a reason for living.

Hire this coach! Sign this free agent! Draft this guy! It's not about a guy here or there with this team, it starts at the top. It's a dysfunctional organization.

Jerry and Stephen Jones are unique. No other NFL team has the owner as GM and his son as Director of Player Personnel. This has been the arrangement in Dallas for 28 years. They have won four wild card games. That's it. That's all they have to show for it. They've fired more head coaches than playoff wins in that time.

Take a good hard look. These are the masterminds you're counting on after 28 years of trying. If you weren't a Cowboys fan, you'd laugh at them. They're a joke.

They aren't going to suddenly figure it out, they aren't going to quit while the money still rolls in, so accept 12-5. It's as good as it is going to get. Enjoy.

I think 80% of us get it . Everybody goes crazy when somebody comes available a name that’s all they hear is a name. They don’t understand it. Still they organization.

But they laughed at everyone and said " we're football people, you're just fans"
Wait, I'll get a raincoat on with that kind of splattering...there are different kind of fans. Some prefer to not discuss when object is just to complain and blame. Not discussing.

Concept here, gloves aren't needed to talk about methods of function...blame on results only attached to failure is wrong from the start.

I think that Jerry would sell both of his kidneys for one more championship. I'm not entirely certain that Stephen cares at all.
Only if he gets full credit. He doesn't care about winning, he only cares about getting credit for it.

Yes, this is hard to understand and beyond odd.

I don’t think that is the case… don’t buy into his false expectations.
He is the consummate snake oil salesman, keeping the media and fans interest all the time.

An owner with final say is not new.

A owner's child in an executive position is not new.

An executive in charge of the scouts, in constant communication with the coaching staff, and under an owner who is final say is nothing new.

McClay is not called general manager and the owner is but that is really window dressing. Lurie, the Maras, Snyder before he got canned, and many other clubs have the same arrangement presented above but without the window dressing.

I also see very few discussions of how they lead to this insurmountable obstacle. The 500 lbs Gorrilla in the room is that Jerry has won multiple Super Bowls. The already specious reasoning becomes blatantly absurd.

Jerry has his problems but he contributes as well. He is not going anywhere so I see no point to whining about it much less to start doomcasting because of it.
Then quit whining.

The 15 ton dinosaur in the room sitting on the gorilla is that Jerry hasn't won squat in nigh on 30 years and has proven beyond any doubt whatsoever that he not only has no comprehension of what makes a super bowl contender, but refuses to put in the work to get there.

Only one NFL team that I can think of has fired "more than 2 SB winning coaches".

That would be your Dallas Cowboys. Landry, Johnson, Switzer. Although you could argue that both Johnson and Switzer technically resigned, but since both were still under contract, they would have had to retire or be fired.
Raiders, maybe? They just fired Gruden, anyone else?

Glad you get it my cowboy brother. I’m a cowboy fan not going anywhere but I am content with beating the Eagles Giants Steelers. I know a championships not coming anytime soon with this family. I think it would just shock us all.

Exactly man. It's a family business. The team is run unlike any other in the league. And that's probably never going to change. Im hooked, but I will not allow my children to become fans of this clown show.

Are you Jean Jones? That would explain a lot.

Of course Jerry is a problem. Everyone knows this.

But if absolutely nothing matters, and changing coaches and players won't make one bit of difference, why even follow the team at all?

And fwiw, I personally would bet that swapping Dak for Patrick Mahomes would make a difference.

I really think Jerry wants to win and I think he wants it so much he would change his ways to get it. For Jerry it is all about his legacy and getting the attention he craves. Stephen is not like that. His priorities are not the same. When Jerry is gone and Stephen is in control, things will only get worse.

But in general, you are correct. Jerry and Stephen are the problem in Dallas and that is not going to change. Still, Jerry said there will be accountability. And Bryan Broaddus said he is hearing things will be different this year. I am willing to see what happens next. Will father and son fight over free agency? Get the popcorn ready.

And that’s why this Bozo needs to speak. Tell us lies. Tell us anything. But don’t be a coward when your team just crapped the bed and the plan is to run it back! Be accountable for a change.
