What I don’t understand is the complete over-valuing of what a player gives you here in Dallas. If you keep the same players who gave you 1 wild card win in 5 years, why should we expect more than what they’ve already shown us?
The SJ quote above just reinforces what many of us have seen for far too long. The front office here is not putting a championship as the absolute priority. The real priorities are “relevance” and profits. Because if winning a championship was the absolute #1 priority here, changes would have been made at the top a long time ago.
That’s bugging me as well. Paying more for the same players wont add up.
They just aren’t qualified to find better ones outside of McClays draft board, which is better than it was when Jerry and his drinking buddies were doing it, but far from perfect. No one’s is. That’s the point. Don’t rely on it.
We can complain forever but it’s not going to matter. Jerry isn’t letting anyone come in here and take the majority of the ‘credit’ that he feels should belong to him.
I’d love to get him on some truth serum and ask if he would rather win the Super Bowl next year with someone else being recognized as the reason or not win at all.
I think we all know the answer.
