If this has been posted, apologies, feel free to delete.

Came across this article this morning and found it interesting.

Perhaps a wake up call for Jerry?

Reality is the bigger question is Jerry looks half dead in the picture they used of him.

For a billionaire, you think he would actually pay for his hair cut LOL

It's not that they lost to a 7 seed. Upsets happen, and 5 years is is a pretty small sample size. So let's keep that part in perspective.

It's that they were heavy favorites and got absolutely dismantled at home to a 7 seed.
It was clear that our players had already checked out to the off season the week before the GB game, That's why they looked so bad.

The problem is that the quitter mind set has become their standard, and that is why so many games this season looked exactly like the GB game no matter who the opponent happened to be.

Should have blown it up because you have to clear out the mind virus infected players, and start all over to get rid of the effects of a team of quitters.

Do we need incessant complaining constantly about things that are already known facts do we need to keep complaining after every playoff process then we're going to bring up our playoff issues I mean again and again and again you guys like redundancy captain obvious we all know about this this is not a new news story we talked about this after last year and we saw yesterday we watched and we saw the NFL play out we heard everything can we stop regurgitating this is like where being force fed food like birds feed their young I don't need your regurgitation or redundancy it is overplayed the horse has been beaten put out the past year and eaten it's done we all know our history the last 28 to 30 years we know everything in detail...

Bad you guys are trying to up your post counts by starting new posts that are not new not new information there's nothing to see here that not anybody here is not aware of we don't need to hear about Derek Henry or say Quan Barkley or the fact that we didn't draft a running back last year and especially I don't wanna hear about Tampa bay's running back Bucky whatever his name is Irvin because he's not special 17 for 77 at 4.5 ypc is not special but I had to hear about that on social media like that should have been the guy we targeted maybe we didn't get but man what a special player he is really 'cause those numbers don't look special nothing he does look special.. Ricos puts up those numbers...

we don't need to hear about our run game or our defense or anything you have new news how about Wednesday, we talk about the coaches ,because we don't even need to hear about Mike McCarthy he doesn't have a new contract but at this point nobody else has been hired in the NFL yet I know it's been closed to say New England is about to hire Vrabel, but really this process just started..

We especially doesn't need to hear about our off seasons or free agency or how our GM is very mid below average we don't need to talk about Jerry Jones and the front office and Steven Jones we don't need to talk about contracts we're all well aware of the history of the Dallas Cowboys and everything that's not new news has already been discussed to death so I just wanted to just make sure you understand we already knew most of the information that gets here are reposts from Twitter Bleacher Report or ESPN which most of us have push notifications on our phone we've already heard and we've already most of the time have already discussed the same subjects at nauseam.

The redundancy and regurgitation just the beating the dead horse on old subjects most of these are old they've already been discussed you think we didn't talk about the running backs or last year's seven seat collapse or the offseason or the coaches or anything else has been discussed to death....

we don't need to keep going over the fact that there is no new news on the coaching effort none of this stuff is necessary you guys have me fresh story of fresh philosophical debate you would like to start you have anything new you'd like to add I would love to hear it...

And yes, I have a choice whether I open these or read these or even check into this place, but I thought I'd come in and offer my opinion because i need a vent because i'm tired of the same old posts , so I'm venting, somebody bring up something new...

I know it's tough right come up with something new to discuss don't start a new thread if it's not new why don't you go look for another thread on the same subject and just post under that?.

There's no question that Jerry and Stephen need to make serious adjustments, as to their way of doing things. That applies strongly to their usual habit of avoiding going after legitimate tier one and two veteran free agents during the free agency process. I think it would be wise for McCarthy to make it clear that he wants more talent to be made available through an improved process of handling veteran free agency. it's a two-way street for both sides to make improvements for the team's strength to improve. Otherwise, things could only remain stagnant and sadly wanting.

Keep this in mind too...

We are just one Commanders win away from being the only NFC team to not make the championship game in the 21st Century. Not win one, just make it there.

I can readily picture Mike McCarthy breathing a sigh of relief, now that he won't have to put up with Jerry's nonsense any longer! He may not be an up-and-coming master of all that being an HC entails, but the curse of working for Jerry will finally be over. He will likely be much better off.

Yep Jerry was so embarrassed he ran it back with completely predictable results. Nothing embarasses the king of the Forbes list.

The game wasn't even close. Dallas got taken to the woodshed.
