The Curse of Jimmy Johnson Lifted?

[ItzKelz]

So, Im not superstitious....but its been 25-6 years since we been to a Super Bowl. Heck we havent even sniffed a Super Bowl even when we had teams that had legit teams that should have been contenders.

It is almost like we have been cursed.

Remember when The Tuna rebuilt the Cowboys roster into a legit contender and we were a FG away from advancing in the playoffs and somehow the slickest ball in NFL history makes it into the game and Romo fumbles the snap?

What about the Dez no catch against the Packers in the playoffs only for the NFL to make a rule change on what a catch is, using the Dez no catch as an example of what a catch is?

What about finally finding a replacement for Marco with Zeke and our MVP level QB gets hurt a couple of weeks before the season starts?

Even with a backup 4th round QB we actually had a great season and Dak as rookie went toe to toe with Aaron Rodgers and we still got....Aaron Rodgered?

The Zeke suspension despite the NFL's own investigator testifying against the NFL that Zeke didnt do anything?

We finally fired JG and no true offseason or preseason for the new coaching staff to truly implement their systems?

Again Im not superstitious but.....dang we have had some really bad luck. The only good luck we have had ironically has been a black cat.....

Some of us believe that we have been cursed because of how Jimmy left the team in the 90's. Jerry Jones despite being the owner and the GM not really owning up to being the reason of why Jimmy left could be the primary reason we were cursed.

26 years later....Jerry finally admits that he messed up. Is the Jimmy Johnson curse now lifted?

The curse is still here unfortunately. He’s front and center.

But we actually won a Super Bowl after JJ left. I know it was basically his team but it still happened. Not a curse, just a ton of stupid decisions and some bad luck.

If we won the SB this year, prompting Jerry to say “I’ll stick around for another couple of years!” Would you be unhappy?

We won with Jimmys team. Many think we could have won 4-5 straight SBs if Jimmy had stuck around.

That face you make when you see Goodell for the first time, after the Zeke suspension.

BOLLOCKS!
Jimmy crowned the Cowboys.
Jerry cursed it!

 

[Hawkeye19]

IF there is indeed a divine assignment to thwart Dallas tied to how JJ treated Jimmy— I would imagine it would remain in place until Jimmy is enshrined in the ROH where he belongs,

JJ saying publicly he doesn’t know why he _____ it up, is hardly a heart-felt confession or apology to Jimmy or the fans.

Yes, Greg would!

You know him already, bro. lol

 

[HotDog37]

nope not until the entire family is somehow gone from anything about the Dallas Cowboys.

I’ve always maintained I’d be against Jerry remaining as GM whether we win championships or not.

As I said from Day 1 on 2-25-1989. We will only tolerate an owner like this if we are winning but we’ll never accept his ways.

And he’s sticking around regardless anyway.

We didn’t have these forums in the 90’s but we were still outspoken about how he ran our franchise when we were winning championships.

And only gave him credit for bringing in the right person in Jimmy. We’d give him credit again if he took a similar role as he did with Jimmy.

The curse gets lifted when Jimmy is in the ROH.

There is no curse as we won the SB without him after he left.

 

[Risen Star]

Your curse is Jerry Jones and the Jones family. Leave Jimmy be.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

No Curse....just our owners playing football Monopoly.
We're doomed for generations to follow as it's a large family and cash cow.

does feel cursed..lol
lets hope its lifted. Put Jimmy in the ROH game 1 at ATT...3rd week, make it a surprise, show them in,the owners box saluting with a drink..

this would truly lift the curse..

 

[The Fonz]

As long as JJ and his sons run the show you won't see a SB .
The issue is the culture they have built more than players GM or coaches..

You forgot the grandchildren etc etc....most of us here will be R.I.P. when we win another SB.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Was it a curse when they got a ring with Barry Switzer?

 

[Point-of-the-Star]

Curses are real but I don't think the Dallas Cowboys are anymore cused than they were blessed during the 60's, 70's. It's just a case of bad management, below par coaching, and just plain football (ain't no guarantees in the game). One could say bad luck but I'm a believer that luck doesn't happen but is made.

I'm looking forward to the season.
