CFZ This organization has one CORE problem with 5 letters

You need to make a copy of your post because you can reuse it again in 10 more years. Nothing will change, as I said 17 years ago and was mocked

People have been saying this for decades so don’t try and come off as some savant.

When you’re right , you are right.

These fans should be angry at themselves for buying into the hype . I’d use much stronger words than fickle.

This is why our causal and wagon fan base around the country are the worst.

Being a Garrett apologist all those years makes you a casual fan right? What are you super fan in your own mind or just a condescending type.

The core problem has 5 letters: J-O-N-E-S. They are really good at making money. That’s it. They aren’t good at building championship rosters. Sure the QB is not great, the defense is undersized, we have an outdated offense, and a soft culture. But those problems were all caused by the real problem: The top of this organization.

This team needs a rebuild starting at the GM position. Having the same two guys making all the big decisions about this hasn’t worked for so long now just changing or adding to the player mix or changing HCs isn’t going to fix the core problem. Jerry Jones has hired a good player evaluator for the draft in Will McClay. Without McClay, this organization is a perennial 6-8 win team.

In fact, in my estimation here are the biggest problems and how to fix them:

• (Before I hear from everyone, I already recognize this won’t happen) Jerry needs to hire a real GM. The Jones FO has a fundamental very bad problem- they don’t realize THEY are the problem. They are surrounded by people that tell them what they want to hear. Until that changes, we will continue this nearly 3 decade cycle. They think they are really good and they aren’t. (Except how to make money) They think waaaaaaaay too highly of their own talent. Which is deadly in a league where other teams are led by men who‘s job depends on their success.
• It’s time to plan for a new QB- easier said than done, but this organization never seems to get serious about drafting a QB. Look at SF. They had just drafted their “franchise” QB in Trey Lance two years ago and still drafted Brock Purdy in round 7 and got lucky anyway. That never happens here because they don’t even try.
• This defense is undersized and cannot impose its will without a big lead. Parsons is a great talent but I’m not convinced this team knows how to use him properly. They can’t stop the run when they have to. If Parsons is neutralized, the defense is pedestrian.
• This offense is outdated and takes few chances- This isn’t the 90s or early 2000s. The “West Coast Offense” is not used much anymore because defenses have figured out how to stop it. It is in essence a very conservative offense that without any real deep threats is anemic.

This embarrassing loss could be used for good if the leaders of this org would allow it. (They won’t)

The rest of this season they should be way more aggressive, continue churning the roster and send the message that NO ONE is guaranteed anything. They won’t do that, but they should.

If you fix the QB issue, the offense will likely change and we wouldn't have to run the West Coast offense to try to make up for an inadequate QB's deficiencies.

Your assessment is spot on though.

And when I said it, this board put me in BOARD JAIL because I would not buy into past Cowboys fools gold. Told to find a new team. Why am I here. ETC. And I will go out to say this team might not even make the playoffs. Injuries are mounting up and a coach that doesn't know how to use his personnel

Might depend on how you said it?

You're not wrong.

they were totally beaten and outclassed. Physically, mentally, whatever.
Complete butt kicking.

I'm okay with losing. Losing like that? Not ok.

I have a lot of four letter words for some of the problems we have.

I’m more of the condescending type. But most who know me personally do consider me a super fan of sorts which I’ve never advocated for.

Part of my support for Garrett was driven by my critique of our ownership and the fact I have little hope with Jethro. Plus I enjoy taking the masses on these sites with more difficult or less popular subjects establishing an argument.

I stand by it. I created quite a narrative with the Greatest Puppet. It’s still left to be seen if another Puppett will knock down the door this era.

That's what I was thinking.
