We all know the Jones boys love the spotlight. Jerry and Stephen both have their own weekly radio shows during the season. Is there another team in the NFL where TWO front office executives have a weekly radio show?
Have you ever had a list of questions you wish Cowboys beat writers or NFL media types would ask the Jones cartel? If so what would you want those questions to be?
Here’s my incomplete list of questions I wish Jerry would be asked:
- What is this team’s philosophy that you are building the roster around?
- How would you define a “successful season” in Dallas?
- Why should fans trust your ability to put together a championship team after 3 playoff wins in 26 years?
- How are you accountable to this fan base?
- How do you prepare for free agency and the draft as a GM?
- How much time would you say you spend weekly as a GM?
- Which current or past NFL GM who has had success you would most like to be compared with?
- Who makes the personnel decisions here now?
- What is the most important quality you are looking for in a head coach?
- Would you ever consider selling this team?
Questions I would like to see Stephen asked:
- What is this team’s philosophy that you are building the roster around?
- What qualifications did you have for the position you currently hold?
- Who has most influenced your style as VP of Football Operations?
- Why should Cowboys fans have faith in your ability to put a championship team together?
- What was your role in putting those SB teams together in the 90s?
- What other NFL executive would you compare yourself to?
- How would you define a “successful season” in Dallas?
- How are you personally held accountable in this organization?
- How would you describe your job security?
- What must happen for you to keep your job?
What else? What questions would you like to see answered?
Among your questions:
- What is the most important quality you are looking for in a head coach?
- Which current or past NFL GM who has had success you would most like to be compared with ?
- How would you define a “successful season” in Dallas?
My own question: Why will the Cowboys Not invest in at least a single middle-ground impact vet starter (ala Charles Haley) whether free agency or trade that can help be that higher helping step to get over the playoff obstacle hump ?
. I prefer addressing both the Jones at the same time, ala pre-draft, post- draft, but generally that kind of press conference discussions is gonna be geared for draft strategics, free agency, roster changes, directions, and structure.
Let’s be real, some questions such as “ which Jones makes the personnel decisions here now ? “ are gonna be downplayed and detoured,
"
i don't wanna get into all that but lets just say it's a team decision, and a team panel decides. .. "
