Technically, it's all of us who still buy merch. Who still go to games. Who still lob Jerry softballs at him when we interview him. Jerry's too comfortable. If Jerry owned the Eagles, I could see billboards all over town and people storming the Ranch and throwing poooo at the windows.

And Jerry would love it all. He wishes this fanbase was as aggressive as Philly he’d have so much free press he wouldn’t need to do interviews lol.

Same with society in general. Same as the AG in Fulton country and deal that came out yesterday.

It’s across the board and until a certain segment is held to the same high standard as the others, nothing will change.

You think the bar is lowered. I think the issue for last 30 years is Dallas has been overrated. Our team is mediocre. The so called great 2007 team that flamed out against the Giants was average defensively and got exposed. The 2014 team was bad defensively and would have lost even if the Dez catch counted. 2016 the Cowboys was a great story because of rookie seasons from Dak and Zeke but people seem to forget they were still expected to finish last with Romo at quarterback. Jerry finds a player like Romo, Dak, Parsons, TO, Ware, CeeDee, ect that he can market then the Cowboys train begins to roll. The Joneses have figured out how to have a team that can marketed all season including the the playoffs but their failure to make the hard decisions or to hurt a few feelings keeps the Cowboys from being great.

I am serious about the no extensions. Not for Dak, CeeDee, or Parsons. If they get upset. Trade their azzes. Open competition at quarterback. Dak will probably outperform Lance but give the kid a chance to play with the first stringers. Jerry has to shake up the front office. Hire someone that makes him and Stephen nervous about coming to work. We have skill players. It’s time to bring in trench players through the draft and free agency for both sides of the ball.

They were NOT expected to finish last in 2016 with Romo. They were expected to be a legit SB contender. Man, stay of the craxy hyperbole to try and elevate Dak based on that 2016 season..

Your Dak hate blinds you. The reason why the 2016 regular season was so enjoyable is because nothing was expected from the Cowboys. Everyone knew Romo was washed going into the season. Why do you think on the draft zone fans wanted us to get Wentz or Goff in 2016. Romo was a good hit away from being done and that is exactly what happened. Got clipped in the preseason.

You know that’s a good point. A lot of these Romo guys sure were in draft zone wanting Wentz lol.

Does your game ever get tiring?

You're literally wrong about everything every single year then you come on here trying to be sly and word things certain ways or play word games trying your best to make your questions impossible to answer, because when one question is answered you will follow up with another in this weird endless cycle.

You're wrong about everything. Always. Every year.

Now play your endless game of questions with someone else.

LOL.. you said there was nothing expected from the Cowboys in 2016 WITH ROMO. That is a flat-our bogus take, it’s so bogus I wouldn’t have any problems calling it a lie. It’s your Dak love that causes you to make ridiculous statements such as this.

Begore they even drafted Zeke, they were ranked 5th as the odds on favorite to win the SB.

They were even ranked 5th the year before when Romo got hurt and they started out 2-0 . And everybody knew Zeke was the MVP of the Cowboys that year in 2016, which is why they rested him in the Eagles game.

Most fans don’t accept the Bar has been lowered this era . And it’s not because of our team. It’s because of our owner .

An owner who by default of insisting on wearing all hats being the face of the franchise and head of football operations , even at 81 years old .

It’s a handicap 30 NFL teams don’t have to overcome . So yea the greatest obstacle in the league does lower the Bar.

The Cowboys as a result of our owners ambitions and egotistical ways no longer are a championship caliber franchise . Only in name!

About all I can come up with for those McCheese groupies here is "he's better than Garrett and his 3 consecutive regular seasons record."

That's what we have lowered ourself too now.
That regular season relevance hyped team.

Nothing else. I mean absolutely every other detail of your OP I wonder the exact same questions as you have.

Spot on post brother.

They both are the same when it comes to the PO, even with HFA on your side. The only home team to lose and not by a FG either.
