Without him, just imagine how dreadful it might be . . .
We would not win even worse.

And apparently, not a big ego. May be a good thing.I’m not sure what it says beyond the fact he’s very well paid and doesn’t take the heat directly as a GM.
Will is basically doing what he loves without being held directly accountable as a GM. And probably why he’s content to remain here.
He scouts out the talent watching all the film and let’s our dysfunctional ownership make final decision. Easy peasy.
And Cheapskate Son deals with the contracts . Sign me up . Will has a cake walk.
It's not been very good with him.
Maybe it would be worse, but zero deep playoff runs is still zero deep playoff runs.
I'm in the camp of, if he's so great, then why can't we win back to back divisional titles? Why do we take turns with Philly, Washington, and NY? Why can't we build on successful seasons? We went 12-5 last year. Does anyone think we go 12-5 or better this year? If we draft great then they must draft great also since we're in a constant rotation with them.
This is the kind of thinking I want to challenge. Did the Bengals just go to the Super Bowl with a 2nd year coach and 2nd year QB?Great insight. I feel like there are too many fans that get too concerned about what these moves are going to do for the Cowboys THIS year or immediate return. This FO built a flawed roster, one sided and top heavy. And they had bad contracts on the books. In the last year in a half I feel like they have been able to maintain being competitive and have succeeded in restructuring the roster in a better way. Not only that, but getting rid of most of these bad contracts with veterans.
If they Cowboys can go 11-6 or 12-5 again and do it with younger talent then thats a win for me. This roster had lots of work to do. The defense is now legitimate and young and talented. This Oline isnt going to be rebuilt overnight. Fohenko, Ball, Steele, we just need one of these guys to hit. If two hit, great. Tyler Smith we now have another tough guard. Can Biadasz develop. The Cowboys have to hit on some of these guys. Mcgovern and Williams didnt work out.
WR room has basically been revamped. RB is next. To me I am looking at 2023 if things go well as being the beginning of having a window to be a true contender.

They are in pretty good position to win in 2022 and if what they have done works, they will be even better in 2023. You say they did nothing. That thinking is flawed. They have done something. It looks like they are adding young players with a good work ethic and attitude. They should have at least 20 players on the roster in their 1st or 2nd year. Will this work and make the team better? If they hit on this draft, it very well could. Time will tell and we will see.This is the kind of thinking I want to challenge.

Did the Rams go to the Super Bowl with Goff and Gurley...pay them big money...lose in the Super Bowl....move on from both of them....then go back to the Super Bowl with a different QB...add a different core of big money players (Ramsey, OBJ, Von Miller)...win the Super Bowl....move on from OBJ, Von Miller....add Bobby Wagner, pay Matt Stafford...and are loaded for another run?
I simply do not want to hear about another "process"!!
Here is what I can promise you....if Jerry had a mandate that he has to go a step further next year...than he did the year before...he would have made different decisions this offseason. Nothing was done to win NEXT year!!!!

So they are better at WR with CeeDee, injured Gallup and a 3rd rookie from South Alabama?They are in pretty good position to win in 2022 and if what they have done works, they will be even better in 2023.

They are fine at wr with Lamb, Gallup, Tolbert, Washington, and Brown.So they are better at WR with CeeDee, injured Gallup and a 3rd rookie from South Alabama?
So the Cowboys lost 2 starting OL from last year...and you are better with a 21 year old rookie from Tulsa?
I think the DL is the same as last year
I think the DB will be the same as last year (depending on what happens with Boss Man Fat)
I think the RB position got older...which is not better when both are injury prone
I am hopeful these rookie help us one day....but I cannot see how are better NEXT year.
I hope you are right...but they were easily handled by the 49ers in their own building and the 49ers were not even the best team in the NFC WestThey are fine at wr with Lamb, Gallup, Tolbert, Washington, and Brown.
I think that Smith will be an upgrade over Williams at left guard.
I think that the dline is improved with Fowler, Williams, and Ridgeway,
The secondary is good.
Running back is fine.
Having Quinn in his 2nd year is awesome.
The Cowboys should be the favorite to win the division and can compete against any NFC team.
They lost to the 49ers by 6 points. The 49ers beat the Rams twice. Once by 21 points.I hope you are right...but they were easily handled by the 49ers in their own building and the 49ers were not even the best team in the NFC West

I didn’t listen but did he say that? Never ever take thunder from Jerry. He will be on the next train out"I am the brains of this here operation "
Did he really say that?
Of course he did not say that!I didn’t listen but did he say that? Never ever take thunder from Jerry. He will be on the next train out
It's fan like you that make the Jones richer and richer every year....the 49ers....came into Dallas...and socked us in the mouth. If we played them 10 times on a neutral field...they would beat us 7 times.They lost to the 49ers by 6 points. The 49ers beat the Rams twice. Once by 21 points.
Any fan that spins last year as the arrow pointing up....needs to get their vision checked.Looks like you didnt understand anything I said. And you appear to be the exact type of fan I was talking about.

Lol, the Cowboys could easily beat them. The Cowboys were favored and were 1 play away from winning even when they played badly. Wilson was inches from catching that ball on the 11 yardline. If he pulls that in it looked like they would have scored and won the game.It's fan like you that make the Jones richer and richer every year....the 49ers....came into Dallas...and socked us in the mouth.
