There are very few similarities between the Commanders and the Cowboys and how their organizations are run.

Sorry, but hatred and bias aside, these two organizations really are not vastly unrelated. They're both very poorly run. The difference is that one owner can hide behind Super Bowl titles won over a decade ago, while the other cannot. The Commanders have actually won more playoff games than us in the last 10 years. Jerry is a complete and pathetic failure as a GM. He has been utterly wrong far more times than he has been correct.

We have one heck of team built to start the next decade. We need to find a coach to get the most out of the talent. Sadly, I do not think Wade is the answer so I am not expecting a lot of post season success this year. I hope I am wrong about that as I would love to celebrate a SB victory with a meal of crow.:)

You're buying an NFL team right now. Both are the same price and are on the market. The only difference between the 2 are the rosters and you're going to hire a whole new coaching staff and front office for either team.

Put your Cowboys bias aside. Are you telling me you'd buy the Commanders over the Cowboys? Your criteria is playoff wins over the last decade?

If you would take the Cowboys roster over the Commanders, what does that tell you about the roster our pathetic failure of a GM has assembled?

What about if the rosters were somehow fairly equal and the deciding factor was cap room. You want the Cowboys or the Commanders cap situation? You'd take the Commanders because they've won a meaningless playoff game in the last decade? Again, that was what you gave them props for.

If you would take the Cowboys cap situation over the Commanders what does that tell you about the management of the team?

The Raiders, Buccaneers, Seahawks, Panthers, Rams, Titans, and Chiefs all have won playoff games in the last decade too. So you'd take any of those teams as they are built right now over the Cowboys?

Dude, that is just silly. I understand not being happy, but you don't have to push it to hyperbole and head in nether regions. Where do you see Jerry Jones suing season ticket holders who have fallen on hard times financially in a struggling market? Where do you see him having banners taken away from fans? Where do you see him ordering t-shirts turned inside out or threatening to take away season tickets? Where do you see him black balling the media outlets who are critical of him?

The only difference you see is that Washington has a GM who is separate from the owner? I suggest to you that you are not paying attention.

3 Super Bowls aside, there is no comparison to the way Jerry runs a team and Danny runs a team as you suggest. That is plain old bitter hogwash. Pay attention for a change. You might learn something.

Aye there's the rub - you cannot separate the supporting organization from the players - as he noted, the problems with these organizations isn't so much in the talent of the players, but in the organization itself, namely, the megalomaniacal owners of each.

And let's give credit where it's due - both of these teams have a long history of winning and have long stretches of great coaching. But both fan bases now suffer under the whims of madmen.

No, we are talking about the owners, only one of them has a history of winning, as a matter of fact, he has won more than any other owner, save one, in the last 20 years.

You cannot be serious comparing Jerry to little Danny.
