Absolutely

It's been 25+ years of failure after failure so whats the difference?

However from Jerry and Stephen comments they do not desire to win it all. They may say it but they absolutely dont mean it by actions. Just fooling the average dumb fan.
He is more then happy being relevant to average to stay in the spotlight and cash in on sales. All the man cares about

The Rams had never won a Super Bowl in Los Angeles, and with the Super Bowl coming to their new stadium they took a shot and it paid off. In need of premium draft picks and cap space they’re having to dismantle their team. Going all in for one season came with a steep price. It would be stupid for the Cowboys to do something like that with their history. They have five championships. A great roster doesn’t guarantee success we’ve seen the Cowboys go one and done with a couple of great rosters. I would rather build a team you can keep together for a few years than one you can only keep together for one season. The Rams went from winning a championship to the basement in the NFC West.

Sounds like we have some fans that don’t believe in going all in! Kinda like Jerry.

With our legacy( 5 Superbowl wins and 8 Superbowl appearances) or even without our legacy( the Rams legacy), I would go ALL in with the team we have right now!

Our legacy right now, is just below, New England and Pittsburghs legacies, and equal to the Whiners legacy. Everyone else is looking up at our legacy. This is after 27 LONG years of failure in the playoffs!!

I know some of you don’t think we can win a Superbowl with Dak, but WE can!
I know our D played well in the playoffs, but we all know, it could have played better( the long drive the Whiners had, the Whiners scored easily before the half). The D needs a couple of elite pieces to be a TRULY dominant D. We need an elite run stuffing DT to pair with Hankins, an elite LBer, Bobby Wagner, to free up Micah( add 15 pounds and rush the passer more) and possibly an upgrade at CB, though I do like our young CB’s.

With a few moves for the Defense, we will still have the draft capital, FA, and possible trades to improve our offense( a 2nd receiver, possible upgrades on the O line, and a middle round draft choice to replace Zek)

With a truly DOMINANT D and a strong running game, Dak can JUST drive the bus.

We need to go all in THIS YEAR to STRENGTHEN our LEGACY!

A SUPERBOWL victory puts us at the top of the NFL mountain!!!
All Jerry Dumbo GM Jones had to do is bring back the 2021 team for the 2022 season. Amari Cooper was the WR needed. Gregory in all his smoke made offenses guess where the Lion King was going to come from to sack the QB. Connor Williams and Lael Collins was starting depth at all 5 OL positions.

Instead of having a real Head Coach in charge to rally the team to treat the 2022 as a return of unfinished business, the GM defacto Head Coach made unnecessary trades, ucked up contract renegotiation, and let go multiple talented players that were still under non cap killing contracts.

This is who you have as GM and defacto Head Coach. The man that did not want to resign Emmitt Smith, traded 2 no.1 picks for Joey Galloway (never was a Pro Bowl WR prior to trade), passed on Randy Moss, fired Jimmy Johnson, and ran off Bill Parcells. He is what and who he is. Because of this, the Arlington Jonesboys are what and who they are for the last 27 years.

Honestly the Rams were one play away from losing the super bowl. Lucky for them Donald got to Burrow but Chase had beaten Ramsey bad. Had that happened then they sacrificed it all for nothing. I'd rather have a contender long term than to sacrifice it all on one year for one super bowl. But then again Jerry is old as heck and if I was in that situation I'd definitely gamble it all.

This team needs:

Defensive tackle who can win against the running game
Linebacker to upgrade that corps
Cornerback (starter)
Edge rusher

Running back
Guard (starter)
Right tackle (Starter)
Wide Receiver (Starter)

Draft and free agency could supply all the team needs. But the bargain basement shopping the Cowboys are famous for will not get it done.

Dak can’t even drive the bus so nothing matters until we make a change at QB.

Jerry went all in to get Deon and Hailey. How did that workout?

Going all in means taking chances. Using FA and trades not just the draft.
Haley was before the cap and Jimmy used a 2nd to get him but Jimmy had stocked up on picks. Jimmy coached Haley.

There are no 2023 free agents remotely close to Deion's ability to impact the game. Deion was already the greatest CB in history and his athletic ability was top 3 all-time in football. Free Agency had only been in existence for 2 years at that point.

The Patriots never went all-in during their run of 6 Super Bowl wins. TB didn't win by himself. They have top notch rosters.

I don't believe in going all in because the guys making the personnel decisions are Jerry and Stephen Jones.

There's no pressure on them to succeed, and they've shown us who they are. They're not up to it. These two masterminds are giving us the best they can.

Going all in means using all tools available( Free Agency, trades and of course the draft) to get your very competitive team over the top.

Tampa Bay did go all in when they picked up Brady. The Rams went all in. Philly went all in the last 2 times they were in the Superbowl.

last season was the time to go all in, the nfc may have other stronger teams this season, like the giants, and seahawks etc.
The rams and packers may bounce back, Minn could get better.

last season was the weakest nfc I have seen in a long time.
But this season might be a good time to go lets say in alot instead of all in, which is misused term.
I think the only big FA jerry might sign is obj, which isnt gonna cut it. I wonder if jerry saw the plane video, and thought yeah this guy is what
we need?? lol

we need to stop using this term "Going all in " teams can do more than ordinary, and not be all in.
All in give the impression it is for 1 year only, and it will vary from team to team.

Go all in?

The time to go all in is in the offseason. In what offseason were we supposed to go all in?

Last year? Coming off a dismal playoff performance, and facing a huge bump in the cost of a lot of key role players?

Go all in after an NFC Championship game to push you over the top.

Another time to go all in is *after* a rebuild, when you've built a cheap young team that is starting to contend. Then think about going all in on free agents to again push the team over the top. If you start from a cheaper baseline, you can go *bigger*, so you can start a little lower in development.

Eagles are in great shape. Contenders with a starting QB on his rookie contract and two 1st round picks next year. Time for *them* to go all in.

You need a good coach and a good QB or it won't work
the rams went all in but they acquired both those items

Let's just stay the course. No need to get off track. It's only been 28 years. It's not going to happen overnight.

As long as #4 is pulling the trigger....we ain't going anywhere....and the body count will rise. The list of scapegoats Dak is piling up is impressive. :popcorn:

What does 'all in" even mean.

Like, give a specific example of "all in."

I would rather go All In after hiring a real GM .
I don't want Jerry making All In decisions.

Jerry looks drunk and confused in that picture!!! :laugh:

P.S. - I would go all in ONLY if it would guarantee us a Super Bowl win.
