Re: I think I actually may have some hate for Jerry Jones

Not on some deep personal level

But just the way this guy thinks that his presence is all the Cowboys need to win a Super Bowl. Or yet, even a playoff game.

How do you not even look into Bill Bellicheck in this situation? And you stick with Mccarthy?

Mike Mccarthy has had Brett Favre, Aaron Rogers, and I guess Dak Prescott. He does have a Super Bowl, but only one in 17 years with those quarterbacks.

There is a clear better option with Bellicheck available, and Jerry Jones sticks with his losing coach and quarterback.

I even know that Jones gets into the locker room and runs some things with coaching I think. Maybe just a rumor, but I wouldn’t doubt it.

I don’t care about the Cowboys or any NFL team for that matter.

But given you are the richest franchise in the entire world, leading the 2nd place Yankees by $2 billion, it’s actually unbelievable they haven’t won a Super Bowl in 30 years.

Answer is Jerry Jones.

Mccarthy, Prescott, and whoever else can get blamed and taunted, but it is Jones who has put them in that position. They aren’t the right fits for a Super Bowl, and Jones somehow doesn’t see it that way.

Actually I’m editing this, and I now want to claim that Dallas brings death to coaches and their careers. Because of the expectations that are set because of their resources.

I really don’t think Cowboys fans will be happy enough. If they win one, they will just need another. And they’ll complain for the next 15-30 years that they don’t again.

Any coach for Dallas is doomed

not the way to go

I agree that Jerry is too involved, and I think that him not being able to stay out of the way and let the GM and coaches do their jobs has absolutely hurt the team. I also think that the Cowboys have made some poor decisions regarding the contracts they've given out to players recently that have also hindered them, most notably Dak Prescott. As others have said, Dak is not the future. He's a mediocre quarterback and that's all he'll ever be. His arm strength and passing accuracy are mediocre, and he's slow and can't run or elude pass rushers. He doesn't perform well under pressure, on the road, in big games, or in clutch situations. He's especially poor in the playoffs. I'm not in love with McCarthy either, I think he's also mistake prone and struggles to think on his feet and make good in-game adjustments.

Having said that, hiring Bill Bellicheck would be another big mistake. Bill's defensive genius will always be respected, but he is way over the hill at this point and has no clue how to run a modern offense. His drafting has been nothing short of terrible, just look at how pathetic the Patriots skill position talent has been for well over a decade at this point (with the exception of Gronk). They haven't had a great receiver since Randy Moss. It's remarkable that Brady was able to find so much success with the no-name receivers and running backs the Pats always seemed to end up with. But make no mistake, the only reason it worked was because of Brady. Brady masked the offensive deficiencies that the Patriots had in other areas, and as soon as he left, it all got exposed. Just look at what's happened in New England ever since he departed. If you let Bellicheck take over your team, you'll turn into what the Patriots are now. You might have a great defense, but your offense is going to be one of the worst in the league.
