Cowboys Not First Choice For Jerry

Image
Jerry Jones will take his place in the Pro Football Hall of  Fame in Canton, Ohio this weekend. Photo credit: USA Today When oil wildcatter Jerry Jones paid his way into the NFL in 1989 it wasn't his first attempt to own a pro football team. The new Hall of Fame owner of the richest sports franchise in the world was not always "Mr. Dallas Cowboys". In 1966, after graduating from the University of Arkansas, Jones made a bid to buy the San Diego Chargers for $5.8 million. The team is now #21 on the Forbes NFL list with a valuation just over $2 billion with a "B". Jones had promises from investors in Missouri to secure the deal with AFL team, but his dad Pat Jones told him not to do it. This was pre-NFL-AFL merger and teams were losing money like crazy to stay afloat. Once the merger went through, the Chargers sold for $10 million. What if Jerry never listened to his dad's advice?  The speculation was that he would have moved the Chargers to St. ...

Jerry Jones Ready To Embrace Life After Romo

Image
Jason Garrett, Charlotte Jones, Jerry Jones, and Stephen Jones discuss the 2016 NFL Draft picks.  Jerry Jones has always stated that Tony Romo will be his quarterback for the next few years, but the recent draft shows his acceptance to prepare to move on. by Rodney Fisher The Dallas Cowboys started the draft with two main goals: Take Ezekiel Elliott with the 4th pick. Trade back into the first round and take quarterback Paxton Lynch. After a proposed trade with the Seattle Seahawks was trumped by the Denver Broncos to draft Lynch with the 26th overall pick, the Cowboys set their sites on Michigan State QB Connor Cook or Mississippi State QB Dak Prescott. The selected Prescott in the fourth round. When contemplating how to select the potential Romo-replacement, they sought the advice of legend Roger Staubach. His advice was to focus on the intangibles like leadership and self-confidence. Prescott was a team captain for the Bulldogs since he showed up on campus. ...

NFL Training Camp: Dallas Cowboys Offensive Preview

Image
by Chad Jones Dallas Cowboys Dez Bryant and Tony Romo A year from today, Gavin Escobar will be appearing on national television shows to preview Cowboys Camp, and will be considered a matchup nightmare across the NFL. His value won't be exclusively in production, but in his ability to transform the Cowboys offense into a dynamic attack. Jason Garrett is an adept schemer that has learned from some of the brightest minds in football. While he won't be responsible for play calling, he will be integral to preparing the offense for each opponent.

Dear Jerry Jones, Blow it up!

Image
Last night was the last time this Cowboy fan gets kicked in the family jewels. Sure we could look at the numbers and know what happened in the game, but we need to focus on what we see with our own eyes. You can't find one team in the world that has enough luck to lose a game the same way as many times as the 2011-2012 Cowboys. Jerry, you have put your team in the hands of the best offensive and defensive coordinators at the available time for what? Can you honestly say you have confidence in Jason Garrett, the Princeton offensive guru, and Rob Ryan, the next NFL head coach? Can you have confidence in a QB that throws 4 TDs, but can't hit a wide open Miles Austin to win the game? What about a defense that can't line up before the opposing offense snaps the ball? There is but one solution Mr. Jones, Blow it up! New personnel, new coaches, and a new GM. That's right Jerry...You're Fired! Stick to what you do best and market Americas team. Leave the football to foo...

Dear Jerry Jones: Watch Romo

Image
Dear Jerry,    I know it has been a while since we have talked, but I think this season will be different. We need to talk. Like you, I'm a huge Cowboys fan. Like you, I've been with this team from 1-15 to 3 Super Bowl Rings. I was even on board with you when you started your QB science project to replace the legendary Troy Aikman. I watched you mine the abyss of veteran NFLers and the vast caverns of undrafted free agents looking for gold. Just like the 21st century 49ers on reality TV still prospecting the hills and mountains of the frontier, you have to watch out for fool's gold. True, you have been able to decipher between the two before with Chad Hutchinson and Quincy Carter, but what about Tony. Your oil background keeps you always looking at a barren landscape and say, "Yep, this is the spot". I applaud that in most respects in terms of buying the team, hiring Jimmy, drafting "The Triplets", and building the greatest indoor enclosure in the world...

Cowboys still searching for defensive coordinator; Pasqualoni hired by UCONN and Manusky courted by Chargers

Image
  Jason Garrett's search for a new defensive coordinator is getting harder. After interviewing 49ers DC Greg Manusky, he meets with the upper brass of the San Diego Chargers. Many people assume that this will be a more attractive position with the volatility of Norv Turner as a head coach. Garrett is locked up for the next four years as head coach, or at least three in Jerry terms.   Interim defensive coordinator Paul Pasqualoni was announced as the new head coach for Big East winner UCONN. You can read Jason Garrett's and Jerry Jones' comments here .   This will be the first big decision for the new head coach and the most important one. The defense took a big decline from last season, even getting its architect fired in the process. The personnel needs changes and even scheme changes may be in order.

Cowboys vs Eagles: Jerry says everyone is under evaluation today; Garrett not head coach next year

Image
Ft Worth Star Telegram reported that Jason Garrett will be the head coach next year. Not true. Owner Jerry Jones commented today that despite reports nobody has been hired as the head coach for next season. He went on to add that everyone will be under evaluation in today's game against division opponent and Vick-less Eagles.   Based on our intel, this is still any one's job. Garrett at best will end the season with a 5-3 record. This is not good enough in Jerry's eyes. If he loses this game, a 4-4 record will put all chances of Garrett coaching in Dallas to zero.

Jerry Jones addresses coaching change and next season

Image
Jerry Jones talks with the media about plans for new season In summary he stated: He will interview minority candidates including current coach Ray Sherman. Has several potential candidates on file to talk with Jason Garrett's interim head coaching contract ends after the Philly game. Does not believe in hiring Super Bowl winning coaches because they normally don't win with other teams. There will be a lot of turnover with the current roster for next season. Romo will be the quarterback next season. He really feels that this will be a playoff team next season

Dallas Cowboy head coaching rumors begin to swirl after Christmas Day loss to Arizona

Image
  It was an unanimous belief that if interim head coach Jason Garrett went 5-2 or better under his watch he would be the definite head coach next year. But after Sundays close loss the Arizona Cardinals, all bets are off. You could always say that missing an extra point field goal, Kitna getting hurt or throwing interceptions caused the loss and its not Garrett's fault; but these are the same players making the same plays that got another coach fired this season. Why should this be any different?   Jerry said Saturday after the loss, "Everything that would be entailed looking at the team [or] looking at the losses, [and] looking at him for the last 20-something years." Lets just look at Garrett's time here in Dallas on the coaching staff. He was the first hired coach after Bill Parcells quit. His offense has been one-of-the-best in the NFL in those years statistically. Even since becoming head coach the team has averaged over 30 points a game. Minus the penalties o...

How long will Wade Phillips last?

Last night Jerry Jones had some strong comments about his preseason Super Bowl favorites. He said several players will pay for this including "players and coaches". When asked if he could put his finger on any one reason for the bad season so far he said, "I don't have enough fingers". After the game, Wade did not ride the team plane. He rode on the plane with Jerry. This morning I showed up to Valley Ranch and no Wade in his normal parking spot. There is a press conference scheduled for 4pm CST today. Will Wade be there?
