Cowboys have had many coaches in 30 years. They go elsewhere and do great. Magical.

Stephen hates the cowboys and especially cowboys fans. It’s all theater hiding the fact that the cowboys are the nfl despite this charade

This years Dallas KC game was the biggest viewership of a regular season game. Dallas beat last years Super Bowl matchup back to back but alas so close but once again not even n the playoffs. Maybe next year.

La chargers have the highest false starts of any nfl team but have among the lowest total penalties this year. Magic.

NFL knows exactly what it is doing. Great theater. Dallas fans never give up. There is no way 10 billion dollars could do this bad without intentionality. No other sport worldwide has this weird 30 year quality gap.

No actually mostly coaches go nowhere after their stint in Dallas is done. Look at their 2 most recent former coaches, Jason Garrett who had a 10 year long stint of mediocrity in Dallas, did 1 year as OC in New York and has been working for NBC ever since; and Mike McCarthy who the Greenbay faithful were so glad to get rid of, then the Cowboys hired him, he racked up some regular season wins, but nothing in the playoffs, and got fired last year and currently has no football job. Prior to Garrett you had Wade Phillips who bounced around the league as a coordinator, and has been in the XFL and UFL the last few years. Prior to him Parcells who finally really retired after his stint in Dallas. Dave Campo who did nothing. Chan Gailey, again did nothing. So no, ex Cowboys coaches don’t do great after Jerry fires them, they mostly do nothing.

Stephen doesn’t hate the Cowboys. He probably hates Skip, but everybody hates Skip.

Yeah Dallas played the 2 teams in the SB when they were in flux and won. High point in an otherwise mediocre season because, as always, Jerry doesn’t know how to build a team. They’ll suck next year too, cause Jerry doesn’t know how to build a team.

False start is only a 5 yarder. And if that’s the only penalty you get, your numbers will be good.

You know what else happened this year, Cowboys Giants was a day game for the first time in decades. Not prime time, not even in the afternoon slot. 11AM kick off. Dallas fans are giving up.

Plenty of sports have this kind of gap. Especially in North America where we salary caps and parity. Here it’s not about how much money the team makes, it’s about spending it intelligently. Jerry’s not good at that. But even outside of here, Manchester United is a freaking trainwreck, with no end in sight. There’s really nothing unusual about it, the high fall, the low rise, that’s what sports does, except sometimes the low are grossly mismanaged and stay low. That’s part of the fun. Jerry is a bad GM, the Cowboys will not contend again as long as he runs the team.
