Back when Jerrah fired Tom Landry, I didn’t watch for two years til after they when to the Superbowl. I should’ve never stated watching.

Yep.

But at the start of the next season it’s “This is the year”

I’m getting too old for this crap.

Cowboys are going to stink next year, the other three NFC teams are passing them by.

At the time I couldn’t tell who Aikman or Smith were or what school they came from.

All I knew was they were losing big time from reading the sports section in the paper.

Talk about feeling old.

The Cowboy’s offense was rolling until Pollqard was injured. I do believe they would have won that game had he remained healthy.

They would have had a chance for sure.

There was no way they were going to win with Zeke, would have been better with Malik Davis.

Yep

Overpaying for mediocre Dak, zek, Zeke, and Lawrence as well as an aging Tyrone Smith. Can’t pay pay Vander Esh too much cuz of that.
Will get lost draft picks because they got into the playoffs.

And will keep McCarthy but lose Dan Quin.

So, yeah. A big stinkingđź’©

They still got to the Superbowl that year and won but it did knock him down a peg.

Dallas is snakebit under the Jones.

They chances were cut in half at that point. They could and did stifle Zeke and wigged out Dak enough to spook him.

Only the defense kept it from being a clown show.

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - In roughly 24 hours since the AFC Championship game was set, the Bengals have now overtaken the Chiefs as the favorites for Sunday’s game.

FanDuel, Bet MGM and numerous sportsbooks have the Bengals as 1-point favorites to beat the Chiefs in Kansas City for the AFC title.

The initial spread opened at Chiefs -3 at DraftKings Sportsbook.

Despite being the favorites to win on Sunday, FanDuel Sportsbook has the Chiefs with better odds (+260) to win Super Bowl LVII than the Bengals (+270). The Eagles remain the overall favorites at +240.

The Cowboys were so good with Aikman - Smith - Irvin - Novacek that they won a Super Bowl without a head coach (referring to Barry Switzer).

Didn’t care for Switzer but my hatred remained for Jerrah.
Dallas has had the talent over the years but what they didn’t have was a competent coach. Only ones that are willing to work for Jerrah are toadies like Jason Garret who lasted 10 years because he let Jerrah override any important decisions.
