3 things:
1. Dallas did trade for JPJ. That was their big move (wanted more though).
2. Jerry ls comments today were not shining a bright light on heimer. And I don’t think he makes it to next yr if they miss the playoffs.
3. Jerry is telling heimer to make it work
Why does everyone overrate draft picks? While trading Dak would be great for him. We would basically be punting until 2030. Especially w/ this FO.
This needs to play out like GB w/ Rodgers. Ride it until the wheels come off. Then trade him or let him walk.
Another thing. Can we stop assuming a stat sucks just bc the process is subjective. Everything is subjective. And you want analytics to be subjective bc that allows the programmer to actually base what they’re doing off what the data is telling them. A fixed formula does nothing
So if you’re going to talk sports nationally or locally, or be a journalist. I think you should be required to take classes on how to understand stats 101. That way basic breakdowns won’t be classified as “reaching”. Bc at that point you’re just insulting your intelligence
I will say this about the offense. That’s lambs 1st fumble all yr. The opis were horrendous. And the offense is one of the least penalized offenses in the nfl.
Just a lot of stuff they don’t do all happening in 1 game.
Shane Steichen isn’t a great coach. But Steichen has this team at worst 7-2. He has the corpse of allen leading his WR room, w/ Daniels jones at qb and the route concepts he was drawing up. We would throw parties for
Schotty wasn’t all at fault for this one. Lamb costs you at least 7 points. Getting screwed by the ref show.
But this was scared coaching. And he gets bailed out by a perfect throw and catch by dak and flournoy once again. The play sequencing sucks. The route concepts suck
Oh they absolutely would. This doesn’t mean go cheap. This just means there’s no direct link between paying a coach a lot of money and winning a SB. More that you need a good coach. And good coaches cost money

So you don't think Dallas would be better off right now if they were willing to pay coaches like Liam Coen, Ben Johnson, Sean Payton, Kubiak, Vrabel, Matt Lefleur, etc who were all unobtainable for Dallas since they're paid triple or more what Jerry pays Schotty?
Sorry j think I hit the response limit for today hahaha. But you are completely correct. It’s just w/ the way Jerry worded what he said. He’s not technically wrong. Moreso you need a good coach and a good Hc will always cost money.

How many do the bottom 10 have I wonder? 🤔 If it’s 2-3 I think it’s fair that it doesn’t matter but if it 1 or 0, then I’d say 30% is a big jump.

Or just go for it these next 3 yrs with a really good qb. And fix the main issue being the HC.
Shoot MM has this team in 1st place right now. Also, you’re not going to have the cap to do anything w/ your rookie qb. So you’re wasting his rookie contract right there. It’s illogical

Trading Dak to a contender for what would be a big haul and rebuilding with the picks and players you get vs holding onto him and trying to retool through the draft with a limited amount of picks before he retires or leaves in 3 years?

This is so very incorrect. Harbaugh and Payton didn’t get paid top dollar until after they won. And since then they have amounted to 0 SB appearances.
There are 3 coaches in that top 10 list that have a SB.
Jerry Jones says that paying a coach top dollar doesn't correlate with winning.
The top 5 coaches in the NFL in annual salary are a combined 25-11-1 this season, and have a combined six Super Bowl victories.
Andy Reid ($20 million) - 5-2 and 3 Super Bowls
John Harbaugh ($20 million) - 4-2-1 and 1 Super Bowl
Sean Payton ($20 million) - 6-2 and 1 Super Bowl
Sean McVay ($19 million) - 4-4 and 1 Super Bowl
Kyle Shanahan ($19 million) - 6-1

So you want to get rid of Dak and enter cap purgatory w/ Schotty at HC. S guy that can’t get anything out of this team you want to have a rookie qb? You’re going to ruin the rookie qb.
There’s 0 logic in your argument
I lived the QB purgatory post Aiman. It is why I defended Romo & Dak for so long. The organization lucked into two franchise QB's. There is a total unkown of how things will be whenever the time comes for change at the QB position. I completely understand the fans fear of the organizations ability to find the next guy. Is that worth keeping the status quo? The owner & GM told us today it seems unlikely a coaching upgrade is on the horizon. Hard to find optimism as a Cowboys fan right now
Guys they are not selling this season. (For goood reason)
They went 3-5 in 2024 and finished 7-10 w/ Rush. And it should have been at least 8-8 heading into week 18.
Last yr they were 3-5-1 and went to 6-5-1.
They will likely make a trade for a really good player
So the conversation w/ Stephan A is this. The cowboys don’t have a lack of trust in Dak. They just believe ground and pound is the way to win. It was the same w/ Romo. What gets me is why not go for a shanahan guy. They run the ball a lot, but are extremely good at it
I don’t think people understand that not only is blowing the roster up not logical, it’s financially stupid. The dead money you’d take on from Dak and lamb alone would prevent you from putting any type of competent team out there for about 3 yrs. So it’s new HC, rookie qb, and
