"Same ole' same ole"........the Cowboys! Jones thinks he can will us a Super Bowl. And he has spent plenty of money in doing so! He won't learn, nor is he willing to admit he's wrong in his approach to hire a GM. We should have figured that out some......34 odd years ago when in buying the team his early words were " I intend to be in charge of the jocks and socks......" Sounded like and is the epitome of "micro-management"! Yes, I agree with all above he should fire the GM and hire another.
But Jones wouldn't do that any more than can the coach and become one himself! Yes, I believe he is a frustrated head coach! ( the last to do that I believe was George Halas; but decades ago!) All a dream!!
And we're dreaming if we fall into that trap! No wholesale changes will be made until he's wearing a " toe-tag" as one of you pointed out.
And as for Dak Prescott, I really like him...... but he is not a 40 million dollar quarterback! At 30 (by the time the Cowboys line up again in '23 we'll have QB who counts a ton against the cap) He still can not go through his progression of reads in 2.5 seconds! In the Tampa Bay game he was looking at one or two, and then would "take off" And he had good success with it (scored 1 TD) Great game, but our QB led the NFL in interceptions...this year! (15)
So, we also have a "stutter stepping" Elliot who will probably be "trade-prohibitive" because of the cap-hit, and the unknown of Tony Pollard (with the high ankle sprain and broken fibula) so Zeke will stay, IMHO.
So, as Troy Aikman aptly put it..... years ago "You have to progress quickly to a championship team, because the window closes sooner than one thinks"
Now there's a guy who could be GM! Naw, I'm dreaming again! He knows Jones and would not even entertain such position unless he had complete control!~j
