    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    Jerry had a thing for Barry going way back to his college days. I even recall hearing talk back then, I think when Wannstadt left, that Jerry wanted to hire Barry to be the DC but Jimmy would have nothing to do with it. Jerry's just a dumbass when it comes to the football operations. We're...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    Has anyone ever told you that you sound alot like Hostile? As for the coaching hires, yes, of course there will be a difference between having coaches like Jimmy/Parcells who have power over their staffs and personnel and hiring guys like Gailey/Campo/etc. That's the whole point. Jerry hired...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    If that's what people are doing then you'd have a point. But it's not, so you may want to try again. Fact is Jimmy and Parcells had far more control over their staff and personnel than any other coach during Jerry's ownership. Fact also remains that these are the only two times the franchise got...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    I guess you missed the part "in the last 15" years. It wasn't until after Jimmy left that Jerry took full control over personnel and started hiring his puppet HC-in-name-only's so as not to be upstaged again.

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    It's definitely a yes. I've always contended Jerry's decisions as GM, both in regards to player personnel and his coaching hires have been the main factor in our decline and lack of success over the last 15+ years.

    Hiring decisions and his personnel decisions both contributed to our decline.

    Of course he did, everyone does. Some just make a lot more mistakes than others, hence what happened when Jerry took full control in '94.

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    That was actually a typo on my part. I fully agree that he hasn't been doing things the same for the last 22 years. The early years he was fixated on the financial issues of the organization while Jimmy and the personnel dept basically ran the football side. Then once Jerry's ego got bent out of...

    Other than the blabbering about some graph, I think you've hit on it.

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    I think he was involved in the early days, but from all I witnessed then and read in articles then and the press conferences and war rooms, it was quite obvious that Jimmy was the primary personnel man making the decisions but Jerry being owner made sure he had the GM title and signed off on the...

    Whether it was Jimmy or Jimmy plus a lot of luck, or what I believe - Jimmy + a great staff and personnel dept + luck... the point is it wasn't due to Jerry doing then what he's done since those days starting in the spring of '94.

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    I don't think it was all Jimmy. I just know that Jerry has been doing the same thing over the last 22 years. And I do know what happened in the first five years when Jimmy was here and Jimmy's staff and the great scouting dept. I also know who Jerry gutted that dept and what transpired...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    So I take it you fall into the category that Jerry was the same GM who built the Cowboys into three time SB champs and then just hit a little 15 year run of bad to mediocre luck? Maybe he can shake it off and get back to being that great GM from when he first entered the league and knew...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    I'm fully aware of what the team has done the last 15 years as well as knowing what transpired and who was actually in control of the personnel and who just gave himself the title. Anyone with a rational mind could see how things were run in the first 5 years of Jerry's ownership and who was...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    That's because there is no phenomena. It's just an easy default by guys like you in order to deflect any just criticism away from the way Jerry has run the organization. "Hey, ignore what he posted because he just hates Jerry!!1111!!!". Love him or hate him, the fact still remains that...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    Did this actually make sense when you typed it? "it's personal...they just hate him." Why would someone just hate him? The only thing I have against Jerry is what he's done with the Cowboys over the last 15 years. So I don't get how people think it's personal. As a person he's probably a...
