And since acquiring the team in 1989 there has only been 2 teams to win 3 Super Bowls from 1989 to present.
That being Dallas and New England.
I am not saying all of Jerry Jones's decisions have been good, but the good ones far outweigh the bad ones. |
I don't see any other owner with a list of top "gaffes." I also don't see any other teams that have non-fiction novels written about their criminal antics, featuring said owner covering up assault, drug use, etc. Sure, he won 3 Super Bowls. Good for him. He also ran Jimmy Johnson out of town afterwards, only to fumble around with the next several coaches. Switzer, Gailey, and Campo were all terrible, and we all know Wade Phillips is a lame duck puppett. Jones is a win at any cost owner, and that cost includes, but is not limited too, throwing ethics out the window.
For every good personnel decision there seems to be a bad one. And nearly all of the recent good ones came with Parcells helping to shop for the gorceries. The bottom line is, this is a cocky team that is consistently too big for their britches, and consistently fails to win in the postseason.
Say all you want about the past. It's a what have you done for me lately league, and ultimately no one cares about good regular season records when you don't back it up in the playoffs. You guys are on the verge of implosion, and Romo is going to get killed if your supposed "best line in the NFL" can't keep him off the turf (knocked down 19x vs. Arizona with a broken bone to show for it).
