“Also, what the hell is that background, Perna?” “Oh, it’s Hell” “Oh, okay” this is top-tier commentary that i can’t seem to find anywhere else on the internet.
It's his ego, that has really ruined things for the Cowboys for about 30 years. Jerry has been complacent for far too long and doesn't take accountability for the lack of success. It has gotten bad to the point that the fans insisted for him to sell the team and sadly that probably won't happen. I don't know where the Cowboys go from here on because it's getting more uglier
It will get worse… I remember those years post triplets. Toss in his advancing age and doing his best Al Davis impersonation and you will have an even worse reckoning.
Jerry Frickin Jones should act like a normal owner...higher a GM to make decisions that are prudent. :) So long as Jerry does what he does...the Cowboys will continue to suck
Ironic how that 3rd superbowl win did so much damage to the Cowbous long term, as it was the catalyst to make Jerry think, "See, I made the right call firing Jimmy, I am the real genius here!" When really it was because the team that was left was good enough to win it all again. Once it was gone, Jerry has never been able to put the pieces together again. And the only common denominator in the past 30 years has been him.
We traded away Amari for a 5th even though Gallup was never ever healthy. And now Amari was traded away for a 3rd and Gallup is retired. The Cowboys never trade for star players or sign star players and still expect to win. You are not good at your job, Jerry. Everyone can see that besides you and your yes men 😭
Jerry still thinks the star on side of the helmet means something and that star players should go to him and ask to sign with them instead of the other way around
I hope he holds the reigns all the way to the bitter end. If he wants to Wile E Coyote his precious Cowboys off the cliff that badly, let him. In 20 years ESPN will have a hell of a documentary. "Jerry World: The rise and fall of 'America's Team' "
I’ve been a cowboys fan for almost 30 years now. I’ve put up with a lot of bs from Jerry but that was the final straw for me. Not only is he dodging accountability but he is bullying and threatening an employee who is just doing his job. I refuse to have anything to do with the boys while Jerry owns the team.
He’s an elderly man now. The Cowboys have always been his little playground, and it was always a huge negative, but now it’s an elderly man’s playground.
You just listen to the scouts! You know...the scouts that said Brock Purdy (#2 in passing yards) and Juan Jennings (#9 in receiving yards) and Jordan Mason (#2 in rushing yards) weren't any good so they were all selected in the final round or were free agents. Those scouts, baby! They know what's up.
I'm sorry but Mike Lynn is the reason Dallas won those Superbowls. Not Jerry,Jimmy or Barry. Nobody was or ever will be as stupid as Mike Lynn to make a trade like that and cripple your own team for years after.
@@johnpoole3871From everything I've heard, yeah. He was shocked that they traded for Walker, and flabbergasted at the compensation they gave. Knowing Jerry Burns like I think I do, at least 2 dozen expletives flew in at most the next 3 minutes.
He said the same thing about Jimmy Johnson when he said he could find 50 coaches to do Jimmy's job he only found Barry Switzer who took Jimmy's team to another Superbowl. Jerry has been screwing it up since 1996.
What really angers me about that Jerry Jones comment isn’t that he was right it that he was rewarded with a superbowl and a tremendously loyal fan base who he continues to leech off of and disappoint year after year. I hate the Cowboys, but more to the point, I hate the Jerry Jones Cowboys.
They salary cap started in 96 and Jimmy Johnson did worse than the coach he replaced in Miami. It was a top rated team and Jimmy was supposed to take them over the top. He never got close to the sucess he had in Dallas.
@@HarupertBeagleton-dz5gw Jimmy Johnson has a NCAA National Championship and Two Superbowl rings and Switzer many as well give him the third Superbowl ring. How many you got?
Diehard Packers fan here. Living in the DFW area. I listen to 105.3 the Fan on my drive into work every morning. This was radio gold. Jerry is straight slippin’. 📻
Interesting that the Cowboys ,Lions and Washington are the only teams not to have played in an NFC title game since 2000 and this season Detroit and Washington could wind up facing each other in the NFC title game leaving Dallas the lone NFC team 😂
Senility and of course Jerry’s boundless and unchecked Ego. I have hated that man for years. So yeah that is what is wrong with Jerry Jones. He is doing his best Al Davis impersonation.
Im a life long cowboys fan and fully embrace Jerrys crazy. This has been building and been put on the back burner for decades and now its all in his face. I hope Jerry steps aside and let the coachs, coach.
I really wish the radio host had said "this statement proves that you clearly just want yes men and that is why the team is performing the way that it is"
*Jerry Jones is the best owner in the NFL with what he has done to the Cowboys. I hope he never dies and never sells* I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I'm a Packers fan but I'll bet I speak for fans of 31 teams when I say it.
My family and I are cowboys fans. My dad has been a cowboys fan since 70s, and he’s never seen Jerry so upset before. Jerry is losing it. I get that he’s upset about a blow out loss on his birthday, that makes sense. I’d be disappointed too. But I wouldn’t go as far threatening my reporters for just doing their job. THEY’RE DOING THERE JOBS! What more can you ask out of a reporter/interviewer than asking an important questions about the team? For context, the guy was asking if Jerry regrets not making any moves in the offseason, and he backlashes them? What the heck! What do you want him to ask? Jerry’s ego is getting in the way of the team’s success. He fired Jimmy Johnson because of a falling out, he’s lashing out at reporters for asking basic questions and pointing out the facts. For the sake of the Dallas Cowboys future and success, the Jones family MUST sell the team. Because Stephen Jones isn’t looking any better than his dad, and might actually be behind the idea of being cheap and only picking up leftover and dollar tree players in the offseason.
There is so many things wrong with Jerry Jones. The first thing is a massive and unjustifiable ego. He insists and demands that he is the reason the Cowboys are successful even though he arguable never was, so if someone other than him gets credit for Dallas doing good he gets mad. If anyone ever tries to even hint or imply that he's wrong he'll threaten them in one way or another, that interview clip for one. And honestly the worst part of it all, he's the most powerful individual in the NFL more than the so called Commissioner. He can literally do whatever he wants and get away with it.
This is true but he only has power because he's a bully and nobody will stand up to him. The league is full of cowards and dummies at the executive level. We need another Al Davis to come along and shake them all up.
Jerry is the only owner or GM that does a press conference after every game + local radio every week + his own local TV show every week. He’s loves attention. Go watch the way he does his press conferences after every game. He deliberately has himself surrounded by reporters, instead of standing at a podium or sitting at a table in front of a wall of sponsorship logos, like everyone else’s press conferences. This is because the image of being surrounded by several reporters, that are all holding recording devices towards him, makes him seem more important.
That's the thing. There is nothing preventing owners from involving themselves in these decisions other than self-control. Thankfully, a lot of them generally don't involve themselves in these decisions, but franchises whose owners do, generally suffer massive consequences *cough* Dan Snyder *cough* Dave Tepper.
I think it's very important to note that Packers owners are not allowed to purchase shares in other NFL franchises without relinquishing the stock back to the team.
He's an idiot if he thinks anyone, anywhere, thought buying the Cowboys was a bad deal. Even at the time they were one of the most well-known franchises in sports and he paid nearly NOTHING for the team. Did the deal go better than he expected? Probably. Did anyone expect the franchise to collapse? No. Absolutely not. That was never going to happen in any timeline.
The way the payouts to teams works in the NFL means no real penalties if keep having bad seasons. No matter what, you got the same amount if in 1st or 32nd, so no incentive to do better. Then you have the moon sized egos of owners, especially like Jerry Jones who will never admit they are wrong.
Then WHAT, pray tell, is the radio interviewer's job? If it's not to ask tough questions of the owner/GM who comes onto the show to talk about how the team is doing? Especially when the team just got clocked by Detroit? And YOU, dear friend Jerry, were the one who started this "All In" business that is now being memed to hell and back. Why shouldn't the radio host be asking those questions? Jerry may be stinking rich and have every NFL executive kissing his ass and he may have a free pass to grope the cheerleaders (allegedly), but that is NOT how journalism works (in an ideal world, which - I admit - we currently do not have). I have zero love for the Dallas Cowboys - I was dancing with glee after the game on Sunday - but this is something that pisses me the hell off. Corpo assholes don't get to dictate what questions they get asked - ESPECIALLY when you have a journalist actually DOING HIS F***ING JOB, which is rare as hen's teeth in this day and age. Perna put up the Hell background and Jerry can't get there fast enough.
The come back question to Jerry should have been "So was it smart or stupid decisions that made your business successful and allowed you to buy the Cowboys? Were you just lucky to have all your money and expected to continue as a football owner as well?"
Do people forget that Jerry Jones (and Jimmy Johnson) used the #1 *OVERALL* pick to choose a QB in *2 CONSECUTIVE YEARS?* This does come with the asterisks that Jerry & Jimmy didn't know they were giving up the #1 overall pick when they forfeited it to take Steve Walsh in the supplemental draft, but I'm pretty sure they knew it was going to be a top 3 draft pick (IMO - this would be analogous to Carolina trading their 2024 first-round pick to move up in the 2023 draft, then being surprised their 2024 ended up being a very high draft pick.) The truly funny thing is Jerry & Jimmy's mishandling of the 1989 supplemental draft was the catalyst for their mid 90's dynasty run. If the Cowboys retained their first-round pick in 1990, they would have almost certainly taken Blair Thomas whom most 'experts' considered to be the best RB in the 1990 draft, and worthy of a #1 pick. They missed out on Thomas, but they were able use the Vikings' 1st round pick to trade up to the middle of the first round and select Emmit Smith - thus proving his point about good things coming from stupid decisions. Everyone seems to believe Jerry and Jimmy were incredible team-building architects who were playing chess while the NFL played checkers, but when I look back on how they fumbled into success like the _Forest Gumps_ of the NFL, I view them as being closer to Barry Switzer than they are to Tom Landry.
They need to burn it down and start with hiring a GM empowered to make changes for the 2025 season and retiring from the team. Some self-awareness that he has run out of ideas and needs to step away for the good of the team is now essential. Looking at it positively, they have the time at this stage in the season to take their time and interview young up-and-coming execs to get someone bright, innovative and who will maintain the commitment to a positive fan experience that is Jerry's best legacy since those Super Bowl years.
GPS owned Seahawks would be one of the best things the NFL could ever do for itself. Hell it would be one of the best things to ever happen in any sport ever.
Ya know, that crazy idea of buying the Seahawks to be a feeder team to the Packers and Broncos…kind of collusion. But as the NFL enjoys any-trust exemption…😅
Jerry Jones is stating that they are NOT ALLOWED in an INTERVIEW to question the decisions he made as the Cowboy’s GM. This shows Jerry Jones thinks he is so much better than them, like they are unworthy of doing their jobs. Jerry Jones truly believes HE’S THE MAN above all others.
A lot of people are missing the point with Jerry's craziness. HE'S OLD AS BALLS. There's no 82 year old human being on the planet that has a filter when speaking. My grandma would randomly tell my sister her makeup looked ugly lol and we'd be like that's just mimi bein mimi. Jerry just bein old ass Jerry. And then throw in the rich and powerful side of it Jerry Jones DOESN'T GIVE AF
Jerry is doing what 99% of NFL diehard fans would do if they had the money. He's like a NASCAR fan who won the lottery then fielded his own car so he could drive. Jerry makes money participating in the highest level of football. He's living the dream. Winning doesn't matter, he just wants to be in the game.
The old man thought he was the reason the Cowboys were brought back from the dead in 90s, however by all available evidence it was far more his close friend (at the time) Jimmy Johnson’s excellent coaching and a collaboration with Jerry to pull some of the best roster building moves in NFL history. He needed a partner to keep himself in check and work with to actually pull off building a championship team. While Jerry has a decent record by himself in the draft, but certainly has some massive bust see missing out on TJ Watt for a guy they cut in two years in the 2018 draft, he’s free agency moves have been very underwhelming since Jimmy’s departure and certainly has struggled with making the right coaching choices. He has been obsessed with proving he could win a championship without Jimmy and it has become apparent he never could nor will.
This radio clip is the perfect microcosm of why the Cowboys ain't winning a damn thing while Jerry Jones is still alive. Pure, unfiltered hubris on display.
Jerry sees the purpose of that radio show is to blow smoke up his nether regions, not hold him accountable to his fanbase for the decisions he is making for the team. The hosts were not feeding his narcissism the way he enjoys.
Ok guys hear me out. If Seahawks go for sale we need to pool all our resources and get Tom and Brandon to win the bet. Then it can be a fan controlled football team.
THE dumbest thing in NFL history.... What other team has ever done anything like that at the peak of their success? From one of the best moves in history (the Walker trade) to the absolute dumbest (letting ego swallow his dynasty). He couldn't handle the greatest of successes with Jimmy, it would be pretty silly to think he could gracefully handle what today looks like. Go Cowboy$$$
I will fire you and get a propagandist in there to ask fake questions”. Jerry runs it like a circus and they are a clown show. You can’t win with an atmosphere like that and they don’t. Look at how he makes the players basically practice in a zoo where he brings tours in. His ego is out of hand and he has been on an egomaniac, narcissistic crash out for 30 years. They are one of the only teams that haven’t made the final 4 since 1995.
Jerry involves himself in every aspect of the team. He goes into the lockeroom after games for crips sake.Who knows,maybe follows players into the shower He wants credit for successes but doesn't want blame for failures
Jerry Jones " Idiot things can turn into good decisions" The local boston newspigs said drafting Tom Brady was a IDIOT DECISION, as NE already had 3 QBs on the payroll. ( Then Brady takes NE to 9 SBs) 49ers RU-vid commentators said drafting Brock Purdy was an IDIOT DECISION, as he would never make the team. (Then Purdy wins 8 straight games as a rookie, and takes Frisco to the SB) IDIOT DECISIONS in the NFL are sometimes the best decisions..... while "GOOD DECISIONS" are sometimes the worst decisions.... Trey Lance, Bryce Young, etc.
I'm not sure if next week I want the guys on The Fan to go in hard or if it'd be funnier if they asked literally the most softball, irrelevant questions ever.
This is many owners Tom. Some just prefer to threaten from the shadows. They should have no say in controlling what they do not own. F Jones and F the vast majority of these entitled clowns.
