Idk but it’s annoying af lol

[@scruffd0g193]

I know right. He’s made for twitter and reporting. He has the personality of a wall.

[@robertbrown2706]

I don't know. They blew up Mike and Mike, which was great, in order to double down on the lesser-liked mike. Then they took their "Twitter news breaking" guy and put him prominently on TV all the time instead of real NFL analysts. No offense to Shefty, but he can't do real analysis on TV because he has to keep good insider relationships. And Greeny was good when he had someone who was his opposite and equal to balance things. I occasionally see this stuff and I wonder what ESPN is thinking. The network is in a tailspin anyway.

[@scottmurphy6162]

Alex Smith: “The Cowboys haven’t been to the NFCCG since 1995, worst in the conference.” Schefter: “Well Jerry Jones likes to do things HIS way.” Might there be a correlation between those two statements?

[@chriscaprio6944]

Absolutely spot on. Everyone knows this is a lose-lose situation

[@CM-jc7gk]

That's literally the point Alex is making, you're misunderstanding him. The process the Cowboys use (Jerry runs everything 100%) is the wrong process to even be able to hire a good candidate. Alex is saying Jerry is the problem.

[@lildowatt7701]

That's his point nobody takes this job seriously Troy Aikman said that a few weeks ago that this job is not that desirable because of what Jerry Jones is doing and how he's running the team this hire just proves that.

He goes after the jets too tho

[@rcoopr66]

@ I get that, but he’s not quite as harsh in my opinion. He correctly assesses that Jerry is a moron. He’s not quite as hard on his Jets owner who has historically been just as awful. He rags on the coaches, GM, & players more than the owner who controls every aspect that he constantly complains about. He’s just more loyal to the Jets for some reason when in reality he should be even harder on them because he has no real rooting interest in the Cowboys. He does it because he thinks it’s funny. He doesn’t think it’s as funny when it’s his team though.😉😂

It's so bizarre to see one of the most valuable franchises in professional sports budget shop for a head coach. They negotiate contracts one year after they should be done and sign league leading contracts to players that don't warrant the numbers under the salary cap. Good coaches are just as valuable as good players if not more.

Jerry Jones is now the HC of his team putting this puppet in the field. New low.

[@Southeren]

Alex Smith is right. It's a bad choice for Dallas at this time. No disrespect to Brian Schottenheimer but he has been on the team while Dallas struggled. From a players perspective I don't see how this is a shot in the arm for them or how this motivates the fanbase even. This wasn't a decision made based on trying to get back to the Super Bowl. The DC left Dallas, went to Washington to be the HC and is now in the NFC Championship game for whats basically the NFC East Bowl with Commanders vs. Eagles. What does Jerry do? Hires the OC of his struggling team who missed the playoffs to be the HC. This was NOT a good decision. Carroll is now bringing energy to Las Vegas, Vrabels going back to his old team in New England...Dallas...Brian Schottenheimer. Yikes.

Get you a receiver in the first round and grab your running back in the second. Be more active in free agency this time around on both sides of the ball. You do that, and then you might have something.
