Everybody swears they know better than coaches and player personnel people....

[@zandz8735]

We dont need jerry to pay a certain dollar amount for a ring, we need jerry to give his son another position because he is the worst ever to do it at his current position

[@patrickburk5668]

thats such a cowboys fan thing to say lol

[@jakerivendelli]

Cowboys have changed from a Championship organization to an off season drama team 105/Calvin/others promote for their benefit as well. Every off season there will be a drama story maybe all a bunch of BS just for ratings. Lame👎🏽

[@kirklandry4662]

I can't believe this is still a story. Oh, l forgot it's the summer before training camp..

[@jakerivendelli]

Exactly! See my comment. Bunch of nonsense.

[@Capncomeback2023]

If a RB holds out, then he’d be looking for work, if I was in charge. And if they had waited till his 5th year to extend him, they’d never have given him ANY money, let alone make him the highest paid. And ever since Stephen took over Player/Personnel, our style of doing business has changed drastically. When Jerry was in charge of Player/Personnel, he spent big money a few times on players like Deion. But now, they wait, wait, wait. I DEFINITELY think Stephen’s in charge of contracts and that’s why everything has changed.

[@josebocanegra4477]

😏 The Cowboys' relative success will still depend quite a bit on the dysfunction of the Giants and Redskins and the ups and downs of the Eagles.

[@petergonzalez5239]

the last three years

[@bluebloodmanny]

He literally said nothing that we already don’t know. 👏👏👏

[@pacific570]

I stopped following the cowboys like how I did in years past And I’ll skim through KZbin and read cowboy related titles but never bother or care to watch anything because let’s be honest , we’re not winning anything 😂we’ll make it to the playoffs maybe but nothing substantial But reading the title of this video and realizing how pathetic this team is , made me bust out laughing 😂 McArthys just someone Jerry’s going to blame and start the cycle all over again 😂 I love all of you cowboy fans and wish you nothing but the best Don’t support this team, I think it’s time they feel it from us but from the looks and reading comments, it seems like everyone is back to the revolving maze that is the cowboys and drinking the kool aid again

[@donleskovar1816]

Why does a team like the chiefs win Superbowls with less talent oh because of mahomes and Andy Reid

[@patrickburk5668]

the chiefs have an amazing roster that is debatably better than the cowboys....

[@garyhester3424]

The agents are holding the owners hostage for Qb right now ! It needs to stop.

[@garyjunell9103]

Turn off leave off

[@jwill3419]

Zeke is gonna surprise alot of people.....

[@petergonzalez5239]

they were not good last year.they were ok, and the guys who left were replaced. the big issue they will have to play good teams this year

[@Leo-DaGreek]

The only fans that want the QB to stay after doing absolutely nothing in the playoffs are Black Fans!!!!’ Facts

[@brianomarrbryant]

Other than RB and possibly LT where are the Cowboys worse. Biadiaz sucked and Tyron was always hurt. Pollard is a second back. Dorance ok but no game wrecker and if Stephen was so great how come no one has signed him?

[@MoetheBossPlaya]

Lol I'm not a Cowboy's but I'm feed up with Jerry Jones and Mike McCarthy.

[@SLICK8116]

Not a cowboys😅

[@thamerkules8081]

You need an education my man.

[@mdandrews]

Why are you bothering even thinking about Jerry and Mike if you aren’t a fan, stfu then.

[@RHExperience103065]

I absolutely think they better they got younger. We got rid of all the old farts

[@Rightlydividing-wx1xb]

McCarthy, win a divisional playoff game!, so far he has no reason to complain.

[@highercourt4857]

Words to you fans and media...this is Steven Cap boy Jones team...and he runs a factory,stocks, business style .not a football 🏈 mindset.jerry made his bargain in 1995.look it up

[@s33319]

Then let someone else over pay him

[@Leo-DaGreek]

8 yr Choker at QB& a Slot receiver both who need to be replaced

[@baileyrougely8480]

When y’all going to realize it’s not your team he careless what you all think

[@dannysmuzic1807]

I think Zeke was brought in for his pass-blocking because Dallas has a few rookiez on the OLine who's strengths are run blocking, not pass blocking

[@gregorywilliams8236]

Exactly! I would also add goal line run game!

[@rodneysnextchapter615]

Dak Prescott

[@laylowe7528]

All y’all frustrated about everything the Cowboys do or don’t do really need to get a grip!!😂 We hear this team isn’t as good as last year every single year…and it’s never true!!! Don’t nobody know what’s going to happen this year…but we’ll see in September!!! Y’all be worrying and frustrated all offseason for what? Ain’t nothing you can do to change what’s going to happen! It’s silly season!😂😂

[@tmt6145]

I'm confused 🤔 Outside of Tyron Smith, what great players did Dallas lose 🤔????

[@dallasthegreat3005]

Please tell me

[@RRR-ox9ud]

I’m happy for Tyron Smith but losing him for like 6 million is why I can never spend money on the organization.

[@tmt6145]

@@RRR-ox9ud I think it was the right move for the future. Tyron is great but he's a liability due to health concerns. If your picking in the 1st rd and a top 10 tackle out of the class is on the board when you pick you gotta take him. We'll see how things turn out for both.

[@cowboys4951]

Exactly nothing but back ups

[@joshuaort201]

They didn’t lose anyone great. And there was really nobody worth the money in FA. At the end of the day, we are ALL IN on Dak to get us over the hump. We have weapons. Top 5 WR, top 10 TE, top 10 O-line. Top defense in turnovers. Just need to tighten up run defense and run block better. I believe w Zimmer on defense, and getting rid of our center, we’ll be better at both.

[@GVarner]

Need a new owner in Dallas McCarthy is a great coach 1 Superbowl 4 NFC game appearance s 11 and 1 post season record it's Jerry Jones and his son

[@Frank-pc2rs]

I love how these guys think Jerry is worried about not having Dak and going back to the 2000 to 2004 years of not having a QB. They forget Jerry kept trading his first round picks those years. I think Jerry knows now he needs to start spending some draft capital on the QB position.

[@stargazersports7831]

Every QB Jerry wanted is out of the league lol just stop

[@Frank-pc2rs]

@@stargazersports7831 That has has nothing to do with future draft picks. Maybe they will work out and maybe not either way Dak isn't going to play forever so you will have to take a QB at some point. You might as well do that now rather than 5 years down line. We have alot of young talent and if you start rebuilding now the less likely you will have a few losing seasons in a row before you're back on top again which is what Jerry is worried about.

[@RRR-ox9ud]

So true… Jerry wanted Manzel over Zach Martin. If it wasn’t for the Broncos we would have Paxton Lynch. Didn’t they target Stephen McGee with the #1 pick of Day 2 of the draft?… In addition, he traded up to get Quincy and spent rookie cap money to sign Chad Hutchinson. Let’s not forget bringing in Ryan Leaf and trading for Drew Henson…. Can’t wait!

[@Frank-pc2rs]

@@RRR-ox9ud Yea so after Dak leaves we'll probably never have another good Quarterback ever again. What a bummer huh? Dak is the Alpha and Omega according to his loving and devoted worshipers.

[@kccobbs]

Jerry Jones can’t even think right now

[@jarenboss2632]

If the Vikings do good this year with their QB situation and WR’s the cowboys are gonna drop dak like a sack of potatoes

[@thamerkules8081]

This fan base is the worst. 3 straight 12 win seasons an they wanna fire everyone. Let this franchise go thru wat others do an those same fans would be crying for dak or mike.

[@RRR-ox9ud]

What they don’t understand is that the team has won the same amount of games for 3 consecutive seasons, 3 different times. Meaning, 3 different occasions, the Jones back to back off-seasons did nothing to improve the teams record. You can’t do that if you tried…. The Jerrys have done it 3 times in the last 24 seasons.

[@darthspiderman6936]
