[@claytonlockhart5649]

And I've been saying this for several years now. Unless and until the Joneses hire football people and let football people make football decisions the Cowboys are never gonna even sniff another NFC Championship game, let alone another Super Bowl 😔😔😔

[@arturboy777]

More than a power trip, I think Jerry does it this way because it helps him in his other businesses. He enters a business meeting with Ford or Oil and Gas and him being the cowboys guy disarms people for a sales pitch. They go to dinner afterwards and he can impress them talking about why or how this or that happened in the team.

We last won a Super Bowl in late January 1996. Just a little over one year away from the 30 year mark, which is depressing. I remember as a kid the heartbreak of losing to the Steelers twice, the joy of beating the Broncos, the three NFC Championship game losses of the early 80s, and the great dynasty years of the 90s. I still watch because I’m a fan, but even when we won 12 times three years in a row, it was like waiting for the other shoe to drop come playoff time. As long as Jerry is in charge/alive, doesn’t seem like there’s hope.

Think of how asinine it is for the Jones not to want one of the most successful cowboys in history who demands commitment. Someone who loves the cowboys. If you ever hear Troy speak you can quickly realize the quality of person he is

Uncle Fish, all I want for Christmas is Troy as our GM!!!!!

[@tommysmith3514]

I think we are more likely to get Romo as an OC. I also think he would accel at that role. Also, Jason Witten went on to coaching little league, or maybe high school football. Point is I cant think of a better tight end coach. They are both devoted Cowboys and JJ respects them as much as they respect him. Now, Emmitt Smith Might show an interest in Coaching, if Jerry were to make a REAL offer to him, and that guy would be WELL received by all.

Troy needs to help no matter what - screening for good character guys in scouting - scouting / drafting / free agency- as for GM - Troy with that position would be the start of another volume in the dynasty, with consistent championship runs.

[@robertwright5647]

Fish have you ever asked Troy if you could write a biography about him telling a lot of the Uncle Fish stories you tell about him?

[@edtoth4676]

My recollection is that in 1997 Troy pressured the Cowboys to draft David La Flaeur with their 1st round pick. Hmmm, how did that workout? Love Troy the Qb and what he was in the 90's. What makes everyone think he would be a great GM ? Yeah, I know, anybody but Jerry and Stephen.

[@samueljudah2061]

That would be unquestionably a huge slap in the face to Will McClay whether he would admit it or not is another matter.

[@rickvega3036]

[@johnf2414]

Troy Aikman as the VP of football operations, allow him to promote Will McClay to GM or let him go out and hire his own GM. Let him run the football side of the house. Its all a dream!!!

[@spinedoc893]

If Troy was to get hired as GM (or any legit GM got hired) I'd love to see them hire Michael Irvin as some sort of coach or just to be around the team and have his energy in the building. As great as the roster was in those SB years and as amazing as the triplets (and so many other players) were as football players I think the contribution that Irvin brought to the team in terms of energy and pure desire to win is vastly under appreciated. That Michael Irvin 'fire/passion' is EXACTLY what is lacking from the Cowboys organization. They've had lots of great players since the triplets and they've won lots of games BUT have they ever had that winning feeling about them?? Have fans ever truly believed they were a legit threat to win it all?? I mean actually believed not wishing/wanting???

[@robertblackwell7878]

They had that energy with Dez but Stephen and Garrett did a hit job on him because those two lack the ability to understand that type of enthusiasm to want to win so bad.

[@facelessman3685]

[@darwinhunter3439]

Here’s a question though…would Jerry or Stephen ever risk being the guys that had to fire Troy? Firing Landry, Jimmy (though mutually agreed), and then Aikman! They might never recover from that.

[@elliswoods5694]

I think we need someone like Troy who wants accountability. Accountability from the GM, coaches and players. Where i draw a pause on Aikman is the last month or so he repeatedly says Mccarthy is a great coach and deserves an extension. I don't want anyone who believes MM deserves an extension Prescott was worthy of his new contract.

[@spinedoc893]

I agree that Troy would be an amazing candidate to be the GM. I agree he'd likely be willing to it for significantly less $ than the 18mil he's currently making. I believe Jerry would hire him. I don't believe Jerry would EVER actually allow anyone, even Troy, to be a true traditional GM and have full control over football operations other than in name only. So I don't believe it will ever happen. My prediction is if someway, somehow Jerry 'agreed' to hire Troy and give him 'full GM powers' Jerry would still be butting in all the time and still doing press conferences, saying stupid things and doing his usual idiocy and Troy would be frustrated and gone in a year or two. I've heard Troy say in interviews many times that when he retired it was as much about the way Jerry ran the team and the useless 'yes man' coaches that he kept hiring and that there was no accountability as it was about his injuries/concussions. Basically he retired out of frustration and sadly this would be no different. I get that the star players like the triplets etc love Jerry for what he allowed/enabled them to accomplish in the years that Jimmy was there and that he helped them become wealthy but I bet they all have some deep frustrations and anger about what he did to the later part of their careers with the way he miss managed the team after Jimmy. Imagine what their careers could have been with competent management/coaching after Jimmy??? Very frustrating as a life long fan!!

[@richardgreene7184]

Why would Aikman leave the booth ?

[@Diesel65-tl3zv]

Fish if you get the chance ask Jerry the 1 simple question the guys on 105 the fan will never ask and it’s a simple one, “Jerry would you still employ a GM who hasn’t won anything in 30+ years ? That’s a reasonable question to me as a life long fan it’s not enough to go 12-5 anymore why is it the eagles can have the best roster in football and the richest sports franchise in all of the sports not just football we have to listen to Stephen tell us we can’t afford free agents that could put us over the hump.

People will think I am crazy but I think Jason Garrett would be a great GM.. He is a great talent Evaluator… Just don’t let him have anything to do with play calling!

[@jeffreymilby447]

It doesn't matter if we win, lose or draw the remaining 3 games of the season, winning only worsens the draft, and losing means getting one better player, but after the draft, it won't even matter, we'll still be a least 3 or more years from being a legitimate contender, this team has more holes than a slice of swiss cheese, our run defense is as porous as a sponge, and #4 is unreliable in games that matter, not to mention those pesky hamstrings or the fact that 9 years in still working on footwork, although the left side of the oline seems to be a positive, so we'll have what the 6th 7th pick in the draft

[@bleedazul4-life]

If Aikman loves the Starvand Dallas so much why is he so biased against the team its very noticeable and undeniable

[@arturboy777]

Jerry can call himself the GM all he wants but the truth is that he is just an owner who everyone in the building, with actual jobs, have to explain everything to him in a way he understands so that he can approve it, and that is the organization's bottleneck that he supposedly wants to avoid by appointing himself the GM. At the end of the day, GM is just a title and the rest is a chain of command. If he's not accountable then he is not the GM. By the way, I hope you make video about what is being said about the Jets ownership because we're not to far away from that clownshow.

I would rather win with another team. The Jones’ are far more interested in making money - than winning. The interests of the owners and the players are not aligned.
