Ego.
Him spending money is still a power position. HE pays the players.
He's loyal to coaches... who dont question him.
A top coach would want way more control than Jerry is willing to hand over.
Well played.
Cowboys nation in full meltdown. Very entertaining.
The running thought is that McCarthy surprised Jerry by turning him down. Which would be pretty huge.
That's all that matters when you are starting threads about board policy and moderation. You need to adapt to the environment. We arent changing almost 30 years of policy for you.
I'd question that because I was there in the 90s when the Refs used to throw flags on the crowd at Rich Stadium for being too loud. Even had equipment on the sidelines to measure the dBs and would penalize us once we went over the loudness of a jet engine. Havent seen anything like that since.
Maybe in a different year with a different draft class. But this is a DL-heavy draft, similar to WR last year. We should be able to get a DE, 1DT, and even a 3DT out of it.
Not worth overpaying another old guy.
"I know it isnt sexy, but damn is it..." then notices Josh looking at him and knows something is coming.
Was probably going to say something like "but damn is it important"
Agreed with a lot of the first paragraph. But Philly is a real bad match up for us. They're similar but better than the version of the Ravens we got in week 4 this year.
I worry more about that match up than the Chiefs. But gotta get through Arrowhead first.
