Are Jerry Jones' 'washed' negotiations hurting the Cowboys?

   

And then there's Jerry, just, I don't, I have no idea why Micah Parsons is not signed to a contract.

I don't know why that hasn't happened like a year ago, the easiest negotiation in the world.

I think we talked about it on our podcast.

Dallas Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones Just Shared a Marvelous Definition of  Work-Life Balance, and How to Achieve It

If I'm Micah, I call Jerry and say, Miles Garrett, plus a million dollars.

Thank you.

 

Have a great day.

That's it.

As simple as that.

No, but Jerry, Jerry, Jerry has to be the businessman.

He has to get like a deal done and like that's like screwed him over the last couple of years.

Like Dak is, he's like in the best financial situation of any quarterback in the NFL and it's because Jerry wants to like portray this image that he, he's not easily taken, you know, especially with contract negotiations.

You let an overweight Ezekiel Elliott hold out and you still made him the highest-paid running back.

Like, you're washed, Jerry.

I'm sorry.

You're washed when it comes to that.

OK, this reminds me though when I was in Dallas for the Sron game and that was, it was overlapping with the, uh, with the Brian Schoenheimer intro press conference.

First of all, holy bro.

That guy can.

Jerry can talk, bro.

The first, the first answer was 15 minutes, and it was just, Why did you hire Brian Schoenheimer?

15 minutes and he cried halfway through about how good he is at picking head coaches, not for anything sentimental, just, oh, I'm this good at picking, picking head coaches, you know, from Jimmy Johnson, blah, blah, blah, and he started crying over that.

So that was weird.

But then at one point someone asked him about like negotiations and why it had taken so long for them to sign players in the past, like, after you see players like in their same draft, you get deals, why is it taking you so long?

And then Jerry like blamed Dak Prescott for like holding out until the last second.

To get his money.

I'm like, I don't know if that's what's happening here, Jerry, because it keeps happening to you.

Like, now it would be cool, but are all the Cowboy stars, you know, Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Micah Parsons, Tyler Smith, Are they in cahoots to say, "Yo, let's just hold Jerry over the coals until the very last second?"

And then we can't find anybody, and no one's gonna come play with us, and we're gonna sputter out at 10 and 7.

I thought it was baffling that he decided to blame, blame the players for that.

But it's also Jerry.
