How the Dallas Cowboys dynasty lived and died at the hands of Jerry Jones

Спорт

The Dallas Cowboys won three Super Bowls in four years. It was a success that defined Jerry Jones, Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, Emmitt Smith, and many others. But it also spelled and magnified their collapse.

You can draw a clear delineation from an event that occurred (the salary cap enforcement) and can clearly see the way that it impacted the roster and personnel moving forward. It’s not open for debate whether the Cowboys were spending more than other teams. It’s a fact. Their win vs the Bills being the most egregious example where their roster salary outspent the Bills by a factor of 4 to 1. It’s also not debatable if that talent left and took more lucrative signing deals with other teams as soon as the Cowboys were no longer able to pay them. You can watch the video for examples of this happening in the following years of the salary cap. It’s also not debatable if the NFL fined and removed draft picks form the Cowboys, Broncos, and Raiders for cheating the new salary cap rules. That is recorded history. When there is no violation of the rules; you also see a significant change in record and playoff appearances that directly correlates with these events.

    OMNISAIYANGOD9000 OMNISAIYANGOD9000 You also don’t have to wonder if Jimmy Johnson “would have been THAT good of a coach” because you also have examples you can reference. The Cowboys was not Jimmy Johnson’s final job coaching in the NFL. He went on to coach the Dolphins as well and took that team from 8-8 to 9-7 to 10-6 and a couple post season appearances and even a couple wins. Yes coaching is important and can make a difference; but it doesn’t turn an average to below-average team into a dynasty like has been suggested. Maybe with Jimmy the Cowboys decline is slightly less precipitated; but still a noticeable decline nonetheless that ends with little success. Which is what I am pointing out. As soon as the Cowboys could no longer straight-up buy all of the most talented free agents on defense and continue to pay all of them along with paying 7 to 8 Hall of Fame offensive players simultaneously; the Cowboys never won again. Not just a blip or bad season; we are talking about falling off a cliff and being a mostly irrelevant team for 25 years. Occasionally making a playoff but never really being a legit contender. Compare that to organizations in the modern day like Pittsburgh or the Patriots. Both have been in decline the last few seasons due to an aging roster and losing skill players. But neither one has fallen off a cliff and became completely irrelevant like the Cowboys did when they were no longer allowed to purchase Super Bowl rings. They went from Super Bowl winners to Conference Championship teams and then making the playoffs but maybe not getting far... it is a gradual drop. A quality front office doesn’t go from 13-3 to 4-12 in the span of two years. The Cowboys front office does.

  • @renshawjoshua

    Something you completely left out of your video that was a huge deal leading to the Cowboys collapse: The NFL salary cap beginning in 1994. Cowboys fans don’t want to accept it; but the majority of the reason they won in the late 1980s and early 1990s was because they bought those Super Bowls. The joke back then was that the NFC championships between Dallas and San Francisco was the “real super bowl” simply because they spent so much money on their teams in comparison to any potential AFC competitors. The “Dallas Wall” had 3 Hall of Fame Players and 1 additional Pro Bowler. How did they make that happen? There were 6 offensive linemen making over $1 million / year prior to the salary cap. 1 played for San Francisco. 1 played for Washington. The other 4 all played for the Cowboys. When Dallas played Buffalo in the Super Bowls; both times Dallas outspent Buffalo in team salary 4:1. It wasn’t just the Cowboys but the NFC in general that drastically outspent the AFC. Prior to the salary cap; the NFC had won the Super Bowl 9 consecutive times by over more than double-digits average. You can see the effects of the salary cap on Dallas immediately once Jerry Jones could no longer just buy all the best players in free agency and afford to keep all of the draft pick signings from the Hershel Walker deal so that they didn’t leave (which is why their first two Super Bowl wins they were the youngest team on average in the NFL both years). The only reason they got one more win in 1995 was they took enormous cap hits while also back-loading player contracts to make it work. They were also fined by the NFL for basically cheating the system. It’s the reason Aikman had a 7 year - $70 million extension that they never intended on paying him and subsequently they had to pay him the guaranteed money later; so he would play for less at the time and get them under the salary cap. That is the main reason for all the players leaving in FA; when the Cowboys could no longer pay everybody and they could get more money from other teams. It’s also the reason that since 1995 Dallas has 0 Super Bowl wins, 0 Super Bowl appearances, 0 NFC championship appearances, and only 2 playoff wins total in the last 24 years. When they can’t outspend other teams and it’s fair? Jerry Jones can’t compete with other front offices in terms of quality. It’s born out in the numbers.

When Jerry's ego came between what was best for the team and having to acknowledge that Jimmy Johnson was the reason for their successful comeback and dynasty in the 90s, that was it for me. The way he treated Tom Landry, and the fact that Jimmy Johnson hasn't been enshrined in the Ring of Honor at Cowboys Stadium, I won't root for them till Jerry is gone.

    OMNISAIYANGOD9000 OMNISAIYANGOD9000 Answer: No. In the NFL there is gigantic variance from week to week. Pitting good teams vs good teams they each have a reasonable chance of winning week in and week out. There is a reason that 10-6 teams have went on to win Super Bowls and 15-1 teams lose their first playoff game. There really isn’t much difference between a 13-3 team and 14-2 or 11-5 except the ball bounced one way or the other in a couple of those games. That isn’t a good barometer for “domination”. Rather you should be looking at strength of schedule and margin of victory. The 13-3 Cowboys teams you are talking about weren’t out there blowing people out and dominating the game and just barely lost 3 coin-flip games against good teams. There is a reason neither of these teams are mentioned within the same breath of other “dominant” all-time great teams. Many of those teams also not necessarily winning Super Bowl; but certainly not being humiliated each and every season when it’s playoff time like the Cowboys always are.

    I will give Jerry credit for all 3 of those Super Bowl wins in the 90s. He came into the Cowboys and they had guys like Schramm and Landry running the team who were great in their time but they no longer had the pulse of what it took to be great anymore. Jerry shook things up and did what was best for the team at the time. But the Cowboys for the last decade have for the most part been a team just missing out of the playoffs. The Cowboys needs this generations version of what Jerry was in 1989 to come in and shake things up and get them out of their rut.

The season was actually lost the minute Erik Williams wrecked his car thanks to Switzer's wuss coaching approach that put zero fear into the players for their behavior. It was clear the Cowboys had no edge anymore when San Fran beat them in the regular season, and as bad as it was there.... Switzer had them totally unready in the championship game and it was 21 points for SF before anyone knew it. Fast forward to present day...the only constant for the cowboys is failing in the critical moment, usually beating themselves....and as long as the Cowboys are in the spotlight, that's just fine with Jerrah. He doesn't truly care about winning, else he would have fired himself a long, long time ago.

    Jerry Jones is the reason that I as a lifelong diehard Cowboys fan, who grew up in a family of Cowboys fans, and even has the star tattooed on my body, am no longer a Cowboys fan. The way that he has been so try hard that he has been willing to look past domestic violence incidents of players and bring on people like Greg Hardy was the straw that broke the camels back for me after a long long list of things I had been willing to look past due to the sunk cost fallacy. My life has been much better without the weight of being a Cowboys fan while Jones is owner but it still breaks my heart anytime I think about what could've been. Can not wait for someone else to take over and do better with the team.

    The list of players Dallas lost through free agency during that era could build an entire roster for another team with a couple of notable exceptions (QB and RB come to mind). Norton and Maryland both hurt but so did loosing Alvin Harper, Larry Brown and even Kelvin Martin. The acquisition of Deion Sanders was used to try to patch three different holes (Harper, Martin and an injured Kevin Smith) but even as good as Deion was he couldn't be a MLB and a DT on top of being return man a CB and a WR.

    @Harry Engel I liked the Chase format. It made the last 10 to 12 race is more exciting because it wasn't already obvious who was pulling away in the standings. But it's so rewarded the most consistently good driver. Now the format is that there is a round by round playoff elimination so in theory a driver could win every single race the entire year and if they don't finish ahead of the remaining drivers in the very last race of the season they wouldnt win the cup. Which is stupid because the whole point is to reward the most consistent team and Driver throughout the whole year in my opinion. The other thing for me is that drivers have changed their number and sponsor so much more often. And for me that negatively impacts it. it's like the equivalent of a sports team changing their uniform and Logo every couple of seasons. Lame

Aikman himself has said the 3rd SB win was thanks to enough of JJs culture and roster talent remaining and running on fumes. The big picture is that Jerry Jones made only 1 great decision during his entire reign as owner, and that was hiring jimmy johnson.

    The saddest thing is that I'm sure he has staff provide him with information but the mere fact he thinks he can act as a GM, as well as organize symmetry of roster, coaches scheme, expected style of play in the scheme, the players to train from draft, the players to get in free agency, longevity and cap ramifications for important pieces , and NFL player and scheme trends affecting the plan... It's ridiculous. One reason why there is no continuity from season to season. Reason why whoever he defers to for specific information he doesn't provide any role or step away from particular operation. He forgets that to accrue the right amount of depth to be able to sign players to fill out rosters require coaching staffs and personell developing players for years. The Patriots showed even as a chameleon, always adapting and getting efficiency from roster, that at the lowest end the team always had a stable scheme and organized value where they will win more than lose . Patriots always carried veteran cornerbacks but would draft about 3 4 over two years span with a safety here and there. They bring in a lot of CBs as well but usually if they aren't signed for big money or haven't been developed for few years they have small roles or are usually cut unless they surprise them. Patriots were able to expand thekr secondary in 2014 with Revis and Browner and also had 3 good CBs on the bench who were good in some packages . In last 3 years the group rotated couple vets and developed another corner but essentially signed a pro bowl corner , developed another, and is lead by a corner playing safety with about 3 safeties that have been here for 3+ years. Because these units are developed for long haul , when it is needed or when value is close, Patriots can draft or sign players to supplement developed units , making them dominant thru development and keeping the cap safe. Players aren't just signed because they are good. They have to work with the whole unit and the team has to be better because of their presence, or better than a marginal player developed in house. Jones doesn't do the latter cause he looks at each team as one thing then player value and roster as another. He doesn't see the LB core as a unit where you may allocate less revenue because your safeties are strong or because your scheme and players prevent teams from running in the middle of field. If he did he wouldn't be so adamant on beefing up his offense but not having a proper complement to Amari Cooper. He also would be focused on defensive depth as his starters are full of guys that have had injury issues. Oh well more wins for the Patriots
