Jerry Jones says Eagles bet it all to win this year, Cowboys think longer term

The Rams won the Super Bowl a year ago with their famous "F them picks" strategy of trading draft picks for veteran players, but this season the Rams fell back to earth, and many have questioned whether the Rams' approach was a viable long-term strategy for a team.

“Anybody who thinks I won’t take a chance, has misread the tea leaves. But I do think longer term,” Jones said. “And I’m real hesitant to bet it all for a year. There’s a lot of things that can happen for that year. In essence, we’re seeing a couple of teams that have had some real success putting it all out there and paying for it later, in Philadelphia and Los Angeles.”

what an ahole

 

[NittPicker]

The guy is delusional. He's been building for the long term since 1995 and probably thinks 1995 was two years ago.

He’s just pacing himself.

 

[nittanyfan333]

He’s become the new Al Davis. As long as he’s there, they will always hire and more importantly fire the wrong people. Kellen Moore is just the last in a long line of terrible personnel moves.

jerry’s got this.

I guess the Eagles will be "paying for it later" when they have two first round draft picks in April

Dallas last played in an NFC Championship in Jan. 1996.

Since that day, the Cowgirls, Lions, WFT, Dolphins, Browns and Texans are the only franchises in 27 years to not play for a championship. Hell, the Panthers were an expansion team when the D-bags last played for a title, and have since played in four title games. The woeful J-E-T-S have played for three. (FWIW, both the Stillers and Eagles have played in 7!)

Again, Jimmy made Jerry. And Jerry just couldn't handle not being the smartest guy in the room.

And Snyder's billions have only been wasted on football. Epic failure from the two biggest egos at the owners meetings is approaching 30 years.

If I may, I’d vote this as the biggest team owner fail of all time:

Lurie Buys Eagles for a Reported $185 Million

Movie producer Jeffrey Lurie said Wednesday he will buy the Philadelphia Eagles for a reported $185 million, believed to be the highest price ever paid for a sports franchise.

LB was a true douche

 

[WestSideLion]

This is laughable. Jerry can only dream of having the roster mgmt prowess that the Eagles have now proven, twice.

 

[Grant Green]

The Cowboys are playing the long game. The dynasty begins around 2047.

Jones said. “But if you miss, it is a long go.”
The Eagles won the super bowl in 2017, went into the tank, and rebuilt by 2022. Doesn't seem too long to me.

 

[Nitt1300]

As an Eagles fan, I hope he lives to be 200

 

[Grant Green]

As an Eagles fan, I hope he lives to be 200

And keeps Mccarthy as HC

 

[Lion84]

Sour Grapes much? - Eagles have more draft picks and cap space now than the D-Boys. For a rich guy he doesn't seem that bright - oh and please never sell the team or give up player/personnel decisions.

LB had no desire to spend the money to win the Superbowl.

Jeff Lurie should not waste time with this bozo. Keep on planning and winning and improving.

I friend in friend in Dallas and told him what Jerry said - he just laughed - and said if that's his plan it's not working.
