Cowboys Headlines: Jerry Jones offers honest opinion, trade candidates

Posted on by fanentrance admin

The talk around Dallas has been all about how archaic the Cowboys look on both sides of the ball. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones admitted as much during his radio interview with 105.3 The Fan on Tuesday. Indirect shots at his head coach Mike McCarthy have set off a firestorm of activity that most would agree have sealed his fate. Anybody looking for some type of apology after last week’s headlining rant, Jones offered none and says its a privilege for the radio station to have him, and his cast on the station.

Elsewhere, Dallas has always been connected to potentially available players but the time may have come to unload some of their own. The Cowboys come off their bye week facing an equally decimated 49ers team, yet are still underdogs going into the contest. Lastly, candid reactions from a former Cowboys quarterback elicit a response from former members in the latest Cowboys news and notes.

For better or worse, free agency can shape teams into contenders or set a franchise back years. The lack of moves can also be scrutinized just like this former Cowboys cornerback who is starting for a contender in the NFC. Did Dallas make another offseason mistake?

Micah Parsons: Cowboys’ mentality going forward has to be to ‘step on necks’ 

A rocky bye week hasn’t changed the message coming from Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons. “just the simple things, being disciplined, can’t kill each other on red zone trips. Can’t kill each other on third downs.”
