Dallas Cowboys team owner and general manager Jerry Jones and undoubtedly happy with the way his team has performed this season, and it’s pretty clear why the thinks the team has been so good – the coaching.
During his appearance on 105.3 The Fan this week, Jerry Jones had some high praise for head coach Mike McCarthy.
“Well, he’s coached three playoff teams in a row,” Jones said according to Pro Football Talk. “I think he’s done an outstanding job. I think the fact that he’s your offensive coordinator as well as your head coach puts him as high or a higher stead than when he was the walk-around coach. All of those things are positive.”
In fact, he had some high praise for the entire coaching staff, sending a clear message that he thinks the best part of the team this year is the coaching stuff.
“I frankly said to the staff yesterday, ‘You got us in this spot to be as disappointed as we are about the Buffalo deal and our loss there. It’s your fault because y’all have done such a great job this year getting our team to where we, our fans, everybody have the expectations that we have. You pushed us up here to where we get out here and play great the next three weeks and we could absolutely have something great happen for us. Now you all caused us to be disappointed here on Monday by not living to that standard up there, but hats off to you,’” Jones said. “In other words, I didn’t spend my day in there looking grumpy or however you might look, even though we were all disappointed. The best part of our team this year has been the coaching staff.”
We’ll have to see if that coaching staff can lead them to a Super Bowl.
