Jerry Jones says being owner leaves him free to risk losses as GM: 'I can ... come back for more'

One of the reasons Jerry Jones has job security as the Cowboys general manager is that he believes he is free to take risks, also being the owner.

“That is one of the luxuries of my position as owner as well as the ultimate decision maker, general manager and president – I can do that and take the losses and come back for more,” he said this week at Valley Ranch, talking about his management style.

“I have won with that style,” he said. “We are not managing a widow-woman’s retirement account here. In other words, to compete, I think we need to be aggressive. You play the game, you manage the game that way. You take some risks. When they don’t pay off, they look bad. That has happened.”

The conversation began when reporters asked Jones why fans are divided about quarterback Tony Romo. Jones said it goes with the position, with the Cowboys, and with their image.

“We have a pattern of that. We have a precedent of that,” he said. “Aikman didn’t have to have it long because he won it pretty quickly, to his credit. He played at a high level quickly. His predecessors had it, certainly with Roger Staubach. You had it with Danny White. And you had it as far back as Don Meredith. It was so intense, that the criticism probably contributed to an early retirement of Don Meredith.”

Asked why Cowboys quarterbacks get such criticism, perhaps more than quarterbacks on other teams, Jones said, “We push a lot on the table with the Cowboys. Picture going to Las Vegas and putting an inordinate amount on the table with every hand. We do that, and I am a part of that. When you do that and you don’t have the right hand, then you subject yourself to a lot more criticism.”

I'd like our owner to be more like Jones in the fact that he wants to win and it will do anything to do so.
Cowboys had a problem in the secondary, so they brought in Brandon Carr and paid him and they traded up for their guy.

This organization is too pussy to make such moves in the draft.

The Cowboys are a rich, good-looking version of the Chiefs.

Jerry is a power-mad, egotistical jackass. At least Clark has some sense/humility.
I agree. At least Clark resembles a real person to some degree. Jerry is a caricature, he's one step away from a reality television career...

You could just as easily argue that Jerry Jones is a control freak who has to have his finger in everything. Clark Hunt came in and hired what many people believed was the best GM candidate in football to run his football operations and didn't pretend to be a personnel guru.

Matt Cassel was really bad...but Jerry spent a 2nd on Quincy ****ing Carter....like a black Matt Cassel with a coke problem...and no brain.
the amazing part is every TV in the nation will get to watch the giants kill them next sunday
and chiefs raiders is available in very select areas

Outstanding coach. Great mix of X's and O's and motivation.
Why didn't he do anything with the Dolphins?

They still won 36 games in 4 years.

He's a good coach.

Even "bad" Jimmy was better than any coach we've had since Marty.

Still. Any coach could have won with those Dallas teams.

I can credit him with putting the team together.

Period.

Switzer doesn't count, because all he did was win with Jimmy's team.

You dicks. I spent my formative years in Dallas during the Cowboys' glory years.

I know more about those teams than the 92-93-94 Chiefs.

(secret Cowboys fan)

Clark is a caricature of the spoiled rich kid who never worked a day in his life for anything. He plays that role quite well as the Chiefs gutless, incompetent owner.
