No. Jimmy fired himself. That was more on Jimmy than Jerry. Fans like you needs to quit the love affair with Jimmy. Great run with Dallas but didn't light the world on fire in Miami. Good thing he quit here, because as sure as **** by 96 you all would drove tarred and feathered him.
@@oneofspades Jimmy fired himself because he got tired of Jerry Jones. In Miami he couldn't do what he wanted to do. It's not like Miami sucked when he was there either.
Jimmy Johnson was the "Man" and I very much believe the Cowboys would have won more than those 3 Superbowls with him because after Jimmy was gone everything when to Shit thats why the Cowboys haven't won anymore Superbowls!😠
@Mr & Mrs V I know all that was happening between Jones and Johnson. That's what fucked everything up was and is Jerry Jones ego. But if these two would of had a better relationship I think Johnson would have still gotten they Cowboys to win more Superbowls.

@@minkymott Who cares? Bottom line: Tom Landry was denied the dignity and respect he should have been given after all he has went through as the first and only Head Coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

Landry should have deserved more than what he was given, but instead he was tossed out like Wednesday's Trash!

Jerry says one of the biggest reasons he bought the Cowboys was because he had huge respect for Landry, yet he fires Landry on his first day as the owner.
He actually said things that would lead anyone listening to believe Tom Landry was not 100 % into the Cowboy Organization. Could not have been more disrespectful.
As a diehard saints fan back then, you had to have a winning favorite team. Dallas was my Winning favorite team. When he bought the Cowboys and fired Tom Landry, my new favorite teams were: 1. Saints 2. whoever's playing Dallas

Add in the 2021 playoff game against SF and his refusal to lower the curtains at AT&T. Because he likes the way the purtty sunshine's onto the field. Who cares if it blinds the players. Oh and great list, BTW.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. He’s a business man. Jerry bought the cowboys for $150 million, it’s now worth $8 billion and is the most valuable sports team in history. For 10 years Romo had the best selling jersey in the NFL. Next to Al Davis, Jerry is the most prolific owner in NFL history
@@tyler7937Yeah, but he ran two SB winning coaches out of town and ran Barry out of town. As a GM he sucks. Part of being a good owner is having a consistently good team too.
Oh lord, where to begin? Treating Landry like doo-doo Running off Jimmy being the GM during awful draft years of 1994-2002 (which helped end the 90's dynasty early), then 2006-2009 (saddling the Romo era team with defective rosters right up until the end of his career) being too chickenshit to draft Randy Moss running the team so thoroughly into the ground in the late 90's that Aikman quit in disgust for claiming the OL didn't need to block well because "we got a mobile QB" and then not fixing the OL until that QB (Romo) had become a physical wreck from the poundings of the earlier seasons for daring to think he could replace Aikman with Quincy Carter in 2001 for the Roy Williams trade for the Joey Galloway trade for even thinking Dave Campo could be a head coach

Romo had only one coach. Bill Parcells! After that they were all puppets and Romo was self taught. Romos career was tainted by Garrett trying learn on the job. That's too bad!
Well, I say he never should have hired Jimmy Johnson in the first place - unless he went and bought a different team. But the Cowboys, it belonged to Tom Landry, you don't fire Tom Landry. How many Cowboys jerseys were burned over this?
@@chipgaasche4933 : True. H.R. 'Bum' Bright hated Landry. He wanted to fire him, and told Jerry he would do so. Jerry, to his credit - and perhaps everlasting regret - said that as the new Owner, he would take care of the dismissal. I said "perhaps everlasting regret" because Skip Bayless has often made a great point about this. In his first book, God's Coach, Bayless noted that Jerry's ego is so large that he probably wanted/wants to be known as The Man Who Fired Tom Landry. I can see that. There is probably a part of Jones that loves the fact he sent Tom Landry, and Jimmy Johnson, packing! Imagine that.
@@briancusack4386 everlasting regret?? Maybe if the Cowboys never became the richest sports franchise in the world. But Jerry seems to regret nothing because of the latter
It was a tough time to be a Cowboys fan in those days. Fortunately most Cowboys fans believe a change at HC was needed, sadly. Also, most Cowboys fans felt that Jimmy Johnson would bring the Cowboys back to their winning was....and he did. Sadly, when Jimmy left everything was over. We all knew it except Jerry Jones. We still know it'll never come back until Jerry passes away.
Jerry: I wish we could have gotten a Super Bowl for Romo. Reporter: So is hiring a GM in order? Jerry: I'm Jerry Jones the owner, president, and GM of the Dallas Cowboys
When the Houston Oilers drafted Earl Campbell as the overall #1 draft choice on May 2, 1978, Warren Moon remained undrafted! Roger Staubach announced his retirement on March 31, 1980. If Dallas had picked up Warren Moon for FREE, he could have trained for two seasons and taken over for Roger in the 1980 season. What a missed opportunity!
True, and the Cowboys could have won more SBs and maybe made Dan Marino look very pedestrian. Then too in 1979 the Cowboys had Joe Montana rated number 1 on their draft board (not the leagues) and he could have been easily picked up in the 2nd round. However the Cowboys still had Staubach, Danny White, maybe even Glenn Carano, so they passed.
@@daleschoppe9116 - They were very foolish by not realizing that Staubach was aging and needed to have a replacement that would take at least one season to learn the Dallas system.
As a USC Trojans Fan remembering Warren Moon in Washington in his Senior Season with the Huskies he did a number on my Trojans up in Seattle en route to the Pac-8 Championship and a trip to the Rose Bowl where they upset Michigan. I found it absurd that no one in the NFL drafted that raw talent in 1978.
As a Wisconsin kid in the 1960’s I really hated Tom Landry and the Cowboys. They are and will always be one of my most hated teams. But, my dislike for all things Dallas Cowboys was doubled when Jerry Jones took over. His ownership was needlessly ruthless and he chewed up and spit out some good people. As an old guy looking back I would put Landry near the top of the list off great coaches, in the mix with Lombardi and Halas. Jones needed to retire Tom, even from afar it seemed like the Cowboys were slipping, Landry’s era was over, but they didn’t need to through him under the bus and kick him to the curb.
My grandpa AND my dad say that firing Jimmy Johnson is why the Cowboys didn’t have four to five straight Super Bowls- because they had the team, the talent and will, WITH Jimmy.
If you let your ego get in the way and keep hiring push over coaches and play gm cause you dont wanna hire someone your a bad owner to some degree he had success but he is far down the pecking order of credit for those successful seasons
He handled it badly, but realistically, there was no GOOD way to handle replacing an icon. I was watching with my chin on the ground as it all unfolded 30 years ago.
TO ME THE BIGGEST REGRET HE SHOULD HAVE IS THAT THE WAY HE KEPT ENTERFERING WITH THE COACHES,NOT LETTING THEM CALL THE PLAYS.IF ONLY HE WOULD HAVE LET UP AND ALLOWED THE COACHES TO HAVE DONE THEIR OWN JOBS, I BELIVE THAT THE COWBOYS WOULD HAVE WON, AND WOULD HAVE MADE IT TO THE SUPER BOWL! IN ALL THE YEARS I HAVE WATCHED THE COWBOYS WIN GAMES, I DONT KNOW OF ANY OWNER WHO MEDDLED IN THE COACHES ABILITY TO CALL THEIR OWN PLAYS THE WAY THIS MAN DID.AND AS A RESULT OF HIS MEDDLING, THE COWBOYS FAILED TO GET TO THE SUPER BOWL. IM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE OWNER OF THE COWBOYS, WHO IS KNOWN FOR MEDDLING,AND LETTING THE COACHES CALL THEIR OWN PLAYS AMERICA'S TEAM?WHAT A JOKE!
1:49 If they would have let Romo play in the playoffs when he came back from injury and go back to Dak following year, they would have won the Super Bowl that year! Romo was totally driven and at the top of his game and it was his very last chance! I truly believe this! But we lost to Green Bay 1st game! If he would have got hurt in the playoffs put Dak in! Jerry Jones you owed that to Romo! I still love Jerry Jones! He will get a ring with this current team, maybe this year!
I’ve been saying that for years. It pissed me off so much that I after being a Cowboys fan since I was a boy, I stopped being a fan period. Haven’t watched a full Cowboys ( or any other fb game ) for 6-7 years. And I don’t miss it at all.
Their probably speaking of the 2008 cowboys they were legit really good, and they literally penalized their selves right out of the playoffs against the giants, that yr I thought was their best chance, I haven't seen a good team since though some would argue
Warren Moon would have been an asset to any team, However, Danny White wasn’t all that bad. I believe one of the biggest differences between the Staubach era and the Danny White era was Dallas simply didn’t have as many good players on both sides of the ball after Roger retired.
Landry kept alot of also/rans around.. because he like them and the team declined. Newhouse and Preston Pearson never broke 1000 yds.. and were never a threat to, not that caliber of back. Newhouse played 11 years and Pearson 13 years. As much as I love Landry.. and I do... that's not a winning personel strategy.
@@arcdestriumph586 WHAT??? He had Tony Dorsett who was arguably the best running back in the league. How many 1,000 yard backs do you need on a team? Peason, Newsome and Ron Springs all played vital specialty roles. You look at football like a fantasy league. lol
The team aged maybe a bit by 1983-1984. They were still an amazing team that should have won more than one Super Bowl from 1977-1983. The Redskins destroyed any confidence that Danny White had in the second game they played againt each other in 1983. How the 1979 Cowboys did not get to the Super Bowl under Staubach is the real mystery.
For the Cowboys fans who have followed the team since the 70's... the worst mistake is Jerry Jones being the owner... His legacy is not winning the Superbowl "SINCE 1996"... My God what a shame... The big question is this: how is it possible that a team that has not win the Superbowl in 26 years is one of the most expensive franchises in world sports? The answer is in Jerry Jones and Las Vegas... the real business of this guy...
"There are 500 coaches who could win with the cowboys" bet he regrets saying that in front of Jimmy more than anything. jerry has fired or run off more Super Bowl winning coaches than any man in the history of the nfl.
Better late than never I guess, even if the other person isn't around anymore. Personally, after 30 years, it all sounds disingenuous anyway. Plain and simple, Tom Landry and Tex Schramm deserved better...period! They sure as hell didn't get it 30 years ago.
Fact. Landry almost bankrupted Cowboys in 1985 and he should been fired in 1985 when he was suppose to retire then changed his mind after new coach had been hired.
Besides having cheerleader problems, voyeuristic employee problems, and Jerry's OWN problems involving women in elevators, Jerry obviously will be having even more problems to deal with after he fires McCarthy to abide by the demands of the National Black Lawyers Association, the NAACP, Roger Goodell, ABCNBCCBSCNNESPN, and various other forms of the Politically Correct Police to hire what will be the Dallas Cowboys first-ever black head coach.🏈
I totally get he should've handle the Landry situation differently...but his biggest regret should be not keeping his ego in check and letting Jimmy Johnson get away. I fully believe had Johnson been there for at least another 12-14 years, the Cowboys would've been in 5-6 more Supper Bowls and probably win at least 3 of them....if not 4 or more.
I think Jerry turned a corner in 2019 with the prodding of his son Stephen .He made the right moves by cleaning house with the coaching staff at the end of the season ,except OC Kellen Moore and hired Mike McCarthy ,Rams ST coach Bones Fassel ,and eventually hiring Dan Quinn as DC. Cowboys have one of the best scouts in Will McClay . Things are paying off in 2021 .They are a legit contender for the Super Bowl and don't be surprised if they are representing the NFC in February
jerry jones now is feeling the wrath of Tom Landry.. the short term looks great.. but the long term well let’s see how it plays out… rip Tom Landry. from a beloved Giants fan. we missed u then and now more than ever. God Bless..A Total CLASS ACT…👍🏻🙏🏻🌹
Tom Landry was fired by a press release. He was informed he had lost his job by a reporter. Jerry should be ashamed. The Cowboys lost a few fans that day, myself included.
Give him a break please have you ever seen him play my point if you cant call an audiabl how can you call a play this is for real cowboys fan get the fuck off my post
He definitely handled the Tom Landry firing very poorly but his running off Jimmy Johnson was his biggest mistake and it cost us at least one Super Bowl if not three.
Tony Romo, the most talented QB the Cowboys have ever had. If only JJ had assembled a decent defense and a decent RB for him to have a chance to succeed. Towards the end of his career he finally had a good O line, but the first few years he ran for his life!
Well, when you have a father and son playing fantasy football front office - who no other NFL team would hire for their self-appointed positions - you're going to come up short. Why? Because you didn't earn those roles. You bought them.
Here is Jerry's problem in a nut shell. IF?, he thought it would go over. He would yank that star off the side of the helmet. Put his face in place of it and call them the Jerry's..... he would. He sure would.
I knew it was Tom Landry before it played the video and huge mistake when letting jimmy Johnson go and hiring Switzer GO COWBOYS SILVER BULLETS SIXTH RING BOUND SEEKERS
I want to hear Dylan I’m so glad to hear if you say it’s me to do who do you wanna do better where is the baby I am on messy cause I was wrong yeah way to go right to Manor North goes I was reading your friends
I lost respect for the Cowboys and Jerry when he did that to Tom Landry! Jerry did what he wanted and intended to do then. No words now can change the truth of then.
jones buying the biggest franchise as a new owner, he had to come in and get rid of all the old guard. tex and landry needed to go, or he wouldn't get respect.
I have a feeling the Cowboys are going to finish 6-10 in 2019 . Garrett is still HC , an unproven backup QB coach is OC , and they still have needs in critical areas
Yeah Jimmy left due to Jerry but if Jerry didnt have an ego the size of Texas and sat in the office like a good owner Jimmy wouldnt have had a reason to leave. The man literally builds you a dynasty in 4 years and you cant shut your hole for 5 minutes? I truly feel that if Jimmy had stayed they would have not only won at least 4 consecutive Superbowls but they would have been an even bigger threat for the past 30 years with more Superbowl wins. Jerry has already stated the issue with Jimmy was his biggest regret. Jerry needs to shut up and be a check writer and keep his ass off the field and off the tv.
His biggest regret firing Jimmie Johnson.
No. Jimmy fired himself. That was more on Jimmy than Jerry. Fans like you needs to quit the love affair with Jimmy. Great run with Dallas but didn't light the world on fire in Miami. Good thing he quit here, because as sure as **** by 96 you all would drove tarred and feathered him.

being the GM during awful draft years of 1994-2002 (which helped end the 90's dynasty early), then 2006-2009 (saddling the Romo era team with defective rosters right up until the end of his career)
being too chickenshit to draft Randy Moss
running the team so thoroughly into the ground in the late 90's that Aikman quit in disgust
for claiming the OL didn't need to block well because "we got a mobile QB" and then not fixing the OL until that QB (Romo) had become a physical wreck from the poundings of the earlier seasons

IM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE OWNER OF THE COWBOYS, WHO IS KNOWN FOR MEDDLING,AND LETTING THE COACHES CALL THEIR OWN PLAYS AMERICA'S TEAM?WHAT A JOKE!
1:49 If they would have let Romo play in the playoffs when he came back from injury and go back to Dak following year, they would have won the Super Bowl that year! Romo was totally driven and at the top of his game and it was his very last chance! I truly believe this! But we lost to Green Bay 1st game! If he would have got hurt in the playoffs put Dak in! Jerry Jones you owed that to Romo! I still love Jerry Jones! He will get a ring with this current team, maybe this year!
I said the same thing that was romos last shot it was heartbreaking am still iffy on prescott
I’ve been saying that for years. It pissed me off so much that I after being a Cowboys fan since I was a boy, I stopped being a fan period. Haven’t watched a full Cowboys ( or any other fb game ) for 6-7 years. And I don’t miss it at all.
Jerry's so full of it!
Countless!
The real question is what does JJ think the fans biggest regret is since he bought the Cowboys.
Forget the Cowboys, give me more Karen Borta...
Came close to the Super Bowl a few times with Romo? When? Not even a single NFC championship game.
Their probably speaking of the 2008 cowboys they were legit really good, and they literally penalized their selves right out of the playoffs against the giants, that yr I thought was their best chance, I haven't seen a good team since though some would argue
He bought the team and got rid of the leadership, what’s the problem with that?
Worst thing Jerry ever did was sign Deion Sanders
Warren Moon would have been an asset to any team, However, Danny White wasn’t all that bad. I believe one of the biggest differences between the Staubach era and the Danny White era was Dallas simply didn’t have as many good players on both sides of the ball after Roger retired.
Landry kept alot of also/rans around.. because he like them and the team declined. Newhouse and Preston Pearson never broke 1000 yds.. and were never a threat to, not that caliber of back. Newhouse played 11 years and Pearson 13 years. As much as I love Landry.. and I do... that's not a winning personel strategy.
@@arcdestriumph586 WHAT??? He had Tony Dorsett who was arguably the best running back in the league. How many 1,000 yard backs do you need on a team? Peason, Newsome and Ron Springs all played vital specialty roles. You look at football like a fantasy league. lol
The team aged maybe a bit by 1983-1984. They were still an amazing team that should have won more than one Super Bowl from 1977-1983. The Redskins destroyed any confidence that Danny White had in the second game they played againt each other in 1983. How the 1979 Cowboys did not get to the Super Bowl under Staubach is the real mystery.
2 best coaches for Dallas Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson
And fucking years later, he did the same damn thing to Jimmie Johnson
For the Cowboys fans who have followed the team since the 70's... the worst mistake is Jerry Jones being the owner... His legacy is not winning the Superbowl "SINCE 1996"... My God what a shame... The big question is this: how is it possible that a team that has not win the Superbowl in 26 years is one of the most expensive franchises in world sports? The answer is in Jerry Jones and Las Vegas... the real business of this guy...
"There are 500 coaches who could win with the cowboys" bet he regrets saying that in front of Jimmy more than anything. jerry has fired or run off more Super Bowl winning coaches than any man in the history of the nfl.
Better late than never I guess, even if the other person isn't around anymore. Personally, after 30 years, it all sounds disingenuous anyway. Plain and simple, Tom Landry and Tex Schramm deserved better...period! They sure as hell didn't get it 30 years ago.
Fact. Landry almost bankrupted Cowboys in 1985 and he should been fired in 1985 when he was suppose to retire then changed his mind after new coach had been hired.
Besides having cheerleader problems, voyeuristic employee problems, and Jerry's OWN problems involving women in elevators, Jerry obviously will be having even more problems to deal with after he fires McCarthy to abide by the demands of the National Black Lawyers Association, the NAACP, Roger Goodell, ABCNBCCBSCNNESPN, and various other forms of the Politically Correct Police to hire what will be the Dallas Cowboys first-ever black head coach.🏈
I totally get he should've handle the Landry situation differently...but his biggest regret should be not keeping his ego in check and letting Jimmy Johnson get away. I fully believe had Johnson been there for at least another 12-14 years, the Cowboys would've been in 5-6 more Supper Bowls and probably win at least 3 of them....if not 4 or more.
Jerry Jones Biggest regret is not having more hours in the day to hear himself talk
February 25 , 1989 was like a funeral for Tex Schramm
I say we bring back Romo as head coaxh. Dak and Zeke will be willing ti take a hit if comes back. Not sure if Garnett got a new contract
We?
Who is Garnett???
I think Jerry turned a corner in 2019 with the prodding of his son Stephen .He made the right moves by cleaning house with the coaching staff at the end of the season ,except OC Kellen Moore and hired Mike McCarthy ,Rams ST coach Bones Fassel ,and eventually hiring Dan Quinn as DC. Cowboys have one of the best scouts in Will McClay .
Things are paying off in 2021 .They are a legit contender for the Super Bowl and don't be surprised if they are representing the NFC in February
Pretty much turned out like everyone else saw it would. The problem with the Cowboys is Jerry Jones.
What a PR nightmare, one needed to take chsrge back in February 1989.
Drafting Randy Gregory?
I stopped being a cowboy fan when Tom Landry was fired & I haven't followed the game since.
The past is past...the future is now...
Letting Jimmy Johnson go and turning a 5-6 time Super Bowl championship team into a 3 time Super Bowl Championship team..
Jones has been a wreck of an owner. Disgraceful firing of Landry. Stupid falling out with Johnson. Horrible GM. Etc, etc.
jerry jones now is feeling the wrath of Tom Landry.. the short term looks great.. but the long term well let’s see how it plays out… rip Tom Landry. from a beloved Giants fan. we missed u then and now more than ever. God Bless..A Total CLASS ACT…👍🏻🙏🏻🌹
Tom Landry was fired by a press release. He was informed he had lost his job by a reporter. Jerry should be ashamed. The Cowboys lost a few fans that day, myself included.
Always Capt.Hindsight that one.
They had 29 yrs, got paid very well. They did not want a sent off, they wanted to remain. I was there, I know.
Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson biggest regret for Jerry Jones.
Hiring Jerry Jones as GM?
The Cowboys are back 🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🔥🔥🔥🔥🏆🥇
No his biggest regret will be Moore as our OC
Give him a break! He hasn't even call a play.
Give him a break please have you ever seen him play my point if you cant call an audiabl how can you call a play this is for real cowboys fan get the fuck off my post
Dallas Cowboys, all hat and no cattle.
Hiring Jason Garrett?
It is a struggle to remain a Cowboys fan.
Struggle? Ha! Try following the Lions your whole life. I am old (52) and I have seen only one playoff win. I gave up 15 years ago.
He definitely handled the Tom Landry firing very poorly but his running off Jimmy Johnson was his biggest mistake and it cost us at least one Super Bowl if not three.
I'll take care of your Cowboys when it's time
Tony Romo, the most talented QB the Cowboys have ever had. If only JJ had assembled a decent defense and a decent RB for him to have a chance to succeed. Towards the end of his career he finally had a good O line, but the first few years he ran for his life!
Marion Barber and Demarco Murray were better than decent.
Well. Third most talented. He was more talented than Dak has been.
That shouldn't have been Jerry's responsibility
Well, when you have a father and son playing fantasy football front office - who no other NFL team would hire for their self-appointed positions - you're going to come up short. Why? Because you didn't earn those roles. You bought them.
It is so clearly the Jimmie Johnson firing and then his petty feud with him after for not putting him in the ring of honor.
Jerry boy!
Jerry Jones saved the cowboys from Tom Landry disaster which started in 1985 when team was close to bankrupt .
Why the fuck can’t you be like this now
He regrets talking too much and losing Jimmy Johnson and then not putting him in the ring of honor. But his ego won’t let him correct this.
Here is Jerry's problem in a nut shell. IF?, he thought it would go over. He would yank that star off the side of the helmet. Put his face in place of it and call them the Jerry's..... he would. He sure would.
Biggest regret should be throwing out the stupid ass idea for a cap. We could've won 30 Super Bowls by now
Thank you Jesus! I ❤️ my Cowboys #1 🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏆🥇🔥🔥🔥
Got rid of so many great coaches, Landry, johnson, Parcells and let payton walk
This is the man who ruined Tony Roma’s career and is doing the same for Dak Prescott right now.
Maybe next yr guys
I knew it was Tom Landry before it played the video and huge mistake when letting jimmy Johnson go and hiring Switzer GO COWBOYS SILVER BULLETS SIXTH RING BOUND SEEKERS
He fired Tom Laundry the legend..
Bring back coach Romo
I want to hear Dylan I’m so glad to hear if you say it’s me to do who do you wanna do better where is the baby I am on messy cause I was wrong yeah way to go right to Manor North goes I was reading your friends
Cowboys!!! Ye!!
Firing Landry. Making Jimmy go away. And he could've closed the shades last year in the brief playoffs?
I lost respect for the Cowboys and Jerry when he did that to Tom Landry! Jerry did what he wanted and intended to do then. No words now can change the truth of then.
Biggest regret getting dak Prescott lol
PA
You're a dumb fuck
JERRY JONES: REGRETS ALOTTA THINGS SINCE BECOMING THE G.M.
THE COWBOYS: REGRET SELLING THE TEAM TOO JERRY JONES
To Jerry Jones
@@TL2354 GET A LIFE
I never eat At Mia's on Lemmon Ave since.feb 1989.
jones buying the biggest franchise as a new owner, he had to come in and get rid of all the old guard. tex and landry needed to go, or he wouldn't get respect.
#HOWBOUTDEMCOWBOYS!!!!
I have a feeling the Cowboys are going to finish 6-10 in 2019 .
Garrett is still HC , an unproven backup QB coach is OC , and they still have needs in critical areas
Yeah Jimmy left due to Jerry but if Jerry didnt have an ego the size of Texas and sat in the office like a good owner Jimmy wouldnt have had a reason to leave. The man literally builds you a dynasty in 4 years and you cant shut your hole for 5 minutes? I truly feel that if Jimmy had stayed they would have not only won at least 4 consecutive Superbowls but they would have been an even bigger threat for the past 30 years with more Superbowl wins. Jerry has already stated the issue with Jimmy was his biggest regret. Jerry needs to shut up and be a check writer and keep his ass off the field and off the tv.
