EVERYONE knows that, and the #1 reason why in my opinion was his eye for true talent. Even with that, he then brought out the best in them. That is a killer combo, absolute domination. Think about any other coaches and owners who brought on some superstar players that never worked out that should tell you enough how special Jimmy really was.
You have to wonder what Jimmy would have done with future draft picks; he would have won 4 straight…imo. His discipline was missed by the team the very next year.
Two egos that ruined what could’ve been the greatest dynasty. The great Bill Walsh predicted they would never have the same success without each other that they had with each other. Turned out to be prophetic.
And it is embarrassing too. I feel bad for the fans who have never experienced a championship. Believe me it is quite dramatic when you do win. You can walk around with your head a little higher, feel good about yourself and buy more championship memorabilia !
i think Jerry needs to hire someone to run the organization a lot of the coaches are quite capable but the problem is management other wise Jerry Jones
@@tlhamp0it’s like selling your soul to the devil Mike McCarthy now in the best coach since Jimmy Johnson but all the credit has to be given to Jerry Jones. They day he is gone I think Dallas is closer to it’s old winning days and then they will have to hire a real GM like all of the other franchises have done and actually have real chance to win.
Jerry Jones, since losing the main players that Jimmy put together, has won two playoff games (since 1996), no NFC Championship games, and no Super Bowls. Meanwhile, he conned the city of Arlington into building him a massive stadium, and making him (not the city) and ton of money. He gets a plaque in the NFL Hall of Fame. He is the perfect example of how mediocrity can get you a plaque in the Hall of Fame. It makes me sick that this Arkansas Hillbilly has done to tarnish the great organization Dallas once was. Pitiful!
@@jamesvolpe3581but who fired Jimmy and then said he could a "million guys" to coach this team. How's that worked out for the past 28 years? He continues to make decisions that he alone believes will benefit the team. There are reasons why Dallas has gone from dynasty to mediocrity, and all of them have to do with him.
Fast forward close to 3 decades later and Jerry Jones has received just what he deserves. HE screwed himself and every Cowboys fan. I knew that in 1994 as much as today. Sadly, Cowboys fortunes won't change until Jerr'ah is six feet under. He and his EGO.
I think all these years later Jerry is asking himself the same thing as he pondered that in a press conference this past training camp. Great Managers hire great people to do a job, do what they do best and get out out their way. It worked well in Dallas for 29 years right? It worked well the next few years after that then it did not.
@BrahUAware, absolutely! Jimmy said it right here. He wanted control. I used to think it was just Jerry. But years later..alot was on Jimmy. He used to publicly disrespect Jerry. He didn't respect Jerry either
If I had the good fortune to own an NFL team and was then fortunate to have something as good as Jerry had with the 90’s Cowboys I would just sit back in my owners box, sip drinks, and enjoy it all. I’d let the football people do whatever they need and stay out of their way and just enjoy the wins. I like to think I’d be this way. But I guess NFL owners don’t become billionaires letting other people run the show.
Barry Switzer said it all: “We did it our way baby! We did it! We did it! We did it!” This is what it was all about for Jerry, doing it his weasel way!
Jerry has said that his third championship has been his more memorable, and NFL fans all know why. For every one else, it is always the first one that stands out, not that third one.
And the big winner was the San Francisco 49'ers. 500 coaches could win with the team that Jimmy Johnson was solely responsible for putting together from scratch. 500 owners could have won with that team as well.
Wasn't switzers fault dallas got behind 21-0 in the nfc championship. Aikman, Irvin and Kevin Williams screwed that up..Jimmy was overrated. There was no free agency or cap before jimmy left. Once he came back in the cap world with the dolphins, he got his ass kicked.
@@kevinjones8929 you are leaving something out Ole buddy. Look back to the very beginning. Who master minded the Herschel Walker trade? The Herschel Walker trade was the roots to all that success the Cowboys had through the 90's.
The 49ers added a lot of talent that offseason and the Cowboys continued losing players. Even Aikman said the team wasn’t as talented as it was in 92 or 93 and didn’t blame them losing in 94 on not having Jimmy.
If these guys had put their pride and ego aside, who knows how many in a row this team would have strung together….. But their PRIDE prevented any of us from ever knowing!
Brother, jerry the football idiot, taking credit for the Cowboys victories of the 90s is like taking credit for Michelangelo´s La Pietà when you were the one who bought the marble for him to carve! Jimmy should have been very proud of his work and his ''ego'' should be exactly where it was as a head coach. jerry's ego however.... should have limited itself to writing checks and shut up.
This is the biggest mistake of Jerry Jones life. Jimmy Johnson made him, and he broke him. The only reason they one another Super Bowl was because of Jimmy Johnson. Since the Jimmy Johnson team, Dallas has sucked. They have never been relevant since Jimmy Johnson brought them 3 Super Bowls.... That waste of space Barry Switzer got credit for Jimmy Johnson 3 Super Bowl...
I’m still not over it. Jerry Jones is excellent at what he did back then. Business man. Not General Manager. We’ve all seen how personal decisions worked out for Jerry after Jimmy left. I don’t understand why someone wouldn’t celebrate that dedication and production. Jones should have given Jimmy a raise after the 2nd SB. SMH.
When ego and pride run amok. There's no way you allow the type of coach and leader that Jimmy Johnson was, to leave the franchise after winning back 2 back superbowls! Do people understand how difficult it is to win 1? Buffalo had 4 straight opportunities and couldn't even get 1 to show for it. These guys won 2 in a row and were poised to contend for the rest of the decade with there best players coming into there prime (Aikman, Emmitt, Irvin, Woodson etc.) and Jerry basically lets him go.
Here we are in 2024 and Jerry Jones football prowess has added zero Super Bowl trophies to the Cowboys mantle. I do not count 1995-1996 because that was still Jimmy’s team. Sorry Barry.
Yet the cowboys fans think it’s still 1995. It’s crazy they still have fans that watch all the games and buy all the merch and enable Jerry still run the organization like his doing still and the same results keep happening it’s insanity.
Jimmy was not going to stay much longer anyway, as he had nothing more to do or prove. At best he may have stayed one more year, which is what I think he would have done, but things accelerated faster.
And he hasn’t came close to that Since Neil O Donnell was playing for the Steelers and literally gave him that 3rd Super Bowl but Neil O Donnell retried a long time ago.
Neil O Donnell gave them that last Super Bowl and that was a lucky win that night and they have had any luck since and won’t because God is telling Jerry Jones to retire.
Barry Switzer did not build a team he inherited it from Jimmy J and the players dug down deep to win it in 95 all players came together Jerry Jones is a PT Barnum of the NFL great business man but bad GM FOR 29 YEARS
See the part where switzer says to jerry we did it while holding the trophy after winning superbowl 30. Switzer goes for what he thinks is a friendly handshake and Jerry pulls the trophy out of his hands. Says alot about Jerruh.
This video does not mention contract issue. Jimmy wanted a raise (for performance). The T.B. Bucs owner contacted Jimmy Johnson (end of '93 season with Jimmy still working for Cowboys). Jerry livid and wouldn't budge on more money for Jimmy (back to back Super Bowl winning coach). Bad FOOTBALL decision for Jerr'ah.
Jerry Jones doesn’t have the ability to run a hot dog stand, let alone an NFL football team. For decades now he has been an ABSOLUTE FAILURE at trying to do that. He was even caught up in one of the greatest acts of DISLOYALTY (2nd only to the Patriots removing Tom Brady) ever witnessed in pro football, when he joined the chorus of Dallas fans and unceremoniously threw Tony Romo to the curb - even as Tony was completely healed and ready to return. DECADES OF FAILURE has been the mark of Jerry Jones. And DECADES MORE FAILURE is now his punishment.
@debbiebrantley61 he got lucky in oil, he has no talent or business acumen. He’s a dumb ass who lucked into all his wealth. He and his whole family are useless snakes.
The damn alcohol contributed to it too. Eat, drink, and be merry... in moderation. Otherwise, the damn alcohol makes you say the next day " I can't believe I said that".
13:42 In the biggest moments, this sicko has snatched the Lombardi away from every coach that's ever won anything for him. Jerry Jones is going to die like King Longshanks at the end of Braveheart.
@gskessingerable Always read the description so you know what's going on and where it all came from. Yes, it was 1994, but the TV program was from 1999, just as the description says.
Jerry Jones is his own worst enemy. Totally screwed everything up in Dallas,should of had 5 super bowls instead of 3. Jimmy was the reason they won.

Jerry can't get out of his own way he loves the media and limelight he doesn't know how to be an owner and stay out of the way and sign the checks

Thirty years later, Jerry has 4 wild card wins in the 21st century, Good job, Jerry.
