The Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had something to say on the franchise’s Super Bowl drought. He assured the fans that QB Dak Prescott will be better at turnovers from here on and also backed head coach Mike McCarthy.
“Focus on Dak being better. He’s right. He will be better at turnovers. Focus on that and focus on the coach that has come in here and in three years, had the results that we’ve had,” Jones said.

Jones then compared the time period since the Cowboys last lifted the Vince Lombardi trophy to that of the team that knocked them out this season, the San Francisco 49ers. He used the Niners’ example to defend his position as the team GM.
“I understand why, when you look back and say,’ well, the Cowboys and San Francisco haven’t been to the Super Bowl in 25 years. Okay, haven’t won the Super Bowl in 25 years. I understand that. San Francisco is in the same boat. But my point is, that hasn’t been the same in 25 years. There’s been many different things done over the 25 years. The same way had you changed the general manager,” the 80-year-old billionaire added.

The Cowboys fans are frustrated with the title drought. And Jones’ take just increased that a little bit.
The fans question Jones’ sanity
Fans of the Cowboys didn’t like Jerry Jones’ take on the franchise’s Super Bowl drought. Many fans said they don’t care about the Niners and just want to see their team win. Others called him too old to run the team.
This fan wants to see the Cowboys back in the big game and win.
We don’t care about the San Francisco situation. We care about the Dallas Cowboys and the Jones family getting us the players and the coaching staff to get back to you and win a Super Bowl.

Another fan wants Jones to step down as the Cowboys GM.
This man is too damn old to be running a team, let him own it and have all his money. Can’t run a team to save his life, at least Stephan is a little better but I still would like a real coach and gm to run the team.

For this fan, Dak Prescott is not a playoff winner.
Dak might get better, but he is not a playoff winner… he’s got the jitters, too nervous, just doesnt have the clutch winning gene….
