As I watch another former Pro Bowl/All-Pro Cowboys player depart with very little team success to show for his time in Dallas, it drives home a point that I hope the Jones Clan finally understands.
Jerry and co. love to cling to the notion that continuity is the key to success. IMO, that is the absolute worst mindset to have when it comes to professional football. After all, most in the business will tell you that NFL really stands for "Not For Long" because of the short careers, coaching turnover, etc.
In the NFL you have to be willing to strike while the iron is hot and be willing to make the decisions to maximize your chances of winning when your window opens.
The Cowboys have had some very talented rosters over the past decade, led by an Pro Bowl caliber QB. It's unacceptable for the heads of this organization to continually stick their heads in the sand and allow marginal head coaches to waste talent when those small windows of opportunity do open for us, but that's exactly what they do.
I've come to realize that continuity is just a buzzword that they've leaned on to excuse their lazy decision making.
