One of the human beings most qualified to criticize Jerry Jones' management of the Cowboys is doing just that.
Fox NFL analyst Troy Aikman, who in 2006 was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a result of his 12-year career as Dallas' quarterback, naturally was asked Wednesday about the struggling Cowboys during his weekly radio spot on KTCK The Ticket in Dallas. When speaking his way through the myriad of issues plaguing the team that has lost three of its last for games, Aikman, brought up the disconnect in Jones' messaging at it relates to that of coach Jason Garrett.
"We've got a head coach who we know for 10 years has been saying, ‘We’re focused on Tuesday. Today. That’s all we’re worried about is having the best practice today that we can possibly have,’" Aikman said. "And that's been his messaging throughout, and the owner’s talking about getting on a run and winning the Super Bowl."
Added Aikman on that subject: "You’ve got a head coach who comes down and says we're going to evaluate the kicker, and then the front office says right after that — probably in a press conference right outside the locker room — that they weren't evaluating the kicker. All those things have an impact, and it slowly trickles down."
