Until Thursday, Jerry Jones’ incompetence was reserved for Netflix.
The documentary “America’s Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys” painted the Cowboys owner in a glowing light, to the point where he continues to laughably take credit for the Herschel Walker trade. The last few episodes gloss over the team’s staggering spiral. They have not been to an NFC Championship Game since 1996.
So, when Jones traded Micah Parsons to the Packers, it made me think of Dick Monfort. This is what happens when an owner functions as the official or quasi-general manager.
