Dallas are set to miss the playoffs for the seventh time in nine seasons. And the problems start at the top with the team’s notorious owner
Who could have imagined in 2016 where we’d be now?

The Cowboys – a team valued at $4.8bn – are in all sorts of turmoil. Last Monday’s loss at home to the Titans served as an example to all that’s been endemic during the Jerry Jones-Jason Garrett era: incompetence. incompetence in their roster construction. incompetence in their gameplans. incompetence in their belief that some hallowed Cowboy Way is the only way.
