If Cowboys Think Big, Why Keep Phillips?
Jerry Jones built the world’s largest domed stadium, one with an exterior made of fritted glass and limestone rock, one that cost $1.3 billion and has a magnificent high-def screen hanging from one 20-yard line to the other, one with 3,000 LCD units and huge partitions that open in both end zones, one that charges $800,000 per year to lease a luxury suite and prices a pizza at $90 and a 12-pack of beer at $66 in those suites, one that has players enter the field through a sports bar with see-through walls and delirious fans, one that even includes a elaborate locker room for — ta da! — the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.

"Words just can’t explain how grateful we are for it. Each girl has her own locker like the players, with our own individual mirror, plugs and storage," gushes Cassie Trammell, a squad member.

And yet, though he constructs such a colossus and continues to proclaim the Cowboys as America’s Team 14 years since their last Super Bowl victory, Jones made a decision Monday that reflects comparatively smallish thinking. The owner/general manager, a dangerous combination in his case, will reportedly bring back Wade Phillips as coach for the 2010 season. This is akin to inventing the world’s sleekest automobile, then installing an 8-track tape player. And it confirms what we’ve known throughout a dry, maddening period in Cowboys history: That Jones would prefer to have an inferior coach whom he can puppeteer, one whose image never will be larger than his, than appoint a marquee name who can win a championship.

Had he gone to Bill Cowher with a promise — to stay out of the way, promote prize fights and rock concerts at his entertainment complex and spend games eating $90 pizzas instead of wandering down to the sideline — my guess is that the premier unemployed football coach on the planet would have signed immediately. But Jones’ massive ego never could handle relinquishing power, even when it has been established that he closely resembles a buffoon as a lead executive.The problem is that the Cowboys, under an elite coach named Jimmy Johnson, won consecutive Super Bowl titles, then a third under Barry Switzer two years later, not long after Jones purchased the franchise in 1989. Since then, Jones has convinced himself that he is the central reason for that dynasty, conveniently forgetting that his monster has won exactly one playoff game since 1996.

The fact the win came this postseason, in the wild-card round, was enough for Jones to retain Phillips. Never mind that this past Sunday, in the divisional round, the Cowboys were pummeled so convincingly by the Minnesota Vikings — 34-3 says it all — that it washed away all momentum gained from the previous few weeks. Never mind that the way Jones has structured the team’s coaching infrastructure, with Phillips responsible for the defense and Jason Garrett responsible for the offense, has trivialized the concept of Phillips as the head coach. Never mind that the lack of a leadership totem pole becomes an issue when Garrett needs a kick in the tail for not adjusting to the Vikings’ furious pass rush, for giving the ball to a plodding Marion Barber too much in the second quarter when Felix Jones had been so effective earlier, for not developing Tony Romo into a poised, savvy quarterback who can improvise his way out of pressure instead of dancing around haplessly like a drunk on Greenville Avenue.

Seems Jones painted himself into a corner by growing a little too excited the week before. That is when he hastily declared, "Can we all together on three say it? The demons are — what? — gone!" Yeah, gone for a week. If the Cowboys had eluded what would have been an NFL-record seventh consecutive postseason loss, they went on to Minnesota and extended a road playoff losing streak that has lasted 17 friggin’ years. To me, Jones is a fraud when it comes to the excessive hype of his franchise. He wants us to believe the Cowboys are the New York Yankees of pro football, that they are as popular as any sports team in the world, that he built a stadium worthy of their magnitude. Yet, on the field, he’s content simply to win his first playoff game in eons even after being blown out in the next game and failing to reach the NFC championship game. The Yankees don’t think this way. Manchester United and Real Madrid don’t think this way. They fire coaches and managers who don’t reach expectations.

Therefore, stop thinking of the Cowboys as America’s Team. You can’t represent an entire country when three U.S. presidents have served five terms since your last league championship. Shoot, you can’t represent an entire country when you’re barely the best NFL team in Texas, with the Houston Texans finally shedding their post-expansion rut to become very competitive. If Jones is pleased with Phillips — who now is 1-5 as a playoff coach with three teams, the first two of whom (Buffalo and San Diego) fired him — then he’s running nothing more than Mediocri

They are back where the Cowboys belong – out of the playoffs as America’s joke.

He’s not stupid and he looked at the situation and starting over right now does not help him win next year. He doesn’t want the gamble of even the slightest setback next year. Right now Jerry is all about next year.
