Winning in the NFL is not easy, even if you are really good. Jerry has his positives and negatives, like we all do. You want the positives to outweigh the negatives.
Jerry as an owner is great, can't ask for a better owner. He is a leader of the NFL, has shaped the the NFL, he is not in the hall of fame for nothing. He provides top facilities for the players and fans, you know he pays the cheerleaders $75K a year? Before Jerry it was Bum Phillips and man was he boring as snot, terrible owner.
Jerry as a GM, ok here you can criticize...
Lets look at the positives. He is great at managing the cap. He is great at recruiting. He is great at day to day operations. And, he is getting better at his negatives..
Now his negatives, I put these it 2 categories: 1) Talent draft expert and 2) Coaching Space. On #1, he has got past this. He used to think he was talent expert, he now knows he is not, he has Will Mcclay leading this space and doing an great job, for years now.... On #2, this is Jerry's main problem. He has always wanted to lead the team, and that is not his job, that is the coaches job. Him trying to be the leader of the team undermines the coach's authority. He has gotten a lot better over the years, and you can thank is son Stephen for that. You do not see him on the side line any more talking to players or the coach...
If he can just step aside, and let the coach lead the team, I think he would be great. I think he is doing that last couple years.
