Dallas Cowboys fall to 2-3 after a 24-16 Week 5 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Analyst Colin Cowherd believes the team's poor performance stems from Jerry Jones' decision to "go cheap" on the coaching staff. In an episode of "The Herd," Cowherd criticized Jones for not spending money on competent coaches, despite lavish spending on other aspects of the team.
He pointed out that Jones overpaid for key players like quarterbacks, defensive tackles, and wide receivers, but refused to do the same for the coaching staff. "In a salary cap league, there's a ceiling, right? There's two places where you can spend all you want, and it doesn't count against the cap," Cowherd said. "Coaching staffs and front offices.
Head coaches and GMs. And the Cowboys go cheap on those." Cowherd believes that strong coaches challenge their bosses, but Jerry Jones doesn't like pushback. He argued that the Cowboys' approach to building the organization is different from the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers, and that Jones needs to change his strategy soon. The Cowboys will face the Green Bay Packers in Week 6.
