- Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young joins the Dan Patrick Show and discusses what the problems are that have plagued the Dallas Cowboys for the last 20 or so years

Howie Long said it best. When he went to AT&T Stadium to conduct interviews, he described it as a Carnival or a Festival scene. When he went to Gillette Stadium in Foxboro to conduct interviews a couple of years ago, you could hear a pin drop in the hallways. It was all about Football and nothing else throughout Gillette Stadium. "That's the best way I can describe it about the Cowboys problem" said Howie.
Ex Plus!
yo point?
As a Cowboys fan I totally agree with Steve Young
A little college cheesyness but I totally get what he's saying.
Cowboys need a white QB not a black African fella 😳🚬
Well that's partly true. But just understand Jimmy Johnson was one most innovative coaches the NFL has seen. His thinking on smart, fast, and tough players change the game of football. But if you look at what Jerry Jones hasn't taken a chance on hiring a young innovative coach. That is why I was surprised when the Miami Dolphins hired head coach Mike McDaniel. He turned Tua Tagovailoa into the league leading passer.
And yet without Aikman, Emmitt, and Irvin, he cratered in Miami and was driven into retirement. There’s zero proof he could win big in the salary cap era.
Duh, he we doh! He we doh!
As a long time cowboy fan, Steve is absolutely right! The cowboys are soft and have an entitlement issue. They’re too “Hollywood” and unfocused.
Jesus christ he just broke down dallas the best most simple realest way ive ever heard on tv. Crazy because its all so simple. Not this.... wich coach/QB will get us to the promise land bs they spew.
Steve just did a 🎤 drop!! 💯% the truth!! As a lifelong Cowboys fan I've been feeling this way for years!!
@@Scooby1984 well said
@@fasttime823 exactly! They’re a bunch of spoiled brats. They’re not disciplined at all.
Don't use the Lord's name in vain!
Steve is 100000% correct. These guys come thinking they’re entitled without doing a damn thing. And real football teams kick their ass every year
Steve said what A LOT of people are afraid to say
And that’s why us fans from teams in flyover states love watching them lose.
Steve Young is totally right, and this is a Cowboys fan saying it. Steve Young's 49ers faced the last Cowboys teams that were fully committed to winning and doing ALL that entails. Jerry Jones, while well intentioned, is not capable of admitting he is the problem and stepping back...and if he hasn't done it for 30 years, there's only one thing that will pry the team from his clutches...and then we have to look forward to the apple that probably won't fall far from the tree.
Jerry Jones has filled the void that Al Davis left behind - a once-innovative owner who helped transform the game, but who’s ego can’t let them accept that their time has passed
damn straight
Insightful and correct.
I agree completely and thought the same for years...but with one difference. They got old and were unwilling to keep changing, keep innovating. Ego got in the way of making winning first.
Dan Snyder of Washington Football & FedEX is right up there.
Facts
Jimmy Johnson rebuilt that organization in 5 years and Jerry spent the next 30 destroying it🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣and raise your hands if you think Jimmy Johnson would have drafted Quincy Carter.
Yeah.
but they are still a good football team???????? the only thing that any of you and steve young got right is that the coach has to demand the respect of the team.....if dak feels that he is always safe, and that if they dont win the coach will be fired....dak should be bemched when he plays like shit and let cooper rush play....or let trey lance challenge for the starting job???? he needs to be held accountable too!!!!!!!!!!!! bill parcells jimmy johnson were the only coaches that would top jerry!!!!!!! bill belicheck would be that guy.....pete carroll would work too
@@davecotant9186good at beating bad teams bad at winning against good teams
@@walterhervas8064 no thats not correct...that's not fact.....that's an assumption
The reason Jimmy succeeded where all others have failed was he ran the team and made it clear to Jerry or he was out of there.
What most Cowboys fans don't realize is the incredible head start that Jimmy had when he became the HC. Michael Irvin was already on the team, they had three Pro Bowl players on the OL, Troy Aikman was dropped into their lap, and there were Pro Bowl players on defense.
BUT, the thing that really turned the tide was Herschel Walker who turned into 11 draft picks. Johnson knew talent, Jones doesn't. In 35 years, Dak Prescott is the only QB that Jones drafted that could stick on an NFL roster.
The 2 most important problems. STEVE nailed it. 1.Jerry Jones power 2. They already have the star and all the accolades from being on the team. No incentive to win
As a 53 year Cowboys fan, What Steve just said is Brilliant. Earn your star(s). As a player, they are a part of a storied franchise, but they have to prove they are a part of the dynasty and earn the Stars and respect. Out on the field work your a** off and play as a team and have a leader like Landry and Johnson that commanded respect. Bravo Steve!
Then the Cowboys helmets will have no Stars period 😂
Problem is Jerry Jones wants all the credit. He fires coaches how are great leaders.
It’s a great point. And Steve would know, he played against the last version of the Cowboys that were deserving of the star. It’s the difference between Dallas and the rest of the league. Take the Niners for instance. They’re currently better statistically in many ways than the legendary Niner teams of the 80s and 90s, but my feeling is none of the current roster would dare have the audacity to rank themselves among those 80s and 90s rosters - they’re too humble. Until they win a few more Lombardis, don’t even think about going there. Dallas on the other hand seems to have no problem riding the coattails of the Aikman/Smith/Irvin/Johnson Cowboys teams while not performing anywhere near the level of those teams because they all wear the star so that makes them equal or something? I’ll never understand it.
Jason Garrett implemented this is training camp. You had to earn your star. Obviously, it didn't go through to the full season. Everything I hear from inside the organization counters what those outside the organization say about Jerry, so I feel that perception could be wrong (Jerry doesn't dictate everything - it's a joint venture with coaches, Will, Stephen & Jerry). Everything else, sure feels right though. From the roller coaster years under Garrett to the season success of McCarthy and abject failure in the playoffs of McCarthy, something is really wrong with the organization.
@@ForzaMilan-di2zdDid you see Jimmy Johnson @ the 1/2 time show? He was angry & livid with the Dallas players!
Nailed it…it is hard to blame the coach if he isn’t empowered to do the job…
Coaches don't need owner approval or power given them in order to get in players faces and tell them to get their shit together! Coaches need to stop looking lost and disappointed on the sideline and never say anything to the players who screw up! Jimmy Johnson sat your A$$ on the bench if you did not do your job or if you were getting penalties called on you....
@@JEFFQUICKLE9 You sure jerry Jones doesnt have his nose into everything?
But he took the job right?
@@matthewmaning4859 Jerry said that IF the GM was not himself he fire them LOL.
@@JEFFQUICKLE9Cowboys can't win with a black African fella and the numbers don't lie get a white QB and let the white rifle fly 😮🚬
i agree with Steve Young 100%. It's about the glory these players receive but haven't earned it. I was talking to my 20 year old daughter about exactly this. Players believe they are stars just because they have been drafted or have played for the cowboys. I agree with everything he says. In addition, they get paid way to much without having to earn it. They get paid upfront and the results don't matter. payment upfront has already been received.
The owner,coach, and quarterback 😊!
What a great observation. I know everyone says this about the Cowboys but coming from someone (Steve Young) who was elite and played them when they were elite, awesome points,
Perfectly well said by Steve Young!!!
I love Steve’s chuckles at the beginning.. he was probably enjoying the eagles and cowboys game just like us Niners fans
I laughed too 😂
Steve hit it right on the nose! It took me 10 years in my business to realize I couldn't let employees come directly to me about their problems. I had to let the managers manage...
Basic management 101
Can I get some money
@@jobturkeySee your manager.
On point Steve Young. Well said, and does explain why this is gone on for so long over many players and coaches.
Well said Steve!
Funny thing, I saw this post and I immediately asked myself, why is Steve Young even addressing this topic. However, he hit the nail on the head. Great job Steve!
Thank you Steve! You hit the nail right on the head. Jerruh's ego won't let him give up control🤬
Steve “ hit the nail on the head “ Very well said 👏 And I agree 100 % , as a long time Cowboys fan the truth hurts .
Cowboys fan here! Steve is absolutely RIGHT!
Spot on Steve.
💯 this. I’ve been a fan since 1976 and I’m at the end of my rope. I’m so tired of Jerruh’s failures as a leader. He is more about marketing and less about football.
I totally agree with Steve and I am not a San Francisco 49er fan but I don’t think there’s anyone that has nailed it better than Steve…
Best insight I have heard yet. I grew up in Dallas.
Steve Young has voiced the exact 2 problems with Cowboys. They’re not accountable to a “totally-in-charge” coach and they’re self-entitled making them not “hungry.”
Steve nailed it
Steve spitting out facts.
He starting laughing at the question before he said one word 😂
As a long time Niners fan and a huge Steve Young fan, I love hearing Steve's insight on current NFL issues. The Cowboys play in a fairly soft division, which gets them to the playoffs where they meet better teams and consistently lose in the first round.
Imagine going to every bar, strip club, or social setting as a player for the Cowboys and being told you're a superstar it would go to my head after the third telling.
Thats there problem I keep telling people this you are so right 😂😂😂😂
Steve Young, absolutely nailed it!!!
Steve is spot on
Good for Steve Young... the first who has the character to say what the root of the problem is with the Cowboys... the idiot of Jerry Jones... He is the "constant" in decades now of humiliation.... good interview... hope you pass this to many Cowboys fans who deserve another people runing the show...
Steve Young is 100% spot on, but Aikman said years back when you go from one head coach to another and it doesn't fix the problem, then you start at the very top. Both two great guys and former QB's
This needs to repeated often. The only constant in all of their losing years has been Jerry Jones and his ego. Nobody since Jimmy Johnson and Landry has had the actual ability to coach the team. And I love the stars on the helmet idea even better. It would be a great idea for all of the members of the team to have to wear their true colors. If you don't have any stars, don't be surprised if you are not there next year. Absolutely Love it.
Right on. In New England players are told to leave their egos at the front door.
Very well said Steve
Ben a cowboy fan since beginning and lots of truth in what you said
You guys are right on the head with this man the last coach that was the coach in Dallas was Jimmy Johnson Jerry Jones has taken over everything since that point and it's been downhill I love my cowboys but it's getting very hard to deal with this every year the same thing good but not good enough go Blue
Great explanation by Steve.
Jerry controls the team as long as he is alive. In other words, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Jerry quietly gave up his GM duties to Will McClay a while ago. But he retains the title and pretends to still be GM.
@@MountainMan.Yea and that’s why they are as talented with players as they are. But it’s Jerry who has created this culture over the last 3 decades. Coaches and players come and go but they keep falling short. There is only one consistent thing for all those years. Jerry.
Dak has a history of dissolving when the bright lights come on, enough with him already, he is what he is, not worth a new contract. And I agree with Steve Young, these cowboy teams have been undisciplined, no accountability. Grown ass men with money but no loyalty and accountability to the franchise, CLEAN HOUSE!
You must have a hearing problem I don't care what quarterback the Cowboys get they are not winning shit until Jerry moves out of the way 28 years worth of quarterbacks and coaches and the same result get a grip man even when shit is laid bare for you all you want to talk about is the quarterback😂😂😂😂 delusional fan base😂😂😂😂
I know one thing. We have to clean up our rush defense. Our defense was garbage. The secondary wasn't too bad. But giving up the run, that made me irritated. Everyone keeps blaming Dak. Dak Prescott is trying. He's not really the problem. I still believe in him, no doubt. He beat two elite quarterbacks in his playoff record career, Russell Wilson, whom I respect very much and Tom Brady, whom we know as the GOAT. He needs to use his legs at the right time and don't do too much like someone told me. Jerry Jones needs to give up being GM, Chairman and President of the Dallas Cowboys and just focus ONLY on the marketing department of leadership and get some competent leaders for GM and Chairman.
Mr. Young is spot on!! Everyone who is a Dallas fan needs to hear this and act accordingly. This team is way to talented to perform this way.
Steve Young hit the mark, hands down!!!! As long as Jerry Jones is alive, there is no hope for another championship ring!!!!
same with stephen he thinks he has played foot ball before or even understands football.
Steve hit the nail right on the head.
Couldn't agree more Steve.
Spot on Steve Young!
Great job 👏 👍
Full reboot !!! All the way !! No one stays !
Finally, someone says what the true problem is with the Cowboys.
Great advice
Steve is right on point. 👍🏻
Well said Steve! DC4L!
Steve you nailed it
Steve Young is absolutely right. It was a privilege and a honor playing his Niners back in the day, win or lose. The man is absolutely correct.
- Cowboys fan since 1970’s.
Love Steve
Excellent points Steve!
You should be coaching.
Steve is the Man
You are exactly right Steve
Steve Young is SHARP!
You nailed it, Steve! From day 1 of training camp, it's Super Bowl, Super Bowl, Super Bowl. Especially the media. You're exactly right when you said when they get punched in the mouth, it's like I'm a cowboy. This can't happen and they quit.
Asa Cowboys fan, Steve you are absolutely true….well said 👍
I’ve said this for years. Jerry Jones is the problem. What’s the one thing that hasn’t changed in 30 years? Jerry! Ding ding ding. Ever 5 years it’s clean house! New coach! New receivers! New linebackers! Remember when Jason Garrett was fired and Jerry Jones cleaned house? Literally!! Haha well we are getting the same result. And people are shocked. It’s really not that complicated. When you have an owner who sticks his nose in the business like Jerry does and is constantly talking about the Dallas Cowboys as if they are still Americas team and how wearing the star means something- well it doesn’t! This guy is spot on
That STAR on the helmet doesn’t make you an automatic winner! Great comment from Steve👊🏽💥
Steve Young is spot on!!!! the head Coach is not empowdered!!!!
Steve is absolutely 💯 correct we need a coach with power and can motivate jimmy Johnson will never be replaced 😢😢😢
Steve on point.
When they are cashing enormous checks, removing the Star will not make a difference. Tougher head Coach and a real GM.
Well said Steve Young.
As many of us Cowboys fans have said. I totally agree with Steve Young.
Sir I am a cowboy fan and your absolutely correct
Exactly what I've been saying for years and years. Even during the Campo years they acted as if they were already champions and they SUCKED! But because of their heritage they believed they were entitled to the Division Title, getting to the Conference Title Game, and being crowned as Super Bowl Champs without the sweat, the tears, the blood. No determination, no fortitude, no heart. And it's gonna stay that way until Jerrah passes on or his son kicks him out and gets some people who have the authority to do what needs to be done to win.
As an international consultant and soon retired, I agree totally with what Steve Young is saying, almost verbatim.
I could not agree with Steve more
Steve Young you are 100%%%%% correct. Take the stars off until they win playoff games and you don't get two stars until you get to championship game. Excellent idea
Spot on about the Cowboys
Perfectly said
50 year Cowboys fan. Also a Steve Young fan. He's not 100% spot on, but close. There's always going to be a percentage of joy he takes from the Cowboys' struggles given his history. But, it does come down to attitude and last weekend was the first time I really felt the team was shocked that an opposing team rolled into Dallas for a post season game without the appropriate awe and respect for the star. There seemed to be a reaction stemming from a certain sense of entitlement or at least expectation that they were so much better than GB..
Jimmy walked because Jerry Jones infringed on the sanctity of his locker room by bringing Bandar in during his post-game speech. It basically took one incident to end a dynasty. History has proven Jimmy was right and the team will never win another championship until ownership or control of the locker room changes. Watching the rest of the league perform over the weekend, you could see how badly most wanted to win by their effort ... except the Eagles, from which I take some solace.
103 year old... forgot what i was gonna say
Steve Young is preaching! No lies detected!
I totally agree with you, and I'm a die-hard cowboys fan
This is experience, insight and wisdom talking, thanks Steve. Oh, by the way don’t they have sunlight in Utah?
Best analogy of the Cowboys I`ve heard. I was sucked back in after 25 years of not giving 2 shits if they won or lost. I watched every Superbowl Dallas every played and thought this might be the year. I feel like my guts have been yanked from my soul and stomped on after the Green Bay game. .
I'm a life ling Cowboys Fan and I agree with Steve Young
Well said
America's Team Dallas Cowboys Loyal for Ever... Por Vida!!! True Blue Steve
The NFL would never allow the Boys to start the season without stars on their helmet, however when Bill Parcell was coaching them, in training camp all the rookies and first year guys did wear helmets without the stars on them in camp .Parcels said that they had to earn the stars.
Maybe they could have little stars and graduate to big ones
This is the best interpretation of what's fundamentally wrong with Dallas!!! Shhhhhhh I make money every year in January betting against Dallas. I'm a Cowboys fan too. As long as Jerry is alive it won't change. Thanks Jerry I made another 1000 this year
exactly and im a cowboys fan
I agree with you 💯 percent
Steve…. Your words are exactly what I have been saying for years and years and years. Just because you are a Dallas Cowboy…..it doesn’t mean $hit….you haven’t earned anything. As for Jerry…..he is his own worst enemy.
WOW! as a Cowboys fan no truer words spoken than that of HOFer Steve Young. That last line tho.... "No one cares anymore" Stellar statement.... Unfortunately Jerry doesnt care .... his way til he passes away
"the rest of the league doesn't care' That's an understatement . The eagles played like they feel they don't belong in the playoffs . they looked beat before that game even started
He is spot on!!!!! No coach since Jimmy has been empowered. Jerry has been playing with his team and thinking that just because they are the Cowboys and have a rich history that they are special. Jerry has an entitlement problem. He's a good owner marketing his team, and has drafted fairly well...but HE is the problem. He's in the way and always will be so until that changes, us Cowboy fans can expect the same outcome season after season.
I don’t buy into the Jerry jones excuse. I DO believe in the players thinking all they have to do is show up and they will win.
10 or so years ago it was Romo telling the reporters, “look, this team will be in the Super Bowl” like just because they’re the cowboys?.. or now McCarthy saying they expect to win….why?.? The packers didn’t expect to win. They knew it would take every single one of them giving their absolute best effort to win.
Great question! I was wondering myself. The NFC East is in shock this year.
Nailed it!
I'm a simple man. I see Steve Young on, I watch.
Thanks Steve for explaining the disease within this organization. It was hard to put a finger on it.
Thank you #8 ❤
I really like that star sticker idea.
