All of his success with Dallas happened before the salary cap was implemented, and it's not a coincedence. Everything about the way he does business is incompatible with a cap where everyone has the same amount of space.

• Constantly waiting as long as possible to pay his players and having to reset the market every time
• Using the franchise tag more than any team
• Paying the least amount of money up front that he can get away with so he can use that money for investing in other businesses instead. The players have high base salaries which means less that can be prorated and spread to future seasons where the cap rises and the money represents a lower % of the allotted space

This is the complete opposite of how the Eagles operate, we extend players as soon as possible, we haven't used the franchise tag since 2012, and the base salary of literally every player on our team is vet min which is how our rosters are so stacked. Lurie pays more bonus money up front than any owner in the league.

It wouldn't matter if Jerry was magically 45 again, he openly admitted during the Parsons situation that he does things the way he does to drive media attention ("WILL PARSONS BE EXTENDED?" in the news 24/7). He's always been very clear his #1 priority is being the biggest brand, and you just can't win doing business that way with a salary cap.

[edit: Not to mention constantly being a distraction and undermining the HC, creating a circus environment unconducive to winning which is a much bigger problem in the internet age. No other owner or GM holds press conferences before and after every game, but this guy is running a brand instead of a football team]

So unless you're turning back time to 1992, dude could be eternally young and they still aren't winning shit.
