NFL fans are teeing off on Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones over his peculiar definition of “all-in.”
After the Green Bay Packers crushed the Cowboys on Super Wild Card Weekend, Jerry Jones said his team would be “all-in” this offseason, according to the team’s official website.
But Dallas hasn’t made a single blockbuster trade or splash in free agency. They’ve seen several key contributors from 2023 depart, including offensive tackle Tyron Smith, running back Tony Pollard, center Tyler Biadasz, cornerback Stephon Gilmore and defensive ends Dorance Armstrong Jr. and Dante Fowler Jr.
Speaking to reporters, Jerry Jones reiterated that he’s “all-in” for 2024 without offering any clear-cut explanation, per Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team:
“I’m all-in. I’m all-in. Sometimes, being all-in means you narrow…you narrow it down to all we’re talking about is right now and the next playoff season. And that’s it for everybody, we’re all-in. We’re all-in. It’s all right there.”

NFL fans had a field day destroying Jerry Jones owner over his bizarre “all-in” discussion with reporters:
Jerry Jones faced mounting calls to fire Mike McCarthy after another early playoff elimination, but he gave the veteran head coach a fifth year on the job. Dallas received a big blow on the coaching staff when beloved defensive coordinator Dan Quinn left to take the Washington Commanders’ head coaching gig.
It’s not too late for Jones to make some “win-now” moves between now and Week 1, but the clock is ticking.
Jerry Jones Delivers Another Meal Of Word Salad
One of the main jobs for NFL owners, GMs and coaches is delivering “word salad” to fans and reporters. Few do that more often than Jones, who loves talking to the media and believes he’s offering more encouragement and optimism for his fans.
If Jones was really “all-in”, he would have made a significant move or two (or three, or four) by now to improve the roster. For some reason, Jones believes a team that has one playoff win over the last three years (despite three straight 12-win seasons) is in a good spot to make a Super Bowl run. Only this time, the roster is considerably weaker than the 2021, 2022 and 2023 groups.
