If you don't want a meddling owner, don't go to Dallas, or Oakland. Seems Jones left Parcells alone for a year or two, then he couldn't resist touching the thing. Who brought in TO? Jones. Jones backed off on his promise to Parcells, Bill hooked em and left. Now for $4 mil. a year, maybe you don't mind being abused for a few years. See Gailey. But you won't win, if you hire a coach willing to be bullied by the owner. At first Jones probably left J. Johnson alone because he was a newbie, and as he began to think he could make a move, he clashed with Johnson. Then he wanted coaches he could overrule, but he got bad teams. Then he got a coach he said had control, mostly gave it to him, but slowly began to seep back into the operation. What's in the future? He'll seep into the operation. Dallas is starting to look like Oakland.
