Paul Finebaum Says Cowboys Job Would Be 'Easier' For Deion Sanders Than Colorado

“It makes more sense with the Cowboys really than it did even at Colorado because in some ways, it’s an easier job,” Finebaum said. “I know that sounds ridiculous. But what he’s had to overcome at Colorado, to get them in a situation where we’re talking about them a conference champion or maybe even a CFP entrant is really spectacular and one of the craziest stories I’ve ever seen.”

“Not only does he help the locker room, he might be the only person in America that Jerry Jones will listen to,” he said. “And that’s the most important thing. Yes, he relies on his son, but he would also look at Deion as his other son. And I think that could be the ticket.

“We all know the glitz and the glamour of the most valuable franchise in sports. You put Deion in there, not only as the centerpiece of that, put some great coaches around him, which obviously would have to happen and let Jerry pay attention to someone other than himself.”
