Jerry Jones didn't mince words after the Cowboys' blowout loss vs. the Lions
The Dallas Cowboys were embarrassed at home on Sunday in what ultimately wasn't a very happy birthday for Jerry Jones.
The Detroit Lions entered AT&T Stadium and served up a whooping for the Cowboys. Jones was not satisfied afterwards.
Asked about the 47-9 loss, Jones called his team's performance “very worrying” and “very humbling”.
“It was a shocker,” Jones said, via John Machota athletic.
Dallas has struggled greatly at home, losing the first three games at AT&T Stadium. Sunday's blowout against the Lions was tied for the fifth-largest margin of defeat in franchise history and the team's worst since 2010.
Detroit jumped out to a big lead in the first half and never took their foot off the gas. They dismantled the Cowboys in every aspect of the game, holding Dallas to 53 rushing yards. This is the first time since 2022 that the Cowboys have failed to score a touchdown in a game.
They will look to get back on track after their much-needed bye week. Their next game comes in Week 8 on the road against the San Francisco 49ers at Levi's Stadium. They don't return home until Nov. 10 for a rivalry showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10.
