SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Jerry Jones strolled down the Levi's Stadium tunnel in his dark overcoat, a hitch in the 80-year-old's step and a sniffle in his voice.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott walks off the field after an NFL divisional round playoff football game against the San Francisco 49ers in Santa Clara, Calif., Sunday, Jan. 22, 2023. SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Jerry Jones strolled down the Levi’s Stadium tunnel in his dark overcoat, a hitch in the 80-year-old’s step and a sniffle in his voice.
“Hundreds of thousands of Cowboys fans,” Jones continued, were sick — a sentiment Twitter mentions confirmed in spades. The game’s ending was “eerie” in its similarity to last season’s playoff loss, Jones told a handful of reporters as he strode toward the buses. This Cowboys exit came on the road in the divisional round; last year’s unfolded at home on wild-card weekend.
The Cowboys defense stifled San Francisco’s progress, but even so the short field start set up an easy 26-yard field goal. Some giveaways resembled weird flukes with the balls, bounces that other quarterbacks might see fall to the ground seemingly landing in opponents’ hands after a tip, the Cowboys felt. Prescott made no mistakes in a spectacular wild-card round in which he accounted for five total touchdowns against the Tampa Bay Bucs.
