Jerry Jones wasn't happy after the Cowboys lost by 38... on his birthday.
The Detroit Lions marched into AT&T Stadium and served a whooping to the Cowboys. Jones wasn't pleased in the aftermath.
When asked about the 47–9 defeat, Jones called his team's performance "very concerning" and "very humbling." Dallas has struggled massively at home, losing its 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 loss 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 facet of the game, holding Dallas to a measly 53 rushing yards. It's the first time since 2022 that the Cowboys failed to score a single touchdown in a game. They'll 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.Karl Rasmussen is a staff writer for the Breaking and Trending News team for Sports Illustrated.
