Stephen Jones on Cowboys' loss to Saints: 'We never saw that coming'

The Cowboys’ executive vice president spoke on The Fan about the team’s shocking rout at the hands of New Orleans.

Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer looks on from the sidelines during the second half of an NFL football game against the New Orleans Saints at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024, in Arlington.. “But that happens in this league. I mean, they pay their guys too, and things can happen. The good news is, it’s early, and we’re 1-1, lot of football to play.”

Jones spoke about the loss and what it says about the team while reiterating his support for defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer. Here are some highlights, edited for length and clarity: “Coach Zimmer, obviously, that was a tough outing yesterday for the defense, in terms of how the Saints executed. And hats off to them. The younger Kubiak did a real nice job there for the Saints, and they executed and were pretty much flawless on their first six possessions. So those are things that we’ve got to tighten up and got to go to work, and and I’m confident that that we’ll get the job done.
