Jerry Jones didn’t have a great time watching his Cowboys get dismantled by the Lions on his 82nd birthday in Dallas. Having expected a turnaround every week from their three straight losses at home, the Cowboys extended their unwanted streak as the Lions ran away with a 47-9 victory to Detroit. This led to Jones having a meltdown on 105.3 The Fan when he was asked some hard-hitting questions. Since that explosive interview that showed the angry side of the Cowboys GM, their defensive coordinator admitted his failure on Sunday, “I probably panicked on some calls early. When we’ve been bad, it just steamrolls.”

Well, seeing the Cowboys give up 47 points at home isn’t something that anyone would have expected, considering their hopes of making it to the playoffs.
