After the season opener, the Dallas Cowboys’ situation doesn’t seem to be improving as they experienced back-to-back losses. At this point, fans have gotten absolutely frustrated by the team, especially owner Jerry Jones– whose actions as well as inactions were largely criticized throughout the offseason. 

Jones is once again facing the wrath of the fans, with many labeling him the “biggest issue” for the Cowboys this season. When the 81-year-old was asked about it, he surprisingly took all the responsibility for the recent week 3’s loss against the Baltimore Ravens, which recorded the team’s third consecutive home game loss.

During his recent appearance on 105.3 The Fan radio, Jones addressed the backlash he has been receiving from the fans, calling it “very fair.” He is well aware that the team’s performances lately have not lived up to the standards and expectations of fans. That’s why, he understands where the anger of Cowboys fanatics is coming from.

Despite the backlash and failures, Jones likes his team “at all positions.” After the playoff fiasco, the Cowboys are again falling behind by averaging 73.7 rushing yards per game with their offense.

Jerry Jones confronted for letting Derrick Henry slip away to Ravens

The Cowboys’ inactivity for most of the offseason this year led to immense criticism of the front office all over the internet. Things got worse when the team let go of strong offensive weapons such as Derrick Henry, who expressed his desire to join America’s team.

Due to the Cowboys’ inactivity, the star running back landed in Baltimore and his performance in the week 3’s game against the Cowboys added fuel to fans’ anger toward the team. He recorded 151 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries in the Ravens 28-25 victory over Dallas. 

Following the match, Jones was confronted for letting go of a talent such as Henry and he responded by saying, “We couldn’t afford Derrick Henry,” despite being the richest franchise in the league with a net worth of $11 billion, according to CNBC. 

Moving forward with a 1-2 record, the Cowboys are now preparing for the upcoming match against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium scheduled on the coming Thrusday. If they suffer another failure, they will be placed at the bottom of the NFL’s one of the most competitive divisions, the NFC East.
