The Dallas Cowboys came into their week 15 game against the Buffalo Bills on the back of five consecutive wins. They had a great chance to go clear of their divisional rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles. However, they failed to do so as they lost the game, 31-10. As a result of that, the Cowboys have now slipped to 10-4. They are now a game behind the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC standings with three games to go.

The Cowboys played the later stages of the game in rainy conditions in Buffalo. However, the Bills’ lead was established by the rain arrived and it did not affect the game that much. Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones though, believes that the Buffalo weather played a huge role in the Cowboys’ loss last Sunday. He recently talked about it on a radio show.

Jones said on 105.3 The Fan about the Cowboys loss at Buffalo:

I would say the other night, weather, for instance. One was wet, one's dry. You say the other team has to play in the wet, too, yeah, they do, but I'm just giving you a difference. We have perfect conditions to play in at home. We've got the elements a lot of times on the road.

The Cowboys will look to bounce back in their next game against the Miami Dolphins. They have already qualified for the playoffs, but will hope to win their division as well by winning all their remaining games.

Fans slam Jerry Jones for blaming Buffalo’s weather for the Cowboys’ loss

Jones though, felt otherwise and referenced the weather while talking about the Cowboys’ loss during an appearance on 105.3 The Fan.

Fans on social media slammed Jones for blaming the weather for the team’s loss. Some called it the “worst answer I’ve ever heard,” while others joked about Jones needing to build a “dome” over the opponents’ stadiums. Here are some of the reactions to Jones’ statements.

The Cowboys have a perfect record at home as they have won all their 7 home games this season. However, they haven’t been great away from home as they have lost 4 out of 7 away games so far this season. They will look to change that this Sunday against the Miami Dolphins at the Hard Rock Stadium.
