Jerry Jones Reflects on Cowboys' Tough Tie
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones expressed mixed emotions after the team's 40-40 tie against the Green Bay Packers. While proud of the Cowboys' resilience and effort, Jones admitted feeling "sick" about not securing a win. He highlighted quarterback Dak Prescott's outstanding performance, noting Prescott was the better quarterback on the field and deserved a victory instead of a tie.
Strong Performance Amid Challenges
Despite missing key wide receiver CeeDee Lamb due to injury, Prescott threw for 319 yards and three touchdowns, showing leadership and skill. The Cowboys battled hard against a tough Packers team, including former edge rusher Micah Parsons, who was traded this season. Jones acknowledged the defense struggled but praised the team's ability to keep pace in a high-scoring game.
Looking Ahead with Optimism
Jones remains optimistic about the Cowboys' playoff chances, emphasizing the team's competitive spirit and determination. Though disappointed by the tie, he believes this game provides lessons and momentum for the long season ahead, encouraging the team and fans to stay focused on future success.
