Jerry Jones is not going to make any big decisions after the Dallas Cowboys suffered a shocking loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. After the game, the Cowboys owner said that he is not going to make any coaching changes, per ESPN's Todd Archer. Jones also said that he still has confidence in head coach Brian Schottenheimer.
"I'm not proud of it, but I made a change with Wade Phillips during the middle of the season," Jones said, per Jon Machota of The Athletic. "And I don't see that here." The Cowboys led the Cardinals 14-0 before losing 33-30 in overtime. The game only went to overtime because Arizona missed an extra point after tying the game.
Dallas is now 3-5 and 1-2 at home. Schottenheimer is in his second season as head coach after leading the Cowboys to a 7-9-1 record last year. "I will say that a lot of people let Brian down today," Jones said.
"And so, whatever criticism we want to have of Brian, we gonna all get in line. That was a total team effort out of us. We have to be better than that when we got our hands on a win and then dropped the ball." The Cowboys have lost three of their last four games and have yet to win back-to-back games this year.
In the next three games, Dallas will face the Indianapolis Colts, San Francisco 49ers, and the Tennessee Titans. The 49ers are the only team of the three that has a winning record, so the Cowboys have a chance to turn things around and secure Schottenheimer's position with the club.
