The Cowboys were humiliated in Week 2 by the Saints, losing 44-19 in a game that never felt as close as even that disastrous score suggests.
Dallas should be embarrassed and there’s plenty of blame to go around, but they now have to quickly turn around and get ready for a tilt against a desperate Ravens squad in Week 2. Jerry Jones is no stranger to public comments and wasted no time in declaring his disappointment with his team’s effort.
While admitting it was a poor performance, Jones assured fans that the Cowboys would improve and grow from this mess.
Jerry Jones Offers First Comments on Awful Cowboys Week 2 Loss
“Extraordinarily disappointing,” Jones said. “We will correct this. We will improve.”
He’d better hope so, or else creative offensive coaches will continue exploiting Mike McCarthy and Mike Zimmer’s defense. Dak Prescott failed to keep his team in the game once things went south, eerily reminiscent of the home playoff loss to the Packers in 2023.
Despite his claims that the Cowboys were “all-in” for a Super Bowl this year, Jones failed to make significant improvements to the roster. On paper, this is an inferior team to last season’s squad, and that group wasn’t good enough to make any noise in the postseason.
It looks like this could be a long year for Dallas fans, but Prescott and the defense can turn things around with a victory AGAINST Baltimore. The Ravens are off to a 0-2 start after their own awful loss to the Raiders, so we’ll see two desperate teams putting forth their best game plans.
Unfortunately for Jones, that typically favors the opponent. As long as McCarthy is at the helm, it doesn’t look like significant improvements will come despite Jones’ insistence in public.
