erry Jones had anything but a relaxing Sunday afternoon as his Dallas Cowboys got demolished by the Philadelphia Eagles, 41-7, at Lincoln Financial Field. Adding insult to injury, the 82-year-old team owner was the target of relentless heckling from Eagles fans throughout the one-sided matchup.
Video footage captured by attendees showed Philly faithful giving Jones an earful as he watched from a luxury box. Dressed in green and brimming with energy, Eagles fans let loose on the Cowboys’ head honcho for the entire game.
The Cowboys entered the divisional showdown with some momentum, having clawed their way to a 7-8 record after a dismal 3-7 start. But their hopes of salvaging the season crumbled in dramatic fashion. Dallas was outgained 376-268 in yardage, coughed up the ball four times, and racked up penalties that halted any hope of a comeback.
Brandon Aubrey’s missed field goal only added to the Cowboys’ misery, and tempers boiled over as some Dallas players got into a scuffle with Eagles players in the game’s final moments.
The embarrassing loss and subsequent taunting have left Cowboys fans and Texas media speculating about what’s next for the team. Could Jerry Jones be planning to part ways with head coach Mike McCarthy? And after enduring the raucous Philadelphia crowd, should he invest in soundproof plexiglass for his future road trips?
