This situation extends to almost three decades the drought without playing a game for the National Conference title and without returning to the Super Bowl.\n\nAfter the 34-17 defeat against the Los Angeles Chargers, Jones did not hesitate to be self-critical, indicating that important decisions are coming within the organization.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I know exactly who the ultimate responsible party is. I didn&#8217;t get involved just to own and invest, but to dedicate my life to figuring out how to beat the rest of the NFL teams. This 30-year drought must be thoroughly analyzed and several things must change.<\/p><cite>Jerry Jones<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Through week 16 of the season, the Cowboys recorded six wins, seven losses, and one tie, numbers that left them with no chance of qualifying, despite the coaching change made before the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon concluding the 2024 season with a 7-10 record, Jones decided to dismiss Mike McCarthy and appointed Brian Schottenheimer as his replacement. However, with two weeks left in the schedule, the new coach also failed to bring the team back into contention for the NFC title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>This season we didn&#8217;t perform well enough. We all fell short of our expectations, and not making the playoffs says it all. Now we must ask ourselves if we are capable of making the necessary changes to be truly effective.<\/p><cite>Jerry Jones<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe franchise owner specifically pointed out the defensive performance, led by coordinator Matt Eberflus, whose unit ranks as the second-to-last in the league in points allowed.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It&#8217;s something we have to evaluate. We must analyze our options and correct what didn&#8217;t work so as not to repeat this situation next year. The entire technical staff will be evaluated and defensive statistics are a key part of the problem.<\/p><cite>Jerry Jones<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nFor his part, coach Brian Schottenheimer agreed with the team owner&#8217;s analysis.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>We are judged by winning and losing, and this year we haven&#8217;t won enough.<\/p><cite>Brian Schottenheimer<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe Cowboys will close the regular season with two away games: in week 17 they will face the Washington Commanders and in week 18 the New York Giants, both already without chances of advancing to the playoffs.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jerry Jones Takes Responsibility for the Cowboys&#8217; Frustrating Season Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has taken responsibility for the team&#8217;s disappointing performance, which missed the NFL playoffs for the second consecutive season.
