Jerry Jones came to glance Dak Prescott lead his Cowboys to win over the Packers in the Wildcard False of the 2023 NFL season playoffs. After all, he had seen them win all eight games at home this seaon and he would not have predictable anything different. Dallas were the second seed and facing the seventh seed Green Bay and heavily favored to win.
Instead, what transpired was beyond the wildest imagination of both sets of fans. The Packers mauled the Cowboys 48-32, having led 27-0 at one point. That is the highest Dallas has ever conceded in their playoff history, which previously stood at 38. It was so bad for the home team that backup quarterback Sean Clifford came into the game in the fourth quarter to wind the clock down.
Jerry Jones was certainly not uncomfortable with what he was seeing and during the additional half when the cameras panned to him, he was seen slamming what observed like a piece of paper on the table in lead of him. The score was 41-16 at the time and he would see Green Bay obtain another touchdown.

Jerry Jones has big manager to make after Cowboys lose to Packers in the Wildcard round
Jerry Jones has big decisions in be in the lead of him. Dak Prescott is up for a requisition extension soon and he will have to decide whether to keep him or not. While there will be some reactionary humdrum against him, there are not many alternatives out there for the Cowboys to look at.
But the bigger quiz for Jerry Jones will be whether to retain head coach Mike McCarthy. This was a humiliating loss and falls more on Dan Quinn than him. But perhaps more than anyone, Jerry Jones has to look at himself as it is now three decades sincere they made the NFC Championship under his ownership.
