Jerry Jones ‘Not Going To Panic’, Garrett Safe

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was dreaming of an unlikely surge to the Super Bowl on Thanksgiving Thursday.

Following another unconvincing performance against the Buffalo Bills, Jerry Jones confirmed that he won’t fire head coach Jason Garrett during the season.

The 26 – 15 loss to Buffalo means the Cowboys no longer have a winning record after 12 games. As well as that, the 6 – 6 Cowboys have yet to defeat a winning team this season. 

Dallas now only has a half game lead in the NFC. The second-placed Philadelphia Eagles are breathing down their necks. They do still have control over their own destiny, at least for now. As long as they’re still in with a chance to make the playoffs, Jerry Jones won’t pull the trigger on his coach.

“I’m just not going to make a coaching change,” Jones said. “… This is not the time.

“I’m looking ahead at another ballgame and I’m looking ahead at winning four or five straight and helping to write a story that they’ll talk about that you were down and out and you got it done,” Jones said. 

“Every decision that I make over the next month will be with an eye in mind to get us in the Super Bowl now.”

“I’m not going to panic, I’m going to look for ways to improve the situation,” he said. 

“One of them is not a coaching change. One of them is not reworking the offense or the defense. Those aren’t alternatives for us to be ready to play over the next month and give us a chance to be what we want to be.”

“The way that I’m going to handle this is encourage everybody to basically look to the possibility of winning out and end up doing something that people will write about 30 years from now,” he said. 

“I like that story tonight as I eat my turkey.”
