Blowing a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter of an overtime loss to the Cardinals didn’t do much to inspire confidence in the Cowboys from the general public, but it doesn’t appear to have led to much of a change in the internal thinking about the team.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has consistently said that the team is looking for ways to add to the roster via a trade and executive vice president Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan on Monday that Sunday’s loss has not changed anything on that front.
“We think we’re close. We think we can get this ship righted and that we can have success,” Jones said, via Jon Machota of TheAthletic.com.
After watching the Cowboys for eight weeks, it’s hard to see how any one player is going to have that kind of the impact on the team’s fortunes. The Jones family appears to see things differently, which means a trade will remain a possibility in Dallas until the deadline is in the rearview mirror.
