Dallas owner Jerry Jones looked absolutely disgusted with the Cowboys during a playoff game against the Packers. Watching his team fall behind by four touchdowns in the first half of the contest, it appeared he’d already had enough.
It’s been a trend for the franchise, which is just 5-12 in the postseason since winning its last Super Bowl.
Despite posting impressive regular season records, including winning 12 wins in each of the last three campaigns, the Cowboys fall apart on the big stage. That often includes a first-round playoff exit.
Reality appeared to set in for Jerry Jones once again while watching from his suite in AT&T Stadium on Sunday.
Green Bay, led by third-year passer Jordan Love, rolled early and often against their NFC rival, jumping out to a 27-0 first half lead.
Jones was beside himself.

It’s been a miserable day for the Cowboys, particularly on offense. Starting quarterback Dak Prescott threw a pair of first half picks, one of which was returned 64 yards for a score.
The other set up another Packers touchdown.
Not much has gone right for Dallas, though they did pull within three scores with a touchdown on the final play before halftime. It might not be enough.
Will Jerry Jones have a decision to make after the game?
Mike McCarthy is in Year 4 with the Cowboys, posting 12-win seasons three years straight. Unfortunately, his playoff record is likely to fall to 1-3 after the poor performance against the Packers.
Many in Dallas believe it’s the end of the line.
Update
Jones’s mood would not change in the second half as the Cowboys fell behind 48-16.
