The Cowboys owner said Week 5 against the 49ers would be a good place to start executing in short-yardage opportunities.
Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones is interviewed before an NFL football game against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, Sept. 10, 2023, in East Rutherford, NJ.
the Cowboys have recorded a 36.8% conversion rate in the red zone.“You should have [the red zone] on the front of mind at any time when you think about offense,” Jones said. “But do I feel like we’ve got the players? Do I feel like we’ve got the plays to do better with — I understand why we’ve missed on a few of those things in the red zone. I’m not as dubious or I’m not as skeptical of where we will be to start it right against San Francisco.“We’ve got the stuff to get in the end zone.
Against the Patriots, the Cowboys went 1-for-4 from the red zone. The only successful conversion came in the fourth quarter when fullback Hunter Luepke ran in for a 3-yard touchdown.“More importantly, I would put at the top of the list: Execution,” Jones said. “Just the blocking, the picking up your guy. Just the nuances of what we were trying to do and it’s across the board. Consequently, I think you’re just really fractions away from executing on some of those plays.
Speaking of the offense, Jones was pleased with the way the unit held up against the Patriots’ defense. He expects Dak Prescott and his receivers to continue building on their performance throughout the rest of the campaign. Prescott completed 28 of 34 pass attempts for 261 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions. Nine players caught passes from Prescott, with Jake Ferguson’s seven receptions for 77 yards leading the way. CeeDee Lamb came down with a 20-yard touchdown grab in the first quarter.“The more we are able to affect that passing game and get those guys, especially on what I call crossing routes, the more we can get that done, then it’ll open up our vertical [game] and even more so,” Jones said.
