The pressure is on Jason Garrett in Dallas, and CBS had Jerry Jones dialed in for reaction shots throughout Thursday’s Cowboys-Buffalo Bills game accordingly. One reaction shot of Jones did not spell good news for Garrett.
Late in the third quarter, Dallas was trailing 23-7 against Buffalo. The Cowboys had a 4th-and-goal at the six and decided to go for it. Dak Prescott badly missed Ezekiel Elliott on a swing pass, turning the ball over to the Bills on downs.
CBS showed Jones’ reaction to the bad play, and the team owner buried his face in his hands and shook his head.

Garrett being aggressive on fourth downs — he also went for one early in the game despite being deep in Cowboys territory — seemed like a reaction to being criticizing for his field goal choice late in the loss to the Patriots the week before.
Now people will move on from criticizing Garrett about his coaching decisions to his playcalling.
