Ta. “But the important thing to think about here is we’ve been playing this six games in a row. We’re 3-3. There are times early in the season when you don’t like the situation you’re in. We don’t like where we are. There’s a lot of work to be done.”
The Cowboys have lost four straight home games, their last win at AT&T Stadium coming on Dec. 30 against the Lions (20-19).

“Everyone knows you’re supposed to feel better when you’re home,” Jones said. “I think that’s an advantage. You don’t travel. You sleep in your own bed. That should be an advantage at home and that’s one of the first things you look at. ‘OK, the other team Why aren’t we playing better when we have an advantage against them?’We can start the morning in a familiar place. That’s something to think about. Generally speaking, my message is, I know you don’t need to listen to me, but I’m very aware that we’re in the proverbial “hole” right now. I think it means that. ”
