The Dallas Cowboys had a chance to win their second game in a row, but they fell to the Arizona Cardinals in overtime during Week 8. They had a 30-24 lead with seconds remaining in regulation, and the defense was not able to get a stop as Gardner Minshew drove down the field and threw a touchdown.
Luckily for the Cowboys, they missed the extra point, but they still lost in overtime to a game-winning field goal. After the loss, owner Jerry Jones was asked if he would make any changes to the team.
“Jerry Jones said coaching changes aren’t on his mind at this time,” Jon Machota of The Athletic wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Things can change at any time, so the Cowboys might need to get things together before Jones actually makes a decision that shakes up the coaching staff. As of now, it still looks like the defense is struggling no matter what they do, and it's hard to tell what they need to do to see positive changes on that side of the ball.
One of the things that Jones may consider is trading for another player, and Josh Sweat is one name who continues to pop up. It's uncertain if Jones wants to continue to exhaust all of his draft capital to improve the team for the present, but if he believes that player can make a difference, he seems willing to make a deal.
As of now, the Cowboys have to find out how they're going to get better as they're set to face the Indianapolis Colts next week.
