Dallas, despite playing relatively well on offense, continued their defensive woes this week by giving up 30 points to Carolina. As a result, they are now 2-3-1 on the year. After it was announced on X by Cowboys reporter Clarence Hill Jr. that Jones would not be speaking to the media today, fans took the opportunity to lay into the longtime franchise owner.

Dallas Cowboys can't overcome defensive struggles as 2025 rolls on

Dallas has given up 30 points or more to four of their six opponents this season thus far. While their offense has managed to keep them in games, establishing themselves as arguably the best in the league this year, it hasn't been enough to put up consistent victories.

The defensive struggles also come after Jerry Jones decided to trade away star pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers this offseason. Dealing Parsons away was a controversial decision amongst Cowboys fans, who were essentially split on the move that returned two first-round draft picks and Kenny Clark to plug the middle of the defensive line.

Now, Dallas finds itself in a situation where they could soon struggle to keep pace with division rivals the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders. If the Cowboys fail to get their defensive unit in order as the second half of the season looms, they could again miss out on postseason action.

Dallas and their defense will attempt to rally in its first divisional tilt against the Washington Commanders at home next weekend in what will be a true test for both clubs.
