Dallas Cowboys make owner Jerry Jones proud after being eliminated from the playoff chase

Associated Press  

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys were officially eliminated from the playoff contention before they kicked off Sunday night. They then went out and made owner Jerry Jones proud, with a 26-24 victory over the playoff-chasing Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With all the lingering questions about the future of coach Mike McCarthy with him being on an expiring contract, and the Cowboys far removed from the possibility of repeating as NFC East champions, they won for the fourth time in their last five games — all without injured franchise quarterback Dak Prescott. “We both looked like we had lost somebody, and so it was something you had to kind of get over the reality that we weren’t going to to go,” Jones said. While expressing how proud he was of the team and how they played for McCarthy, Jones still wasn’t ready to address the coach’s contract status — or the lack of a deal after this season.
