Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says it's 'very fair' to blame him for team's struggles
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the Cowboys ‘tried to turn up the heat’ this offseason. Craig Carton, Danny Parkins and Mark Schlereth discuss if this is an accurate statement.
With a 1-2 start, finger-pointing has begun in Dallas.
For Jerry Jones, it's thumb-pointing.
Dallas lost its second consecutive game Sunday and has allowed the third-most points per game so far this season, prompting early panic.
A recent poll by WFAA-TV in Dallas says the team's owner, Jerry Jones, is most to blame for the horrendous start, with 70% of fans placing blame on him.

And Jones is wearing it on the chin.
"That's very fair," he acknowledged Tuesday to 105.3 The Fan. "It's well known that no decision is ultimately made here for what I either have acquiesced [to] or approved it. That's very fair.
"How could you think otherwise, whether it be who's out there coaching, whether it be who's out there playing, whether it be the stadium you're walking into? Whatever it is here, that's the way it is. Now, let me just say this. Do I have a huge amount of input in making those decisions? When they've done their homework, they're very influential input to me, and we've got a lot of people in the Dallas Cowboys that have done their input."
