The Dallas Cowboys have received several beatdowns at home this season, but the latest one, a 47-9 rout by the Detroit Lions, had Jerry Jones in his feelings.

It also happened on his 82nd birthday, so his attitude was not the best. That was reflected on Tuesday morning when Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had his weekly interview on 105.3 The Fan, in which he went on a rant stating how he would have the radio hosts fired for asking him tough questions.

“This is not your job. Your job isn’t to let me go over all the reasons that I did something, and I’m sorry that I did it. That’s not your job. … I’ll get somebody else to ask these questions, men. … I’m not kidding,” he told hosts Shan Shariff and RJ Choppy during his weekly appearance.

Fast-forward a few days, and the radio hosts are now retaliating against the Cowboys owner over his behavior.

During Thursday’s installment of “Shan & RJ” on 105.3 The Fan, radio personality Bobby Belt stated Jones unnecessary outburst over the Cowboys lack of moves in the offseason made him look like “a little man,” while co-host Shan Shariff said the owner took a major loss by “threatening” their livelihood.

Per New York Post:

“I think he wanted to come at it like, oh, let me show my passion… I think he legitimately got mad, and then he kinda snapped,” Belt said while recalling the tense situation. “Because here’s the thing, I think there are a couple of areas where there is showman Jerry and then there is genuinely upset Jerry. And I don’t think there is much that genuinely upsets him, but there’s a few things.

“And one of those things I think is… clearly over the course of his relationship with Jimmy Johnson and everything else — I don’t think he likes his importance being diminished. He doesn’t like having that happen… It was universally received as what a little man… I can’t imagine he wanted that, but I think he just got angry and snapped, and it was received poorly. It was dominant, what Jerry said, and I don’t think he anticipated that.”

After the fiery Jerry Jones interview, Shariff stated that he received tons of calls and text messages.

“So he went in trying to be tough toned but still snapped within that, that’s probably what happened… because what he did with the threatening part is an all-time bad loss for him with the way it was received,” Shariff said.

“I had people in the business calling me (Tuesday), saying you need to contact an employment attorney, you need to get representation.”

After Jerry Jones threatened to have somebody else do their jobs, Shariff and Choppy described the interaction as “cringey.”

“It got cringey for me. It got uncomfortable,” Shariff said “The belittling, the bullying, cutting us off, the threat that was in there as well. It sounded even worse listening back.”

Choppy added, “It got cringey, it did. There’s no doubt about it.”

Dallas is currently on a bye week and will look to bounce back when it faces the San Francisco 49ers on October 27.

Jerry Jones Explains His Behavior

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has been making headlines for all of the wrong reasons, and this week was involved in a fiery interview following the team’s embarrassing loss to the Detroit Lions.

Following Tuesday’s wild moment, Jones spoke with The Athletic NFL insider Dianna Russini and explained his frustration.

“The facts are that if I’m going to be grilled by the tribunal, I don’t need it to be by the guys I’m paying. I can take it from fans and take it from other people. I take a lot of pride in how fair and how much I try to work with the media, we’re brothers and sisters. But I was a little frustrated there today.

We got in there as of accounting for decisions made in the offseason. OK? They might as well gone back to decisions made in 2010. My point is, and that’s from my perspective, there’s no question, I’m sure that they would have liked to have grilled me like the fans are thinking, what are you going to do about that? I get it. I get all of that. And really will go along with it.

The wrong ones were doing the questioning. Now, if those had been real fans sitting there or if there had been people that knew what they were talking about, football people, I might have had a different answer.”
