Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones was perturbed that the sun was brought up again as an issue in his $1.2 billion retractable roof stadium, which has glass doors on either end.

One thousand percent.”And on the question of making the suggestion to Jones, Lamb said, “I mean, y’all are doing my job for me right now.”It has been suggested plenty of times, and Jones always has flatly rejected it.

The sun caused a stir following the 34-6 loss to their divisional rivals to drop the team’s record to 3-6. Cowboys’ wide receiver Ceedee Lamb voiced support for curtains to be put up at the Cowboys’ home stadium - AT&T Stadium - to prevent sun glare from affecting play on the field. With the Cowboys down 7-3 In the second quarter, Lamb missed a potential three-yard touchdown pass from Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush. Jones, who is also the team’s general manager, was then asked why not put curtains up to stop the glare.

The Athletic NFL writers Mike Jones, Ted Nguyen and Michael Silver share their thoughts on all of these storylines and more. After Week 9 wins by the Ravens, Bills, Bengals and Chargers, who is the second-best team in the AFC? If you don’t have an elite quarterback, don’t even bother trying to insert yourself into the “Who Will Win the AFC?” conversation. Denver has an elite defense but the Ravens offense presents unique challenges that they won’t see every week. That score doesn’t indicate how good this Broncos team actually is.

The Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott have agreed to a four-year, $240 million contract that will make him the highest-paid player in NFL history, according to multiple reports. The long, drawn-out negotiation ended with him earning the biggest contract in league history, valued at $60 million a season. Last season, Prescott set career highs in completions (410) and touchdowns (36), throwing for 4,516 yards with only nine interceptions. He led Dallas to a 12-5 record, but the Cowboys lost at home in the first round of the playoffs to the Green Bay Packers.
