Jerry Jones Takes Blame After Cowboys' Loss to Bears, Comments on Jason Garrett

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said following the team's 31-24 loss to the Chicago Bears on Thursday night that failures in the roster-building process fall on the general manager, which is a role he also fills for the organization.

Jane Slater of the NFL Network passed along Jones' comments from an interview on 105.3 The Fan radio in Dallas on Friday, in which he accepted his share of the blame. He also discussed speculation surrounding whether head coach Jason Garrett has lost the ability to lead the team.

"As far as quitting on Jason Garrett, when you quit on the coach, you quit on yourself," he said.
