Never one to stay away from speaking his mind, Dallas Cowboys general manager and owner Jerry Jones made it clear that he didn't agree with the officiating during yesterday's Thanksgiving Day game against the Las Vegas Raiders at AT&T Stadium that saw several defensive pass interference penalties called against his team. 

“I call it throw up ball," Jones said after the game, via Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News. “This will arguably be the most-watched game other than the Super Bowl. I hate that it got down to just throwing the ball up and getting the penalties to get you big plays.”

The Cowboys lost 166 yards thanks to penalties compared to 110 to the Raiders. The 36-33 loss was the third loss for the Cowboys in their past four games after staring the season 6-1.

However, the news wasn't all bad from Jones. Despite his team's recent struggles, Jones assured fans that the sky isn't falling. 

“You have to look forward. Yesterday is as dead as Napoleon," he said. "It’s gone. And so we have to look at how to improve. The sky is not falling. When you look at the six games ahead that we have, the cavalry is coming. We’ve gotta take a deep breath and remember that this time of year is where you’re dealing with attrition. You’re normally dealing with a depleted situation in your personnel. Here we come with fresh legs.”

“The way we are playing right now, I feel good that we’re 7-4," Jones continued. "Because I know what we’ve got coming.”

The Cowboys will try to regroup when they visit the New Orleans Saints next Thursday.
