Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman emphasized the team's struggles this year, stating that they have struggled to find success at home, suffering three losses at AT&T Stadium. In their latest defeat, a 47-9 loss against the Detroit Lions, quarterback Dak Prescott and the offense appeared out of sync, causing the team to struggle to find a consistent rhythm. On 96.7 The Ticket, Aikman discussed the Cowboys' offensive struggles due to star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb 's absence during the offseason. Lamb missed preseason and training camp, waiting for a four-year, $136 million contract extension.

Troy Aikman emphasized the Dallas Cowboys’ struggles this yearThe Dallas Cowboys are currently 3-3 and have not won a game at home this season. Despite a 47-9 blowout loss to Detroit in Week 6, team owner Jerry Jones is not considering a head coaching change. Jones, who is 82 years old, expressed his "sickness" about the loss but refused to be told about his mistakes. Troy Aikman, who has coached the Cowboys for 12 seasons and three Super Bowls in four years, criticized the team's route-running and perceived "lazy" appearance off the field. Jones' comments have sparked criticism from former quarterback Troy Aikman. "I'm not impressed," Aikman said, via Sports Illustrated.
Colin Cowherd believes that head coach Mike McCarthy's tenure is over. "[Dallas] can no longer compete at home with the better teams: Green Bay, Detroit, Baltimore," he said on Friday's edition of "The Herd." "They couldn't compete at home when the Saints were healthy. That's a problem. Jerry Jones can get on local radio and bang on the hosts all he wants, but when Troy Aikman calls you lazy and when Michael Irvin … calls you soft — Mike McCarthy's career is over. … It's just not official."
He added, "In five seasons, Mike McCarthy [has] one playoff win. … When you have Aikman and Irvin going out and willing to say this publicly in the same week, the messaging is pretty clear. Mike's out. Jerry wants him out. Make the landing soft, but they can't compete at home. And lazy receiver routes? That's on coaching.”
Dallas has struggled in the NFC East, losing to New Orleans in Week 2 and Baltimore in Week 3. Their three wins have come on the road against the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, and Pittsburgh Steelers. They currently sit in third place, ahead of only the Giants. Dallas has a bye in Week 7 and a road game against the San Francisco 49ers next weekend.
