Cowboys' Jerry Jones gets testy in fiery radio interview: 'That's not your job'

Jerry Jones is sick and tired of being sick and tired.
The Dallas Cowboys owner was in his typical weekly radio spot on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas, but his tone was a bit atypical. While verbal jousting with the show's hosts is customary, especially after a difficult loss, Jones went after the hosts particularly hard on Tuesday.
When pushed on the Cowboys and their offseason approach, Jones started to push back, even alluding to replacing the hosts for their line of questioning.
"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, man. I'm not kidding," Jones said in a fiery rant.
"You're not going to figure out what the team is doing right or wrong. If you are, or any five or 10 like you, you need to come to this (NFL) meeting I'm going to today, there are 32 teams here. You're geniuses.

"Y'all really think you're gonna sit here with a microphone and tell me all of the things that I've done wrong, and without going over the rights?"
OPINION:Jerry Jones remains one of the Cowboys' biggest problems
The Cowboys have underperformed through six games so far this season, with a mediocre 3-3 entering their Week 7 bye week. In Week 6, they were on the business end of a 47-9 blowout by the Lions.
Jones has shouldered a fair amount of the blame for their results this season after a quiet offseason, in which their biggest signing was a reunion with running back Ezekiel Elliott. The Cowboys owner also doubled down on his "all in" approach for their offseason.
"We feel great about what we've been in free agency," Jones said in April. "All in. All in. All in. We're all in with these young guys. We're all in with this draft."
Well, if the Cowboys don't resume their winning ways, and fast, they may be all out of the NFL playoff picture.
