CeeDee Lamb is blaming the sun for his dropped touchdown pass in the Cowboys' 34-6 defeat to the Eagles, while owner Jerry Jones quips that curtains are a 'no-go'—perhaps suggesting they just need a whole new stadium instead.

In the aftermath of yet another dismal loss, Lamb's call for some sun-blocking curtains at AT&T Stadium has sparked a playful debate, but Jones swiftly dismissed the idea, hinting that a total stadium makeover might be more appropriate. With the Cowboys now sitting at a disappointing 3-6, their struggle to catch touchdown passes may be a bit overshadowed by their inability to catch a break, proving once again that winning isn't the only thing that gets dimmed by the sun.

The dropped pass, which could have turned the tide of the game, came from quarterback Cooper Rush and was tantalizingly close—a mere three yards away from being a highlight-reel touchdown. Instead, it became another emblem of the team's ongoing woes, with the spotlight firmly on a drop that some in the fanbase might label as 'the sun's fault.' After all, who hasn’t experienced that moment of squinting into the bright embrace of a sunny day and promptly losing sight of everything—especially, it seems, footballs?

While it may seem unorthodox to suggest solutions rooted in domestic decor at a high-profile sports venue, Lamb's proposition of installing curtains reflects a deeper yearning for any semblance of normalcy in a tumultuous season. After all, the Cowboys have a record of 3-6, which might have fans wondering whether they need to reconsider the stadium's inhabitants rather than its aesthetics.

Responding to Lamb's curtain call, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones wasn’t about to let the suggestion steal the show. He sardonicallly remarked that perhaps a complete rebuild of 'Jerry's World' was in order instead of simply curtailing the sunlight. One can only presume he was envisioning a shiny new stadium with sunlight management capabilities—perhaps featuring state-of-the-art retractable roofs and built-in sunglasses for all players.

Jones' casual dismissal of Lamb's ideas was layered with a hint of factual reality. "We know where the sun is, and it is certainly not a problem unique to the Cowboys," he quipped, providing a sage-like nod to the natural order of sky and sport. Indeed, other teams have also been caught in the sun's unforgiving glare, but it’s likely that few have experienced it quite as uniquely disastrous as the Cowboys this season.

As it stands, the Cowboys not only have to contend with the practicalities of daytime play but also the pressures that come with mixed results. Each defeat has layers—plans gone awry, spirits dimmed under the watchful gaze of the sun, and of course, the dawning realization that perhaps it isn't just the sunlight influencing their performance. With a season record of 3-6, there's a formidable mountain to climb, and apparently, a massive curtain to draw if they wish to steal back the spotlight.

Fans have taken to social media to express their own views on the matter—with suggestions ranging from full-on shades tailored to the needs of each player to simple changes in game times to avoid the harsh conditions of midday light. Some have even jokingly proposed that players wear visors painted with ‘don't drop this’ slogans as an alternative, highlighting the absurdity while still catching the undertone of frustration.

In the grand scheme, the curtain debate may have surfaced as a tongue-in-cheek commentary on the team’s struggles, showcasing a shared humor amid the grim realities of the season. As the Cowboys prepare for their next matchup, the thoughts of curtains—historic or otherwise—may flutter in the back of their minds, but execution on the field will ultimately remain the only blueprint that matters.

In conclusion, whether it’s lack of sunblock or a simple dip in morale, the Cowboys are tasked with uncovering their winning ways as they venture further into the season. Meanwhile, their owners and fans can only hope against hope that the sunlight casts a more favorable glow on their performance, lest they find themselves reaching for more than just ideas, but actual solutions to stem the tide of losses.
