In addition, Doug Pederson is under pressure after the Jaguars, who are 2-9, have dropped four in a row.
The Dallas Cowboys are in the process of making some major changes. GM Joe Douglas was let go exactly six weeks after the team dismissed their head coach, Robert Saleh. Since his departure, the Cowboys have only managed to win one out of their last six matches since Jeff Ulbrich took over as the head coach. Douglas' contract was set to end after this season, during which he had a record of 30 wins and 64 losses as the general manager.
On the other hand, in the NFL, while the Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Chargers were working to secure their positions in the AFC playoffs, the Jacksonville Jaguars were on the verge of securing the top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft following a dominant 52-6 victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Doug Pederson guided the Jaguars to a mediocre 9-8 record over the last two seasons, even making it to the playoffs and clinching a win in 2022, but a poor start to the year could signal trouble for his position. Meanwhile, Nick Bosa departed from the 49ers after their devastating loss to the Seahawks, and it wasn't due to a recurrence of a hip injury that had him sidelined for Week 11.
But first, let's discuss the Dallas Cowboys, who suffered a crushing defeat by the Houston Texans on Monday night and have not managed to secure a win at home in a remarkably long period.
The Cowboys have yet to clinch a victory on their turf in 2024.
They suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football, ending up with a score of 34-10 away at AT&T Stadium. Currently, the Cowboys stand at a record of 3-7, with their sole victories coming away from home. They are the sole team in the NFL without a win at home this year, alongside the New York Giants. However, zooming out to look at the bigger picture, the Cowboys' situation is even more dire. The Giants last won at home on January 7, 2024, while the Cowboys have not secured a victory in their home stadium since December 30, 2023.
This puts the Cowboys in a unique position as the only team across all four major North American professional sports leagues to not have won a game at home in the year 2024. Even the Philadelphia 76ers and Washington Wizards, who share the NBA's worst record of 2-11, have each managed to win a game at home.
With four out of their seven remaining home games, the Cowboys still have a slim chance of clinching a win at their home stadium before the season concludes. However, the Cowboys' performance in the past year has been lackluster. It's not out of the question that they will go the entire season without a win at home.
