Jerry Jones, 82, gets heckled by Philadelphia Eagles fans while watching Dallas Cowboys suffer heavy loss

Jerry Jones was brutally heckled by Philadelphia Eagles fans as he watched his Dallas Cowboys team get thrashed 41-7 by their bitter rivals on Sunday. Despite sitting in a luxury suite at Philly's Lincoln Financial Field, the 82-year-old could not avoid the taunts of Eagles fans throughout the game.
They turned toward the glass and snapped selfies and taunted the glum Cowboys owner and general manager each time Philadelphia scored their five touchdowns. They chanted 'Dallas sucks!' throughout the game and generally harassed Jones as voraciously as they could from start to finish in a victory for the home team that clinched the NFC East title on Sunday.
Wearing sunglasses, Jones seemingly took the jabs in stride when he was on the field during pregame warmups. 'Jerry, you're doing a great job this year, man. Keep it going,' one fan shouted as others sarcastically clapped toward Jones. 'Great job. Keep doing what you're doing, Jerry. We love you in Philly.'.

The Cowboys entered the game having won four of five. But they were doomed from the start when Cooper Rush had a pass intercepted by C.J. Gardner-Johnson and returned 69 yards for a touchdown on the opening drive.
Rush threw for 147 yards and was picked off twice by Gardner-Johnson. The Cowboys also played without CeeDee Lamb, who was shut down with two games remaining after their 2023 All-Pro receiver spent the second half of the season dealing with a sprained right shoulder.
