Jerry Jones lashes out at question about sun's glare at AT&T Stadium after Cowboys' loss

The topic of Jerry Jones’ latest media meltdown this time heavily revolved around a setting sun.
How appropriate.
After the Dallas Cowboys lost to the Philadelphia Eagles 34-6 on Sunday, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb said he dropped a pass because the sun’s glare that shined through the windows of AT&T Stadium prevented him from seeing the ball.
Lamb's reaction after he missed a pass from Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush in the end zone indicated that the sun was the main factor.
“Couldn’t see the ball. Couldn’t see the ball, at all,” Lamb told reporters. “The sun.”

Lamb said he was “one thousand percent” in favor of curtains — a notion Jones immediately derided when asked about the possibility of installing some shades.
“Well let’s tear the damn stadium down and build another one?” Jones sarcastically responded. “Are you kidding me?”
The setting sun during late-afternoon games in Arlington, Texas, has given teams issues in the past. But Jones insisted the team has a handle on the matter.
“By the way, we know where the sun is going to be when we decide to flip the coin or not," Jones said. "We do know where the damn sun is going to be in our own stadium.
“Everybody has got the same thing. Every team that comes in here has the same issues.”
