ESPN's Stephen A. Smith had plenty to say about the Dallas Cowboys' latest loss on Tuesday's episode of "First Take." The charismatic TV personality couldn't help but blast Jerry Jones.
During Monday night's postgame presser, Jones dismissed the notion that Mike McCarthy lost the locker room in Dallas. He also told reporters that tough seasons like this are inevitable in the NFL. Clearly, Smith didn't appreciate those remarks from the longtime Cowboys owner.
Not only did Smith say he's worried about Jones' future in Dallas, he compared him to President Joe Biden.
"I'm not joking when I say this: I'm getting very very worried about Jerry Jones. The only thing that's worse than the team's play are his press conferences," Smith said. "I find myself thinking about Joe Biden before he backed out of running for reelection. I think Jerry's one month older than President Joe Biden for crying out loud. I remember when I was on the airwaves 10 months ago thinking he can't be the nominee. I'm looking at Jerry and I find myself asking where the hell are his family members?"

Believe it or not, Smith's comparison for Jones didn't cause an uproar on "First Take." In fact, Shannon Sharpe had a rebuttal for his debate partner.
Sharpe said, "The difference between what you said about President Biden and Jerry is that that big donors came in and said, 'President Biden, we're not going to donate unless you drop out.' What do they say to Jerry?"
"First Take" host Molly Qerim also chimed in with her own thoughts on Jones' recent antics.
"Since we keep referencing politics, I also have a fake statistic," Qerim said. "He [Jones] said since those Super Bowls in the 90s, they have the sixth-best winning percentage. They actually have the 11th... that's fake news right there
We didn't have Smith comparing Jones to Biden on our bingo card for the 2024 season, yet here we are.
The Cowboys will try to snap their five-game losing streak on Sunday when they take on the Washington Commanders.
