Cowboys Turmoil Deepens as Eberflus Owns Defensive Collapse, Parsons Accuses Jerry Jones of Slander

Eberflus’ accountability remarks followed a season of league-worst defensive numbers after Dallas dealt Micah Parsons to Green Bay.

Overview

  • Eberflus said he takes full accountability for Dallas’ 2025 defense and also noted the loss of an All‑Pro edge rusher changed the unit’s equation.
  • Pressed on adjustments, Eberflus said he would not do anything differently, emphasizing in-season adaptation despite injuries in the secondary.
  • Parsons responded on X by reposting Eberflus’ comments with laughing emojis before alleging Jerry Jones had slandered him to media.
  • The Cowboys enter Week 18 last in points allowed and pass defense and bottom three in several other categories after being eliminated from the playoffs.
  • Jerry Jones has acknowledged responsibility for hiring Eberflus and has signaled quick defensive changes as reports describe the coordinator on the hot seat.
