As this year’s Cowboys (3–1) enters their game against the Niners (4–0), owner Jerry Jones believes the matchup will be a litmus test against the NFL’s “most likely” Super Bowl contender as things stand currently.
“They are, right now, probably the most likely team to go win the Super Bowl, but in order for them to get there, they have to go by us, hopefully two times if that’s the way it falls in the playoffs and we’re in the playoffs, of course,” Jones said Tuesday on 105.3 The Fan with Shan & RJ.
