The Dallas Cowboys faced a disappointing 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, with frustrations mounting over a crucial incompletion due to the sun's glare at AT&T Stadium. All-Pro receiver CeeDee Lamb expressed his frustration at losing sight of the ball in the sun during a potential scoring play in the first half. The unique east-west alignment of the stadium allows sunlight to shine through the windows on the west side during afternoon games, causing visibility challenges for players.

Lamb's plea for curtains to mitigate the sun's impact was met with resistance from Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who adamantly rejected the idea, citing prior knowledge of the sun's positioning during games. Despite the ongoing debate about the sun's interference, Jones emphasized that all teams playing at AT&T Stadium face the same challenges and that the issue is not specific to the Cowboys.
