“We’ll have to make some adjustments with what we’re doing defensively,” Jones said in the Cowboys' locker room. “What that usually means is taking more risks on defense. If you’re going to have the type of nights we had like [Monday], and certainly down in New Orleans, then you got to take some risks.
"We’ve just got to double-up, and I’m sure that will be a part of the plan on defense is more risks. We’ve got to play the balls. We got to go after the ball more.”
Asked if that includes suggesting schematic changes to what defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin is calling, Jones said no, but then offered a rambling, confusing assessment of what it takes to be a more successful defense.
“We can do some things different out there," Jones said. "It’s not as safe, but it could be more effective; it could maybe get us a turnover when it might have made a difference and changed the tide out there.
“I’ll assure you that we’ll be doing some different things up against Green Bay. There will be a little different cast of players out here against Green Bay, but [the Bears] use their assets very effectively, those big receivers. The quarterback put it on them, and we just couldn’t defend it.”
