Jerry Jones asked for what he already has today, in an appearance on 105.3 The Fan. Namely, the ire of Dallas Cowboys fans. A 13-year playoff drought and an increasing penchant for underachieving will do that, huh?
Speaking to Richie Whitt and Blue-Star and NBCDFW's own Newy Scruggs, the owner and general manager said that he likes the fan-born fury that comes, like clockwork, after losses.
"I knew when we walked out of Denver with that loss that we were in for a rough week," Jones said. (How insightful.) "But I can assure you that one thing I don't want is apathy. I want people highly pissed when we're not playing satisfactorily, and that's the case right now."
Highly pissed, eh?
Well, between his franchise player struggling to hit wide-open receivers, his former wunderkind offensive coordinator making bad playcalling standard procedure, and a number one receiver standing on the outside of the league's top 80 in terms of catches, well, I don't think Jerry has to worry much about that one.

Jerry Jones: I Want Pissed Off Fans

​You ask for it, you got it.
The Dallas Cowboys owner tells me and Newy Scruggs this morning on 105.3 The Fan that he not only accepts criticism of his team's play this season, he desires it. Demands it, even.
"I knew when we walked outta Denver with that loss that we were in for a rough week," Jones said of, well, us. "But I can assure you that one thing I don't want is apathy. I want people highly pissed when we're not playing satisfactorily, and that's the case right now."
Oh yeah, and Newy also asked Jerry point blank about the head coach's job status ...
So, is Wade Phillip's job on the line this Sunday in Kansas City?
"No," says Jerry. "No it's not."
Oh, well. <Repeatedly slamming fist into open palm.>
