Mike McCarthy’s Dallas Cowboys ended their 4-game losing streak with a win against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. The NFC East franchise kept their playoff hopes alive with a 28-31 win at the US Bank Stadium in Week 11. It was not pretty by any means, but it will do.

The Cowboys have been plagued with injuries this season. Star quarterback Dak Prescott is out with a double compound fracture while rookie CB Trevon Diggs is also on the sidelines. In addition, coach McCarthy’s defense has severely underperformed in 2020.

But after a much-needed win, can the Cowboys still battle against all odds and make the post-season? Here’s what Jerry Jones has to say on that.

Dallas Cowboys fans eagerly look forward to Jerry Jones’ weekly appearance on 105.3 The Fan radio show. In this week’s episode, the 78-year-old American businessman spoke about how a certain fruit ‘inspired’ his team to put an end to their losing run.

“Our team was inspired (Sunday at Minnesota). I don’t know if it was watermelon that got them inspired, but our team was inspired.

“So if it takes knocking the water out of watermelon before every ballgame, I’ll line up for volunteer duty,” Jones said on the radio show via Jon Machota.
