Cowboys fall to Bears for 3rd consecutive loss, 6-7 record on season

CHICAGO -- Jerry Jones might not be in a position to keep Jason Garrett as Dallas Cowboys head coach anymore.

Thursday's 31-24 loss to the Chicago Bears was the latest disappointment in a Cowboys' season that has gone wrong but still has the potential to lead to a playoff appearance.

Jones has made only one in-season coaching change in his tenure as owner and general manager and, at times, Thursday's game was reminiscent of Wade Phillips' final game on Nov. 7, 2010, a 45-7 defeat to the Green Bay Packers.

The day after that loss Garrett was installed as interim head coach and has had the job ever since.
