Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb didn’t hold back his discontent after a devastating loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Facing a fourth consecutive defeat, the Cowboys fell under heavy scrutiny after Sunday’s 34-6 blowout, highlighting issues on and off the field.
With starting quarterback Dak Prescott out due to a hamstring injury, the Cowboys’ offensive weaknesses were obvious. Yet, Lamb pointed to a less typical factor affecting the game—one that’s been a topic of conversation for more than a year.

At a critical moment, Lamb missed a potential touchdown catch. His reason? The sun.
The bright sunlight in AT&T Stadium has drawn attention from both fans and players, and on Sunday, Lamb cited it as a problem affecting his play.
“I couldn’t see the ball,” Lamb explained post-game. “The sun blocked it.”

Lamb wants the problem fixed
Lamb has a simple solution in mind: curtains or shades for the stadium. Instead of directly pressing owner Jerry Jones, Lamb let the media carry his message.
“Y’all are doing my job for me,” Lamb joked when asked if he’d talk to Jones about it.
Jones, who has praised the open design for giving the Cowboys a home-field edge, may face pressure to reconsider as the Cowboys have yet to win at home, with three of four losses by 25 points or more.
With a poor 3-6 record and Prescott’s return still in question, Dallas looks more like a team aiming for a high draft pick than a playoff contender. Lamb’s message is clear, and fans are waiting to see if Jones will respond to his receiver’s request.
