Most Cowboys fans know how tough it will be to go against Lamar and Henry, and it appears Jerry does too.
The Dallas Cowboys face the Baltimore Ravens at Maracanã Stadium in Rio on Sunday, and a main question for Brian Schottenheimer's team is how they will fare against the Ravens' offense.
Given the defensive struggles against the run with both running backs and quarterbacks through the first two weeks, what the Ravens duo of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry could do in Brazil is terrifying.
The key to winning this game for Dallas is to limit the pair's influence on the ground. You aren't going to stop them completely, but you can limit their impact.
Don't allow them to rip off multiple 20+ yard runs like Jaxson Dart and Jayden Daniels did because those are back breakers.
But that is exactly what Parker's defense has given up in the first two weeks, hence the bad matchup.
105.3 The Fan's Kevin Hageland stated that based on how the defense has looked in the first two weeks, it looms as a bad matchup against Jackson and Henry. ...
Something that owner Jerry Joned, surprisingly agrees with.
"Well, I agree with you," Jerry said. "Anytime you have to play face those two players you just mentioned and the Ravens, that's a bad matchup. And so we've got our work cut out for us and they've got a lot of incentives to play at their top level against us down there Sunday.
"So, it's a rough one."
I'm sorry, Jerry, what? You're not confident in your team going against Baltimore?
Well, not many in Cowboys Nation will disagree, based on what we've seen from the run defense in the first two games.
But there was improvement, albeit slightly, against the Washington Commanders, but the Ravens are a different beast and can easily make this a nightmare trip to Brazil for Dallas.
The defense knows what is coming. I'm sure the entire NFL world knows what's coming at Maracanã Stadium.
But knowing what's coming and stopping it are two completely different things.
The Cowboys will have a plan, but it remains to be seen if it is good enough to halt two of the NFL's best runners for four quarters on Sunday.
And Jerry isn't confident at all.
