The Cowboys' local television audience was up 155,676 homes from Wade Phillips' final game, a dreary Sunday night affair, to Jason Garrett's debut against the Giants last Sunday afternoon. Nothing like a lead to keep a Dallas-Fort Worth audience glued to their television sets.

The D-FW rating jumped from a 27.8 to a 33.8. Jerry Jones thanks you for taking the time.

Fox's Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston and Tony Siragusa work Sunday's noon game when the Detroit Lions visit Cowboys Stadium. The game will be broadcast to only 14 percent of the country – Texas, Oklahoma and the Detroit area.

It will be the first time that Johnston and crew will be working a game from Cowboys Stadium. It will also mark the first time this season a Cowboys game has not be called by a network's lead broadcasters. It will be back to a lead crew on Thanksgiving Day when Troy Aikman and Joe Buck work the New Orleans Saints-Cowboys game.

Pam Oliver, who works the sidelines with the Aikman-Buck crew, had a terrific sit-down with Jones on Fox's studio show last Sunday.

Best Oliver question: "Jerry, people are laughing at the Cowboys. Pointing, laughing and doing cartwheels over this whole mess. Is some of it of your own creation?"

Most interesting Jones response came when Oliver asked "How does losing cost you?" Responded Jones: "The way that I structured the Cowboys, we need to win ballgames. When we don't win, it can be very costly in many, many ways."
