Glare at AT&T Stadium Sparks Controversy as Dallas Cowboys Suffer Losses, Debate Over Design Flares Up

As the Dallas Cowboys’ season unravels with a string of losses, their latest defeat has revived a debate about the $1.2 billion AT&T Stadium. During Sunday’s 34-6 loss to Philadelphia, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb struggled with sunlight, losing a key pass while running a crossing route, which led to an incompletion and helped prevent the Cowboys from scoring, according to

Lamb’s frustration was evident as he gestured to his eyes on the sidelines following the play, indicating that the stadium’s design, which features an east-west alignment, was to blame. In a statement obtained by

, Lamb didn’t mince words about the incident: “I couldn’t see the ball. Couldn’t see the ball, at all. The sun.” When asked if curtains could be a solution, the receiver emphatically answered, “Yes. One thousand percent.”

The glare at AT&T Stadium has been a long-standing issue, but Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has repeatedly dismissed it. Despite the ongoing complaints, including after the recent loss, Jones remains unconcerned. In an interview with the

Associated Press

, he said, “By the way, we know where the sun is going to be when we flip the coin, so we do know where the damn sun is going to be in our own stadium. Let’s just tear the damn stadium down and build another one. Are you kidding me?”

The Cowboys are also facing the possibility of quarterback Dak Prescott needing season-ending surgery, adding to their troubles as they’ve now lost five consecutive home games. Head coach Mike McCarthy focused on gameplay issues rather than the stadium’s design, saying, “You can’t win games turning the ball over five times. I don’t give a (expletive) who lines up. So that’s the part we got to get right,” according to the
