It was the first time in NFL history that a game ended with that exact score – the league’s 1,087th unique final score.
The AT&T Stadium’s official X account posted the attendance on Monday.
But they blurred out one specific detail on the photo.
The scoreline on the jumbotron was obscured to avoid showing the embarrassing scoreline.
And it was quickly noticed and exposed by the Lions‘ account.
A post from the Lions read: “Is it us or is the scoreboard a little blurry?”
Fans were quick to comment, with one person writing: “They don’t like to be embarrassed by the score.”
Another said: “Imagine being so embarrassed by your team’s loss at home that you blur out the scoreboard.”
A third wrote: “Lmao I’m a Cowboys fan and this is hilarious. Cooked ‘em on and off the field.”
While a third quipped: “This is incredible!”
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones sent a clear message to coach McCarthy over his future after Sunday’s game.
He said: “We’ve got to assess and we’ve certainly got a bye week, but there’s nothing magic about a bye week.
“You can do some things differently within three days of some of the things that bit us out there today.
“This was very concerning and it was very humbling.
“It felt bad because of all of our great fans, especially the ones in the stadium and certainly the ones that are all about the Cowboys.”
