TWO of the Fox NFL Sunday’s stars weren’t afraid to make fun of the Dallas Cowboys on live television.
Michael Strahan and Rob Gronkowski roasted the Cowboys’ 3-6 start to the season during the Week 11 edition of the sports program.

The Fox NFL Sunday panel was given the task of analyzing the Cowboys’ Monday Night Football matchup versus the Houston Texans.
But before the assignment, the program displayed clips of Gronkowski enjoying himself alongside Shaquille O’Neal at the live Netflix broadcast of the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight on Friday night.
The event took place at AT&T Stadium, home of the Cowboys, and host Curt Menefee pointed out that the NFL team hasn’t been entertaining.
That caused Gronkowski to mock the Cowboys, who currently have a four-game losing streak.

“Here’s a fun fact: Jake Paul has more victories than the Dallas Cowboys do at their own stadium this year,” the New England Patriots legend said.
Gronkowski referenced the fact that Paul’s win over Tyson means he has more wins than the Cowboys franchise at their home venue.
Jerry Jones’ Cowboys are 0-4 at their home confines.
Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long were stunned at Gronkowski’s roast on the franchise.
“I’m only talking true facts, ladies and gentlemen,” Gronk continued.
He then said that the Paul-Tyson fight was a “show”, similar to the Cowboys’ product throughout the year.
Strahan then added his take, agreeing with Gronkowski that the Cowboys are a “show”, but more of the “dud” variety, similar to the Friday night bout.
The fight peaked at 65 million streams and was one of the most-watched fights of all time.
However, the lackluster fight consisted of just 375 combined punches thrown.
And viewers experienced freezing, buffering, and resolution problems, as Netflix displayed the bout to their millions of subscribers without charging extra fees.

Nonetheless, the Cowboys will hope to tie the 27-year-old Paul in the amount of 2024 victories at AT&T Stadium on Monday night.
They will be without quarterback Dak Prescott, who underwent season-ending surgery on his hamstring last week.
The Cowboys will start Cooper Rush, who passed for just 45 yards in last week’s 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
He also lost two fumbles in the contest.
They will be playing the Texans, who lead the AFC South with a 6-4 record.
