Jerry Jones Was Hyped After the Cowboys Recovered an Onside Kick
The Dallas Cowboys completed an incredible comeback on Sunday to snatch a win away from the Atlanta Falcons. A most critical part of that comeback was an onside kick Dallas improbably recovered with 1:49 to go in the game. Jerry Jones was fired up when his team grabbed the ball.
Here's Jerry celebrating:

The Cowboys trailed the Falcons 39-24 with less than five minutes remaining and managed to win the game. Dak Prescott hit Dalton Schultz for a touchdown with 4:57 to go and wound up scoring on a one-yard sneak with 1:49 to go to cut Atlanta's lead to 39-37. Then somehow, the Cowboys recovered this onside kick:

That's what prompted Jones' celebration.
The Cowboys proceeded to drive the ball and Greg Zuerlein drilled a 46-yard field goal to win it.
The Cowboys were down 15 with less than 5 minutes left. Then they stormed back to beat the Falcons.
