News: BTB: Trolling The Nation: Cowboys @ Commanders Reloaded

[NewsBot]

Savor every last detail of Sunday's game as you read through what other fans had to say as they watched the Dallas Cowboys beat the Washington Commanders 24-23.

As we've done repeatedly in the past, today we're re-living yesterday's game by taking a peek at what the fans of other teams had to say while they were watching the Cowboys eke by the Commanders. Because the Cowboys were playing in the crowded 1:00 pm ET slot, most of our fellow NFL fans were too busy lamenting their own losses or celebrating their owns wins from the early games - or simply didn't care about Dallas at Washington - to comment much on the game, but the Commanders fans made up for that.

Disclaimer: All quotes are taken directly from the open game threads from the SB Nation team sites as indicated in front of every comment. This is not intended to call out any of the posters, it's all in good fun. Some minor edits have been made to improve the overall legibility and to meet the site guidelines of our board, but no other changes have been made, no commentary added.

In the past, I've received some questions asking why there are never any Cowboys fans in these threads. Two reasons: One, if you are a Cowboys fan and watched the game, you probably remember exactly how you felt during the game - no need for a rehash. Two, if you really want to see what other Cowboys fans said, you can always read through the open threads for the game here on BTB.

Packers Romo magic? Lol
by BirdDogUni on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:06 PM
49ers Wow. Romo may be a choke artist, but he just made that Commanders D look even worse than they are.
by Nick Bays on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:06 PM
Commanders And we're wasting time with field goals
by CJHutch on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:07 PM

by Zane Hashmi on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:07 PM

Commanders Same old crap. Why do we expect anything different?
by foolsrushand.hannityin on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:20 PM

Commanders Someone named Clutts fumbles the ball...
by HogHunter on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:37 PM
Raiders Romo can be so good. Why must he choke so often?
by raiders797 on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:41 PM
Commanders Nasty TD allergy they've developed
by hscer on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:42 PM
Commanders Hard to believe, but some teams actually go entire drives without a penalty
by CJHutch on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:42 PM
Commanders Dallas had to waste a timeout. Weird when it happens to someone else.
by iH8dallas on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:43 PM
Commanders If they kick a FG here I'll have a bowel movement.
by iH8dallas on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:44 PM
Commanders We make this so hard. Other teams score in these situations

by jrhooo on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:55 PM
Commanders Garcon is taking Brandon Carr’s lunch money.
by SGTskinsfan on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:56 PM
Commanders Carr is being devoured alive. Don’t get cute, keep throwing to 88
by LastAfricanHero on Dec 22, 2013 | 2:56 PM

Raiders You guys think it sucks for us a Raiders Fan but the Cowboys break their fans hearts every week what ever it takes to hurt their fans they will do
by Micheal Y on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:03 PM
Commanders Romo went down like a 40 year old qb on that sack
by hscer on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:05 PM
Commanders Love that they are passing.
by HilltopperHog on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:05 PM
Commanders i cant believe theyre STILL not running it. Jeez.
by DeadheadSkins on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:06 PM
Commanders Commanders have all the momentum is scary
by johnwallposterizes on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:06 PM
Packers Clearly the Cowboy's coaching staff is immune to external pressure. It’s kind of impressive, actually
by Fred Hofstetter on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:07 PM
Commanders We have the worst clock management ever
by WestCoastHokie on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:09 PM
Commanders Momentum? Oh here you go. We don’t want it
by Turtle Roar on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:09 PM

PENALTY on DAL-J.Wilcox, Unnecessary Roughness, 15 yards, enforced at 50.​

Eagles HAHAHAHA
by goldomatic on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:09 PM
Commanders Our Bacon = Saved. Thanks JJ Wilcox!
by Redskins329 on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:10 PM

by CJHutch on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:12 PM
Commanders Wish we had a touchdown on that gift late hit
by HilltopperHog on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:12 PM
Seahawks Guys, Dallas is imploding today. If the Commanders win and the Eagles beat the Bears, next week’s Dallas-Philly game is meaningless.
by DaeguDave on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:12 PM​

Fourth Quarter & Post-Game​

Commanders Now we get the 4th to piss it down our legs.
by jmauthe on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:13 PM

by Turtle Roar on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:15 PM
Seahawks Between the Cowboys blog and Lions blog lately. Not sure which set of fans are more miserably frustrated with their teams.
by seafan4good on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:18 PM
Commanders Can we please stop them?! I have no faith that we will, you just gotta hand it off to get it.
by Redskins329 on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:26 PM

4-6-WAS 40 (9:06) (Shotgun) T.Romo pass short middle to C.Beasley to WAS 20 for 20 yards​

by 17thandShunk on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:29 PM
Commanders Ridiculous
by CJHutch on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:29 PM
Commanders how open can you be
by hscer on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:29 PM
Commanders and he was that open for like 3 seconds
by hscer on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:29 PM
Eagles I hate zone coverage
by SleepingDuck on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:30 PM
Seahawks I was hoping that Romo wouldn't convert there. So I could call them a disgrace. Well, I guess I can anyway. Cowboys, you are a disgrace!
by apsve on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:30 PM

(6:14) D.Bailey 25 yard field goal is GOOD.
Cowboys 17 - Commanders 23​

Commanders All right. Time to put this one away
by Seer on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:33 PM
Eagles This is the first time I've rooted for anybody in Washington in years. Don’t let me down!
by 17thandShunk on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:39 PM
Eagles Perfectly set up for Romo time.
by NCeagle on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:40 PM
Commanders Our best hope is a clutch romo interception.
by Redskins329 on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:41 PM
Commanders Good thing we didn't go for 2 on either TD. Because losing by one is so much worse than losing by two
by CJHutch on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:42 PM
Commanders Not sure we can count on Romo
by HilltopperHog on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:43 PM
Packers Another shot for Romo to blow it here. Down 6, on the road, season on the line.
by mike_o on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:43 PM
Seahawks We going to see the great Tony Romo throw a pick in the final 3 mins?
by dilletaunt on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:44 PM
Commanders Here we go. Pulling defeat from the jaws of victory since 1993.
by WestCoastHokie on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:45 PM
49ers Romo almost went Romo. Let the countdown begin.
by Thor0640 on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:45 PM
Commanders its been romos ability to extend plays!!
by DeadheadSkins on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:46 PM
Commanders Might be better off just letting them get the TD right away. More time left to try and score at the end.
by Seer on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:46 PM
49ers So many Dallas fans in Washington... This is ridiculous. I hate watching the Cowboys games because they always have so many fans in the stadium.
by Nick Bays on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:46 PM
Commanders Romo not turning it over. Murray scoring next play
by hscer on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:49 PM
Eagles It's very difficult to hold a lead in this situation. When a team is down by one possession, with plenty of time left, passing on every play, with 4 downs to work with…. it seems they score more often than they don’t.
by MikeCampy on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:49 PM
Commanders If we lose this, fire everyone. Everyone.
by foolsrushand.hannityin on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:50 PM
Eagles It sucks rooting for a team you hate
by stinkypants on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:50 PM
Commanders I don't know why we aren't letting them score. We’ve never forced a goal line stand before this season. And it is 3rd Down. Should let them score.
by Jake Nazar on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:52 PM
49ers I think the Commanders should let the Cowboys score here
by FromCtoShining(Blue)C on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:52 PM

by Discodc on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:59 PM
Commanders What a play by tony romo!
by DeadheadSkins on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:59 PM
Seahawks Am I the only one who feels bad for Romo sometimes? He’s such a likable guy, and very talented, and has to put up with so much crap from fans (of both the Boys and other teams) who think the QB is the be-all and end-all of football. I might even cheer for the Cowboys at this point.
by djafrot on Dec 22, 2013 | 3:59 PM

by germinator on Dec 22, 2013 | 4:03 PM
49ers Time for Romo to check out of the neel down and throw a pick.
by Thor0640 on Dec 22, 2013 | 4:03 PM
Commanders Are we done pretending Cousins is like a viable starter?
by Don Killuminati on Dec 22, 2013 | 4:05 PM
Commanders We need to embrace the crappyness of this franchise. Like Cubs fans. We’ve got the rest of Dan Snyders life to deal with this, might as well enjoy it.
by NittanyBlueHen on Dec 22, 2013 | 4:13 PM
