Savor every last detail of Thursday's game as you read through what other fans had to say as they watched the Cowboys beat the Commanders on Thanksgiving.

That turned out to be a tasty Thanksgiving treat the Cowboys served yesterday, and here's your chance to re-live the Commanders game from other fans' perspective, understand how other fans view the Dallas Cowboys, witness the horror in people's reactions as they watch a couple of rookies shred one opponent after another, and read how other fans grudgingly, angrily, or dejectedly realize that the 2016 Cowboys are pretty good.

As usual, all quotes below are taken directly from the open game threads from the SB Nation team sites indicated in front of every comment. Some minor edits have been made to improve the overall legibility of the quotes and to satisfy the site guidelines of our board, but no other changes have been made, no commentary added.

First Quarter
Eagles Have to root for Dallas 2 weeks in a row. Sigh……

Commanders I have a really good feeling about this game. Commanders win 38-24.

Commanders Let's go spear that star!!!

Bears I like this guy's rendition of the national anthem on a trumpet. Beats the snot out of every lame-*** warbler I’ve ever heard sing it.

KICKOFF
Eagles Good Grief. They’re making that defense look like scrubs. Cowboys just are a monster team right now. Seahawks may have to handle them in the playoffs.
Posted by TayDS on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:40 PM
Bears Cowboys are good. Elliott is even better than advertised.
Posted by Mr_IrreleVince on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:40 PM
49ers Dallas has such a good situation with Prescott and Elliott.
Posted by kcpx123 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:40 PM
Seahawks Their line is just so good.
Posted by Seahawks1985 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:40 PM
Texans Jeez. This offense seems unstoppable.

(11:15) (Shotgun) E.Elliott up the middle for 4 yards, TOUCHDOWN.
Cowboys 7 - Commanders 0
Commanders Well that was fast.

Commanders Hate to say it but I played Elliott on all my DraftKing teams.

Posted by Baghdad on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:41 PM
Commanders A pair of rookies just did that to us...SMH
Posted by worldwidewes on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:43 PM
Eagles Man Elliott is so smooth running the ball. That guy's going to be a terror for years to come.
Posted by VinceB1193 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:43 PM
Bears Dynamic duo of Dak and Elliott..great draft.
Posted by TC53 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:43 PM
Dolphins Amazing what happens when you have the best OL in football.
Posted by Miamimaniac on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:43 PM
Patriots Patriots and Cowboys are in a league of their own on offense.
Posted by Questionablepatsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:44 PM
Rams Holy heck is the Cowboys line good. I’d fancy my chances of going through progressions or being able to hit a hole from behind that, and I am a short, out-of-shape feller.
Posted by Will not be defeated on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:45 PM
Giants There were actually people on BBV that was happy that Dallas chose Elliott at 4th....
Posted by giantsbizzybody1 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:47 PM

Posted by Fishslap 33 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:49 PM
Commanders Gotta audible out of that play...safety was sprinting up to line knowing what was coming.
Posted by capdog on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:51 PM
Commanders Isn't Sean Lee supposed to be hurt by this time in the season?
Posted by WestCoastHokie on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:53 PM
Commanders What kind of playcall was that garbage? 3rd and long and you do that?
Posted by emurda-haak on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:53 PM
(4:29) Washington 43 yard field goal is NO GOOD
Cowboys 7 - Commanders 0
Commanders Iced our own kicker.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:55 PM
Texans Did Gruden just successfully ice his own kicker? Watching at work, so only catching glimpses, but I swear that’s what just happened.
Posted by Free2shred00 on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:57 PM
Commanders 3rd and 15. Get off the field and get the mo back.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 4:58 PM
Commanders Good stuff. Now go back and score.

Texans O-line envy.
Posted by TEXSON on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:00 PM
Texans If the Cowboys focus on a defensive draft this season and are good at it they may be developing a dynasty.
Posted by TEXSON on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:04 PM



Second Quarter
Commanders Lets just waste plays down in the red zone.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:09 PM
Commanders That's why this team is the worst in the red zone!!!
Posted by bppjr on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:10 PM
Commanders Gruden is due for about a half dozen horrible play calls a game.
Posted by emurda-haak on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:11 PM
Eagles Washington don’t look so good.
Posted by Borg_Queen on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:11 PM
(14:08) Washington 24 yard field goal is GOOD.
Cowboys 7 - Commanders 3
Bears You should be able to award MVP to a position group, because Dallas' O-line would win it in a heartbeat.
Posted by Nomad30 on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:18 PM
Bears They'd sure block anyone else from getting it.
Posted by SomeGuyNamedDave on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:18 PM
Commanders I keep telling myself, we're only down by 4. Please Lord, no more injuries.
Posted by WMdSkinsFan on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:19 PM
Commanders Can't get off the field. It's killer. Pass rush needs to do something.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:19 PM
(8:02) D.Bailey 46 yard field goal is GOOD.
Cowboys 10 - Commanders 3
Commanders Could be much worse guys.

Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:37 PM
Eagles I haven't seen a dropped catch yet. It’s unfair how much our receivers stink.
Posted by 1BruceLeroy1 on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:37 PM
Commanders At most, we can only give up 3 here.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:42 PM
Commanders Way too many missed opportunities. Cowboys meanwhile look like they’re going to score another TD.

Posted by TattedRedskinsFan on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:46 PM
Eagles Funny how their 3rd receiver is better than our 1st.
Posted by phillyphenom20 on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:46 PM
Broncos Just shows what a good O line can do for a QB, and RB, and O.
Posted by azbroncomaniac on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:47 PM
Commanders We need to see the two feet in on that TD for a 31st time I think. 30 times just wasn’t enough.

Posted by capdog on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:54 PM

Commanders I'm the opposite, I will eat my feelings away.
Posted by Sean Qtip Guilliams on Nov 24, 2016 | 5:59 PM
Commanders This opening drive in the 3rd will determine the game imo.
Posted by FreezyBreeze on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:04 PM
Commanders This team is pitiful, they talk all that crap before the game then get their butts handed to them.
Posted by BigStef20 on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:07 PM
Commanders And don’t kick a 55 yard FG into the sun. Dummy.

Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:29 PM
Commanders Nice coverage on Witten there...
Posted by Fishslap 33 on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:30 PM
Eagles Witten just broke Ertz's career YAC with that one catch.
Posted by VinceB1193 on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:31 PM
Commanders D held. Something to be thankful for.
Posted by 1052skins on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:36 PM

Commanders Difference so far is the Dallas defense. They are outplaying our offense.
Posted by shally on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:37 PM
Commanders Wilcox Down. That could be big.
Posted by blushingcrow on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:43 PM
Commanders They have our run plays down cold. Need to run more play action.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:44 PM
Commanders Our O line is just getting destroyed on the obvious runs.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:48 PM
Commanders They are manhandling our O-line. Hard to be successful close to the goal line when you can't run it.
Posted by Rhamm21 on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:49 PM
Patriots I wish Pats had Sean Lee... That would be sweet.

Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:52 PM
TWO-POINT CONVERSION ATTEMPT. S.Lee intercepted the try attempt. ATTEMPT FAILS.
Cowboys 17 - Commanders 12
Commanders Stupid. Now if Dallas gets a FG, we have to score a TD and go for 2 again. Dumb.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:52 PM
Commanders Yeah, let's let him rumble for 20+ first run.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:57 PM
Commanders Why would you cover the rookie of the year?
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 6:58 PM
Commanders Well, let's hold them to 3 somehow so we can pray for another TD and a successful 2 point conversion.
Posted by Davethecapsfan on Nov 24, 2016 | 7:00 PM
Raiders I remember a few geniuses coming up with all these great reasons why Elliott wouldn't be good in the NFL.

Posted by BigStef20 on Nov 24, 2016 | 7:03 PM
Commanders Dak's no rookie. Boy, Dallas got lucky drafting him.
Posted by worldwidewes on Nov 24, 2016 | 7:04 PM
Seahawks The Cowboy OL is the real MVP. That OL the Cowboys have is so far ahead of everyone else that it is not even funny. You could argue they have 4 pro bowlers along the OL. They will be tough to beat if their OL stays healthy.

Eagles Dumbest onside ever. Guess he thought they can't stop them anyway.
Posted by Competitors by 2018 on Nov 24, 2016 | 7:13 PM
Dolphins That deep TD by Cousins was terribly underthrown. Jackson had to slow WAY down to catch it. Horrible pass. If the DB didn’t screw up, he either deflects it or picks it.

Commanders I know that the Skins don't have the best personnel but this front seven has been dreadful trying to contain Prescott.
Posted by FreezyBreeze on Nov 24, 2016 | 7:21 PM
Commanders This D was never really going to hold Dallas. It got a couple of stops, a FG… the O had to do much better.

Texans As I’ve said before, Dak Prescott seems to be doing everything right. He gets time behind the line to survey, then makes good decisions. Very few negative plays. That’s playoff football.
