A user who thinks college teams are better than the Cowboys. They are also mad because in the playoffs last season; the Cowboys faced the 49ers in a wildcard match-up. The San Francisco 49ers defeated their rivals by a 23-17 win.
It’s crazy how you can find high school teams more disciplined than this squad. Cost us a playoff game last year and looks like nothing has changed. That’s RIDICULOUS!! I blame this on bad coaching!

Well, humor is the best way to hide one’s sadness. This user did just that! They made a reference to the nursery rhyme. Bits of flags, bits of flags, lying on the floor.

The reactions are understandable given fans expect a lot from the team. Prescott and Ezekiel could bring what the team so desperately need. However, it was only a preseason game. Many can only hope for the players to charge themselves up and bring a revolution!
