The Dallas Cowboys were punting this game before it ever began. With quarterback Dak Prescott out for the season, Dallas stars Zack Martin and Trevon Diggs didn’t even make the trip to Washington. Tight end Jake Ferguson and No. 2 receiver Brandin Cooks were also out.
Yet, somehow, the reeling Cowboys dominated the Commanders for much of the game, and no matter how many times Dallas tried to give Washington the advantage, the Commanders had none of it.
Dallas snapped its five-game losing streak, defeating Washington 34-26 in arguably the wildest NFL game of the season. The Commanders blocked a field and a punt yet missed two extra points and a field goal and allowed two kickoff returns for touchdowns.
Washington had a chance to tie it late and sent the game into overtime after quarterback Jayden Daniels’ miracle 86-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Terry McLaurin. Unfortunately, kicker Austin Seibert missed second PAT.
It’s the Commanders’s third straight loss and X — formerly Twitter — was fed up.
Here are some of the top social media reactions after Sunday’s loss.
