How Bout Them Cowboys.......
 
As a die hard Eagles fan........I am LOVEing it!

We are Eagles first and Packers fans second in my house.
Nobody gave the Packers a chance in this game and my wife did not want to watch and did not watch because she did not want to see her Packers get destroyed.
I have been saying for some time that the Pack could surprise everyone with a win in Dallas. And thankfully they did. Now if only the Eagles could pull off a win against Tampa......

It's always a beautiful thing to see the Cowboys get destroyed.

I say the same everytime a high grade PSA card is shown to be altered. It just brings a HUGE smile to my face. Says the disgruntled Cowboys fan.:rolleyes::)

The Cowboys are sort of the "trimmed PSA 10" of football teams, at least recently...

Yep can't argue with that. They look amazing until you get past the label and look at the actual product.

If the Eagles can't beat Tempa Bay I think you might want to reconsider saying you are an Eagles fan outloud.

The Eagles couldn't beat Arizona so that ship may have already sailed, but I'm still an Eagles fan. It's just my expectations for tonight are very low.

Cowboys fan here

Very disappointed, but that happens.

If you would have told me between the cowboys and Rangers, a team is going to bring home a championship, I would have fell out of my chair.

So no reason to be down, we’ll be back next year!

Well, maybe not all the cowboy staff will be there haha

What really gets me is that Dan Quinn’s D let up 48 points

Congrats to the Pack, heckuva game!

Was the Eagles collapse the biggest in sports history?

I don't recall a team being 10-1, heading toward home field advantage throughout, and not only being a Super Bowl contender, but looking like a virtual lock to win the Super Bowl to such an epic collapse.

Maybe the 1969 Cubs collapse.

Eagles fans get those bags over your heads.

The 1986 Jets started 10-1 Media playing up a Giants Jets Super Bowl. Jets lost all their remaining games finishing 10-6.

They did manage to win a wild card game.

The 1993 Dolphins won on thanksgiving day on the Famous Leon Lett Gaff to move to 9-2. They proceeded to lose all their remaining games and miss the playoffs.

After watching the Eagles the past 6 weeks, I did not expect much last night. And since I was not expecting much of anything from them, it stings less because of the Cowboys loss where they were expected to go a lot further. So all I can say is...........GO PACK GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely one of the biggest collapses in Philly sports history. I'm not sure if it's as bad as the 1964 Phillies since the Eagles did make the playoffs although they played like they didn't really want to be there. Terrible play calling to go along with poor execution.

My daughter loved the shot of the 3 fans with bags over their heads near the end of the game. They came better prepared than the Eagles did.

‘51 Dodgers

‘64 Phillies

‘78 Red Sox

Oh yeah…and there was this Yankees team that couldn’t close out a series when they were up 3-0.
