If you've been around this site long enough, you know that here at BTB we like to celebrate a big win by going trolling on other SB Nation sites and looking at what the fans of other teams had to say while they were watching the Cowboys game.
Technically, the game against the Eagles on Sunday shouldn't count as a big win, as these were two 3-5 teams desperately trying to stay alive. But who cares? The Cowboys beat the Eagles resoundingly in Philadelphia and that's not something that happens every day.
A little further down, you can relive the Cowboys - Eagles game via the 'play-by-play' in the open game threads of our sister SB Nation sites. Unfortunately, most of our fellow fans were too buys lamenting their losses or celebrating their wins from earlier in the day - or simply didn't care about Dallas at Philly - to comment much on the game. But the Eagles fans more than made up for that.
All quotes below are taken directly from the open game threads from the SB Nation team sites as indicated in front of every comment. This is all meant in good fun and not meant to call anybody out.
Significant edits have been made to make a lot of the comments compliant with the language policy on our site, but no other changes have been made, no commentary added. If you have seen a post like this before, you know what to expect. If you haven't seen one before, or would like to read more, I've added links to previous posts of this kind at the very bottom of this post.
If you're wondering why there are no comments by Cowboys fans in these threads, it's quite simple: One, if you are a Cowboys fan and watched the game, you probably remember exactly how you felt yesterday - 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.

| by dterpfan on Nov 11, 2012 6:38 PM EST | |
| Bears | You know, If I was Romo, I'd ask my O-line to let a few rushers through so I could elude them and throw for 25 yards again. |
| by northernsails on Nov 11, 2012 6:41 PM EST | |
| (:04) (Shotgun) T.Romo pass deep right to D.Bryant for 30 yards, TOUCHDOWN. P13 The Replay Assistant challenged the pass completion ruling, and the play was Upheld. |

| by groot on Nov 11, 2012 6:40 PM EST | |
| Eagles | If you're going to take a penalty, at least make sure he can't catch it. |
