As we've done repeatedly in the past, today we're going to look at what fans of other NFL teams had to say while they were watching the Cowboys beat the 49ers on Sunday. 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.
We usually reserve these Trolling The Nation posts for big wins, preferably against a division opponent. But being as starved for wins as we are, we're indulging a bit in the TTN posts this year, even if it comes at a price: 49ers tears just don't taste as sweet as those of a divisional rival. Also, because many fans had their attention focused elsewhere during the Cowboys game yesterday, this TTN is a bit light on quantity.
Enjoy it anyway.
| First Quarter | |
| 49ers | I’m going to talk so much trash at the office tomorrow if we pull this off vs the Cowboys |
| Posted by DallasNiner on Oct 22, 2017 | 3:47 PM | |
| 49ers | Fact: The Cowboys have NEVER beaten the 49ers when future HOF CJ Beathard is the starter |

| 49ers | About time for someone else to be the cause of our loss..... |

(12:46) E.Elliott up the middle for 1 yard, TOUCHDOWN. Cowboys 7 - 49ers 0 |
|
| 49ers | I hate how many Cowboys fans there are |
| Posted by Joe Montana Is GOAT on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:14 PM | |
| 49ers | Christmas came 2 months early for the Cowboys. That TD came giftwrapped. |
| Posted by LizardState on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:14 PM | |
| 49ers | Not a good week to be playing against Elliott in fantasy. |
| Posted by NoHero08 on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:14 PM | |
| Eagles | Dallas goes 3 and out then is just gifted their first TD.....great |
| Posted by Flash in The Pan Prescott on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:15 PM | |
| 49ers | I just tune in and we're down by 7. How did that happen? |
| Posted by El Shorts on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:16 PM | |
| 49ers | That was a decent throw |
| Posted by BoldinReborn on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:18 PM | |
| 49ers | Except that it was too far and therefore not a good throw |
| Posted by EFordLA on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:19 PM | |
| 49ers | Siren Song of the Niner fan: another 3 and out |

| SF PUNT | |
| 49ers | Why don't they just keep feeding it to Elliott. He gets 5 every time he carries. |
| Posted by EFordLA on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:24 PM | |
| 49ers | Is this going to be another game where the offense plays 15 minutes? |
| Posted by BoldinReborn on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:26 PM | |
|
(7:57) E.Elliott right guard for 25 yards, TOUCHDOWN. Cowboys 14 - 49ers 0 |

| 49ers | Now I need liquor. |
| Posted by BronxBlazer on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:29 PM | |
| 49ers | Not looking like the best 0-6 team of all time. |
| Posted by Leo's Thinwhistle on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:30 PM | |
| 49ers | I hate that eating thing Ezekiel does |
| Posted by OziNiner on Oct 22, 2017 | 4:32 PM | |
| 49ers | I am happy Zeke is playing. It exposes our fraud defense. Their OL is the best and that is what we need. |

(4:33) SF field goal is GOOD. Cowboys 14 - 49ers 3 |
|

(10:33) (Shotgun) D.Prescott pass deep right to J.Witten for 18 yards, TOUCHDOWN. Cowboys 20 - 49ers 3 |
|
| 49ers | No denying it, Dak throws a nice pass |
| Posted by baykid415 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:02 PM | |
| 49ers | Whelp |
| Posted by El Shorts on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:02 PM | |
| Eagles | The Cowboys could all be drunk and still win this game. Niners are absolutely rolling over and dying. They play with piss-poor effort and have the team speed of a snail. |
| Posted by 46RockBlitz on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:02 PM | |
| Eagles | The same team that lost by 2 to the Rams, 3 to Seattle, 3 to the Cardinals, and by 2 to the Skins…..yea seems like they always play with no effort. Maybe Dallas is just playing better ? |
| Posted by daniel1234 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:02 PM | |
| 49ers | They will score 50 |
| Posted by BoldinReborn on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:03 P | |
| 49ers | Wow. What a grab |
| Posted by HashtagMafioso on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:03 PM | |
| 49ers | Cowboys gonna rest their starters by half time lol |

| 49ers | Nice throw |
| Posted by willcaliblue on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:03 PM | |
| 49ers | I know the Dallas O-line is good, but this D-line looks like dog poop today |
| Posted by BoldinGateBridge on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:04 PM | |
| Chiefs | At least they don't have a big strong WR who can dominate at jump balls. Wait … crap. |
| Posted by HatCreekCattleCmpny on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:04 PM | |
| 49ers | We lost this game when Taylor fumbled |
| Posted by Joe Montana Is GOAT on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:05 PM | |
| 49ers | We lost this game when the schedules were announced. |
| Posted by ChipNelly on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:05 PM | |
| 49ers | We lost this game three years ago when we retained Trent Baalke. |
| Posted by mikeymike4949 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:05 PM | |
| 49ers | We lost this game three years ago when we fired Jim Harbaugh |
| Posted by jjcool00 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:05 PM | |
| 49ers | We lost this game when the Yorks stole the team from the great Eddie D. |
| Posted by ChipNelly on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:05 PM | |
| 49ers | So let's review the Cowboys shall we: Top tier dominating WR, HoF TE, All-Pro RB, All pro QB gets injured and the backup is just as good if not better. Ok Jerry is the devil or he made a deal with the devil. |
| Posted by sfsuphysics on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:07 PM | |
| (7:18) C.Beathard sacked at SF 36 for -8 yards (T.Crawford). | |
| 49ers | Do you not see the giant man running for your face, C.J.? |
| Posted by willcaliblue on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:10 PM | |
| 49ers | Our interior O-line can't create running lanes which is why Hyde, a power back, constantly needs to bounce outside where he can’t make gains |
| Posted by fluffypillow on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:11 PM | |

| DAL PUNT | |
| Eagles | Dan Bailey out. Niners need to take advantage of that. |
| Posted by Teddy Broosevelt on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:20 PM | |
| 49ers | If we score a TD we can challenge in the 2nd half |
| Posted by McCoven on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:22 PM | |
| Eagles | If the 9ers score a TD this drive, this games back on. Especially with Bailey out. PLEASE blow it, Dallas |
| Posted by HazyBird on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:23 PM | |
| (:46) C.Beathard sacked at DAL 5, (D.Lawrence). FUMBLES, RECOVERED by DAL-D.Lawrence at DAL 19. | |
| 49ers | Oy vey |
| Posted by DallasNiner on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:27 PM | |
| 49ers | Maybe we should just kick a FG as soon as we get in range |
| Posted by EFordLA on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:27 PM | |

| Posted by Boardname5533 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:29 PM | |
| 49ers | Where are the 47% who voted this team will make the playoffs in a year? |
| Posted by CA530 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:30 PM | |
| 49ers | Is our oline getting destroyed? Just checked boxscore :disappointed: |

| Falcons | Damn, Zeke. That is all. |
| Posted by TimeStandsStill on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:54 PM | |
| 49ers | At least we are not going to lose by one score this game |
| Posted by EFordLA on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:55 PM | |
| 49ers | At least we don't have to worry about losing by only 3 points or less |
| Posted by Hydethemasses on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:55 PM | |
| Raiders | Zeke 3rd TD on 72 yd screen pass. SF looking to the end the streak of close losses with a blowout one. |

| Posted by 49erfactor on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:57 PM | |
| 49ers | This L is in the bag. And the Giants are winning! The long-awaited 2 games cushion is about to happen. |
| Posted by glib1 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:58 PM | |
| 49ers | But the Browns, oh, the Browns, they are unbeatable. |
| Posted by glib1 on Oct 22, 2017 | 5:58 PM | |
| Eagles | Could a 49er/Browns game end in a 0-0 tie? |
| Posted by 17thandShunk on Oct 22, 2017 | 6:00 PM | |
| Eagles | Probably turns into a 55-53 shootout somehow |

|
| 49ers | Dallas is the first very good offensive team we have faced. This is the result. We are frauds. |
| Posted by 49erfactor on Oct 22, 2017 | 6:17 PM | |

|
(6:19) (Shotgun) C.Beathard left tackle for 4 yards, TOUCHDOWN. Cowboys 40 - 49ers 10 |
|
| 49ers | You have to love that the game is so bad that the announcers haven’t been talking about the actual game for nearly any of the 4th quarter. In fact, they just joked about reading the credits with more than 6 minutes left in the game. |
| Posted by themaskedpooler on Oct 22, 2017 | 6:46 PM | |
| 49ers | Now their backups are going to kick what's left of our ass. |
| Posted by NYners on Oct 22, 2017 | 6:51 PM | |
| 49ers | Garbage time TD for C.J., but I’m glad he got one. Lay back time. Cowboys should bring in the 3rd string and have mercy on the guy. |
| Posted by james mcbrayer on Oct 22, 2017 | 6:51 PM | |
| Bears | SportsCenter just showed Newton's postgame outfit. Holy crap, he looked like a Pakistani limo driver/pimp in the late ’70s. |
