As we like to do after Cowboys wins, today we’re going to look at what fans of other NFL teams had to say while they were watching the Cowboys outplay the Miami Dolphins.

One question I’ve received with increasing frequency is why we can’t have a Trolling The Nation post after every game. Part of the answer is that unfortunately not every game is suitable for a TTN post. Often, when the Cowboys play in an early slot for example, most other fans are either busy watching their own team or debating how their own game ended, so there aren’t always a lot of comments about the Cowboys to be had. Today for example, we don’t have a lot of comments from other fan bases because many were busy watching their own team play. And the same holds true for many other teams that don’t show up in the summary below, some because they were busy watching other games, some because their blogs are not exactly a hotbed of commenting activity.

Still, a reader sent me a mail asking me to do a TTN for Sunday’s game, even if it was against a bottom-dweller like the Dolphins.

I miss the posts this year, as part of my ritual for the week is dialing up Trolling the Nation to see what all the other crybabies out there were saying about our Boys. I, for one, don’t think the quality really suffered last year. Some are better than others but your column is kinda like pizza. Even bad pizza is still pretty good. Not to say any of your posts were bad. I loved them all. I know you said you don’t want to make posts about bottom dwellers as the wins aren’t as impressive but your articles have always been top notch! Some of the quotes you put up are better than movie quotes and more memorable. “I saw Eli’s soul leave his body after that hit.” I won’t ever forget that one.

So Cowboys fans, we’ve got your pizza ready for you today. You’ll find that this edition of TTN probably feels like a standard pizza, but once you get to the end of the Cowboys game, you’ll find we used devilishly delicious toppings.

Enjoy.

Posted by dfs83 on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:43 PM Dolphins Would prefer a TD, obviously, but they're moving the ball better; that's a good thing. Posted by Dolfan Lee on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:41 PM (:58) MIA onside kick RECOVERED by MIA.PENALTY - No Play Dolphins Onside kick!! On the road no less…Woohoo! Posted by Bassanova on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:42 PM Eagles This Dak to Cooper connection is something we should be worrying about. It’s starting to be a huge problem.

Posted by cinmat3128 on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:49 PM Dolphins The Dolphins D line does know they’re supposed to get the QB right? It looks like they’re just trying to prevent him from running. Looked the same against ravens. Posted by Dstarok on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:52 PM It's all part of Graham Cracker's trickery. Posted by Heliumiami on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:57 PM (13:58) MIA Punts Dolphins Any way we can stop tackling Elliott at the line of scrimmage for a four-yard gain? Posted by ThatMan on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:58 PM (10:47) DAL Punts Dolphins Cowboys fans look stunned...almost like they thought the game would be over by now. Posted by Bassanova on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:00 PM Dolphins That should have been challenged Posted by dolfan52 on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:11 PM Dolphins You don't challenge when you're trying to lose Posted by MasterLomaxus on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:12 PM (5:51) MIA field goal is GOOD

This is totally watchable unlike the first two weeks. Go Fins! Go Rosen! Posted by Jecemis Joie on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:22 PM Texans Rosen looks great. I’m stoked for the guy. That’d be awesome for Miami if they didn’t have to take a QB next year. Posted by Nashmeister on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:27 PM (:31) K.Drake to DAL 7 for no gain. FUMBLES. RECOVERED by DAL-D.Lawrence.

Posted by Platipus on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:29 PM Saints Miami fumbles in the RZ…Dallas ball Posted by ZipCode70816 on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:29 PM Was on purpose. They saw that the Jets were trying to out-tank them and they can’t let that happen. Posted by Silentmode on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:31 PM Dolphins This' is how you properly tank. You play it tight, then make mind-numbing decisions at key moments. Posted by Farorefox on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:31 PM Dolphins Well, I guess this is the best of all worlds - we are starting to look good, but heavens, let's not accidentally WIN this!

We not only beat ourselves, but our mothers and wives and children too Posted by Heliumiami on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:35 PM Dolphins Well, the Dolphins definitely look better in week 3 than either of the first 2 weeks. Posted by Platipus on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:39 PM Dolphins We're gonna win this game! Callin' it! Posted by Bassanova on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:39 PM Dolphins Well.....we've given up fewer points than minutes played so far.....that's a good sign.... Posted by cinmat3128 on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:41 PM Dolphins Considering the missed FG and the fumble, there's a good chance we would be winning this game at this point.

Third Quarter Dolphins Defensive line gets NO pressure on the QB. NONE of our DBs can look good in this environment. Posted by Bassanova on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:50 PM (12:33) D.Prescott pass to A.Cooper for 19 yards, TOUCHDOWN.

Cowboys 17 - Dolphins 6 Dolphins Cowboys are awake now Posted by miracles can happen on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:51 PM Dolphins Amari Cooper has OWNED X. Howard today!

Posted by Francesco Pergolini on Sep 22, 2019 | 2:55 PM Dolphins 58 year old Witten is juking our young DBs out of their cleats. Yikes.

Cowboys 24 - Dolphins 6 Dolphins I am just SO glad that our coaching staff is composed of DEFENSIVE GENIUSES. Posted by Heliumiami on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:11 PM Dolphins Kind of like the Patriots game...Back to reality after a pretty good first half. Still see improvement though.

Posted by kidavid on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:25 PM Dolphins They say "this isn't over." Miami says "hold my beer."

Posted by dwanathan on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:30 PM Dolphins Rosen's going to get pulled by Flo for "body language detrimental to the team". Posted by Heliumiami on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:31 PM Dolphins Too light to stop Elliott running the clock Posted by dwanathan on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:38 PM Dolphins Elliott is out and his backup is in Posted by Platipus on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:41 PM (7:59) B.Maher 55 yard field goal is No Good (5:35) MIA-4-5-DAL 38 J.Rosen pass to M.Gesicki for -2 yards. Turover on downs. Dolphins [Team owner] Ross is trying to pretend he's interested in the game by using binoculars. Truth is, they are fake and filled with liquor. Only way to watch this game by now. Posted by Heliumiami on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:57 PM Dolphins Progress: we came in averaging 5 points/game......We leave averaging 5.3 points/game :blush: Posted by cinmat3128 on Sep 22, 2019 | 3:57 PM (3:50) T.Pollard left end for 16 yards, TOUCHDOWN.

Posted by HeISTheAX on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:07 PM This made me laugh. Wentz is not good enough to carry this team. We need him to protect the ball. his mechanics still look like crap and the ball is still sailing on him. He had plenty of open receivers on that drive with a decent pocket.

Posted by Revenge of Weapon X on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:28 PM Eagles Got Stafford out here looking like Russel Wilson Posted by "Snax" on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:30 PM Eagles This defense is just trash. Posted by EaglesFanatic80 on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:31 PM It has to be the scheme. How many corners have started for the eagles last 3 years and it never matters they ALL get burned.

Posted by Jammity Man on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:32 PM Eagles Our front 4 can’t get pressure against anyone. Posted by TheMammoth on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:32 PM Eagles Stafford w all day to throw Posted by OrlandoBird on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:32 PM Eagles Ronald Darby being targeted.

Darby picked on all day Posted by Justyn L. on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:36 PM Second Quarter Eagles Our defensive sucks because of our terrible defensive scouting and targeting old players. Defensive free agents signing and terrible drafting under Roseman-Pederson Era. Posted by Phoenix X Maximus on Sep 22, 2019 | 1:39 PM (14:12) K.Johnson for 1 yard, TOUCHDOWN
