To say that Stephen A. Smith dislikes the Dallas Cowboys would be an understatement. Smith is a Washington fan and never misses the chance to troll the Dallas Cowboys franchise and their fans.
As the Dallas Cowboys went out in the Wild Card round yet again, Stephen A. Smith wasted no time in trolling them. Including this time, here are some of his best smackdowns of the Dallas Cowboys franchise.
Stephen A. Smith roasting the Dallas Cowboys
#1 - "I TOLD Y'ALL"
After the Dallas Cowboys failed to reach the NFC Championship game for yet another year, Stephen A. Smith was there to remind them what he had said at the beginning of the season. His savage takedown also included laughing at their expense.
“Didn’t I tell you," Smith said. "All year long, while everybody was raving about those boys in Big D, what did your boy Stephen A say? They ain’t going to even win a playoff game. Sure enough, right on schedule, right when it really counts, they crashed like a cheap tent in inclement weather.”
The Cowboys were horrid in the game, with 14 infractions costing them penalties. On top of that, there were some questionable coaching calls to say the least, none more so than the last play of the game where they went for a quarterback draw, only to see time run out on them before they could snap the ball.
Stephen A. Smith would have enjoyed the collapse, leaving Cowboys fans to wonder for another year what might have been.
#2 - "Thanksgiving this year is just..."
After the Washington Football Team thrashed the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving in the NFL last season, Stephen A. Smith took to Twitter in a fit of hysterical laughter.
While playing the rewind of the game, he paused at the moment when the scores were 33-16 and delivered a monolog.
“Do you see it?" Smith began. "Just when I thought that y'all couldn't even mess up anymore, y'all made my Thanksgiving… You Cowboys fans out there, it’s a tough night, isn't it? It's a tough night. Had a tough year. But the bottom line is, you all were talking smack. You thought you were gonna be in first place after tonight, didn’t you? You thought you were gonna be in first place? You thought (after?) they had Thanksgiving we’re gonna be in first place, but guess what? No can do!”
The Washington Football Team would go on to the playoffs by winning the NFC East with a 7-9 record. The Cowboys missed out with a 6-10 record. If only the Cowboys had beaten Washington in this game, they would have made it to the playoffs instead.
The Dallas Cowboys fall victim to Stephen A. Smith
#3 - "Here we go with these damn Dallas Cowboys"
Stephen A. Smith was not trolling the Dallas Cowboys here as much as seriously eviscerating them for hiring Mike McCarthy. But after what transpired this year, when the Dallas Cowboys lost to the San Francisco 49ers because of bad play calling and coaching, it definitely looks prescient.
He rightly pointed out that Mike McCarthy was past his sell-by date.
“From a resume perspective," Smith said, "I have no problem with him. My problem is: How’d you leave? What did you do the last time I saw you? My point is: Aaron Rodgers, one of the greatest quarterbacks we’ve ever seen… said ‘this is archaic'. You’re going to bring in a guy who was accused of being a guy who time has passed him by? That is the guy that you hire?"
But then again, he mentioned that the Dallas Cowboys could have looked at Urban Meyer. Perhaps Stephen A. Smith was secretly hoping that the Dallas Cowboys would have a season as bad as the Jacksonville Jaguars this year.
#4 - America's Team... No, not yet!
When the Green Bay Packers handed the Dallas Cowboys a 34-24 loss in 2019, Stephen A. Smith eschewed what he normally does, recording a video and trolling Cowboys fans digitally. This time, he decided to to get the fans in a conference room before openly taunting and mocking them.
He wore a cowboy hat and held a cigar as he relentlessly mocked the Dallas Cowboys. There were too many insults to count, but the one that would have stung the most was when he dismissed them as America's Team.
#5 - "Who remembers this?!?! I DO"
Who can forget the moment in 2007 when the Dallas Cowboys took on the Seattle Seahawks in the playoffs? With 1:19 remaining on the clock, the Cowboys had a chance to get ahead on a field goal while trailing 21-20. It was on a fourth down and inches on the Seahawks' one-yard line. What followed was Tony Romo mishandling the snap as the holder. The kicker failed to kick and Romo was held up short as he tried to salvage the situation.
Stephen A. Smith did not forget to remind Dallas Cowboys fans of the moment the two teams met again in the playoffs during the 2018-19 season. The Cowboys had the last laugh as they won the game, this time 24-22. Or did they? Because the LA Rams defeated them in the Divisional Round and they failed to reach the NFC Championship. Yet again!
