Dez Bryant Fed Up Watching Cowboys Get Blown Out in Playoff Game vs. Packers

Dez Bryant is speaking for all Dallas Cowboys fans on Sunday. 

To the dismay of fans, the Cowboys have laid an egg in their wild-card round matchup against the Green Bay Packers, as America's Team was trailing by 20 points at the half and is currently down by more than three touchdowns in the fourth quarter. 

Cowboys fans are getting restless and even team owner Jerry Jones couldn't bear to watch at one point. Former receiver Dez Bryant vented his frustrations with the Cowboys on X, formerly Twitter, sending out a series of messages throughout the game. 

Not even an hour into the game, Bryant was imploring the Cowboys, who quickly fell into a 14–0 deficit, to “straighten up.” The ex-Dallas wideout, who made three Pro Bowls with the team, then seemingly called out Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy. 

Bryant's emotions about the game could best be summed up by his posts right before and after the Packers scored to make it 41—16 towards the end of the third quarter. 

Bryant went from being ready to place a live wager on the Cowboys to quickly stating that the game could be over. 

It’s hard to blame him for being so disgusted with how Dallas has played, given that this team seemed to have as good a shot as any recent Cowboys team to finally end the championship drought.
