Green Bay Packers news: After finishing the regular season with a 12-5 record and tied for the very best record in the entire NFC, the Dallas Cowboys had some extremely high hopes in the playoffs this year.
Unfortunately for them, they were pitted against the Green Bay Packers in the NFL Wildcard Round. Despite the fact that the Cowboys were still considered the heavy favorites to progress to the next round, the Packers had other ideas in mind.
Green Bay Packers Send Cowboys Fans Packing
The Packers hit the ground running in this one. They drew first blood in the first quarter courtesy of an Aaron Jones rushing touchdown in the first quarter. They kept the foot on the gas in the second with a massive 20-point quarter to end the half with a 27-7 lead.
In their defense, the Cowboys did all they could to keep themselves in the game. Towards the end of the third quarter, however, Green Bay had already amassed a seemingly insurmountable 48-24 lead.
At that point, even the Dallas fans in attendance at the AT&T Stadium knew that this game was already out of hand. So much so, that more than a few heartbroken supporters started heading to the exits:

You have to note that these fans paid good money to watch this game and that they started leaving with a full quarter still to play. This speaks volumes of how bad the Cowboys were on Sunday night.
Unfortunately for Cowboys fans, their utter misery was celebrated by the trolls on the mean streets of Twitter:
