Dallas Cowboys fans already thought they got screwed heavily during the Eagles game, and this video will not help matters.
The Eagles improved to 8-1 going into the bye week after the 28-23 win over Dallas in what was one of the craziest finishes of the year. The Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys game had all the drama you could ask for as they went back and forth until the very end and the game was not without controversy.
Cowboys fans pointed out several times that the Eagles were the beneficiary of some favorable calls on the night.
One particular moment that happened during the game has fans infuriated as one ref could be seen in a long embrace with Philadelphia Eagles safety Kevin Byard.
In reality, Byard was assessed a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty in a scuffle and the ref was trying to de-escalate the situation.
Byard had quite the game as he poured in nine tackles on the night.

Still, something about this engagement between the player and the referee did not sit well with fans.
Hurts showed out against the Cowboys, going 17 of 23 for 207 yards and two touchdowns while adding 36 yards and a touchdown with his legs.
The win moved him to 25-2 in his last 27 regular season starts.
The 25-year-old quarterback already came into the game dealing with a lingering bone bruise in his knee and he took a big hit from Micah Parsons which sent him limping into the locker room at halftime. Despite the injury, Hurts came back out for the second half and immediately went to work.
Luckily for Hurts, the Eagles have a bye week coming up for the team to rest and get healthy before a Monday Night Football matchup in two weeks with the Kansas City Chiefs.
