As if Falcons fans needed another heartbreaking loss to add to their nightmares, they got one Sunday when the team let the Cowboys overcome a 20-point deficit to win in the closing seconds.
This was the kind of game that sticks with you for all the wrong reasons. Atlanta played so well in the first half that when Dallas kicked a game-winning field goal that put them up, 40-39, it was hard to even process what happened.
As you can imagine, the vitriol among Falcons fans was posted all over Twitter. Let’s take a look at some of the best tweets, including one fan sending his resignation letter to the team.
Today was the last straw. Please respect my decision. I'm open to team recruiters.
Thank you @dallascowboys and @dak for helping me come to this life-changing decision. #ATLvsDAL #DALvsATL #CowboysNation #Falcons pic.twitter.com/2ZveNQkyvU

The #Cowboys held a lead against the #Falcons for exactly zero seconds.
Still got a win.

Only the #Falcons can have a 99.9% chance to win and still blow it. pic.twitter.com/ddnWxKJ3Q1

I would fire Dan Quinn IF* I’m Arthur Blank. This loss is unacceptable, unforgivable.
