‘EMBARRASSING!’ - Stephen A. goes on a Cowboys RANT after the loss to the 49ers | First Take 

Dak is blaming the umpire/ref/official and credits the fans at throwing trash from the stands. He doesn't want to own it. He doesn't want any blame. It shouldn't come down to that play. You lost, Dak. You weren't good enough.

Stephen A in absolute paradise today on his first day back.

This play will forever be the most embarrassing but yet funny postseason loss in NFL history lmao

Stephen A’s take on anointing people who aren’t worthy is one of his best takes for a while!

75 million dollar quarterback blaming officials in a playoff game is pitiful

Jalen Hurts: I didn’t do a good enough job, no excuses, need to be better Dak Prescott: fans should throw things at referees

I'm a Cowboys fan and I do not like Stephen A Smith but I have to admit when he's right. He's been 100% correct about the Dallas Cowboys all season long. He knew.

3:05" Fools like you" I know that kinda hurted Michael 🤣

Watching people cry that it was over in the _3rd quarter_ was hilarious to me.

Stephen A killed this segment 💯 spitting facts 😂🤣🤣😂

They were in hail mary range with 14 seconds left. That was enough for 2 plays but chose to run instead. Whoever called that play should be fired immediately!

I don’t know what Dak thought he would accomplish by running up the middle of the field with 11 seconds left

Michael Irvin took it like a winner though, such a gentleman, respect.

Exactly; Dak completely let himself down blaming the umpire. Way worse than the mistake.

I said it last night to my Cowboy Fan friends..."Jerry Jones has that whole org and fanbase living in the 90's."

Stephen A came ready to kill the Cowboys franchise

I'm glad Stephen A is healthy, well and back to business!

The Cowboys continue to be the biggest joke of the year. 🤣

Prescott's ego is larger than his game, and I'm a lifelong diehard Cowboy fan! That last play call of a "QB draw" was the biggest bonehead play call in Dallas Cowboy franchise history. I have to agree with Steven A. on 99% of his take on the game and I strongly agree with his comment on Kellen Moore!

As a giants fan. I loved every second of this game! The fans that were crying were hilarious. The fans and the team deserve to be made fun of

I guess it's Ramon George's fault that the Cowboys had 14 penalties and Dak threw that interception that led to a 23-7 lead over his team? 🤣 Dak is using the ref as his scapegoat for his poor play and McCarthy's bad coaching.

I've been a Cowboy fan every since 1974 and I am so embarrassed by and disappointed in the Cowboys. Steven A. is completely right. The Cowboys are not as good as advertised at all. I'm sick of watching Dallas fail time and time again.

Seeing all those DallASS fans crying just absolutely made the victory so much better 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 How bout’em!!!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

They had every opportunity to win that game and blew it. 🤣

Cowboy's the most penalized team in the league - no way teams like that win Super Bowls Undisciplined play

It was a very entertaining game to watch two 5-time SB champions go at it. Felt like the early-80s and mid-90s again. I saw many Cowboys fans in the stands crying. But a huge Niner Empire group was also there to celebrate.

I woke up excited just to watch Stephen A blast the Cowboys

Stephen A does not disappoint!! He is Hilarious 😆

The Timing of Stephen A coming bck is impeccable😂😂

Stephen A was ready for this one 😂😂😂😂

Imagine Stephen A vs Shannon sharpe my ears would be bleeding how much they always be yelling 😂😭

Jimmy Johnson was the reason Dallas won those SB’s and form a dynasty. Jerry Jones said, after he fired Jimmy, “This team didn’t need Jimmy, it can run itself”. Then Jimmy said walking out the door, “Yea, show me how that works.” Jerry Jones has been competing against Jimmy Johnson’s words ever sense he fired him, trying to prove he was right and Jimmy was wrong. That will be the problem with Dallas until Jerry Jones either sell the team, retires from the team, or transitions.

We all know Dak isn't worth $75M and he will never live up to it. He's a middle of the road QB who beefed with Jerry Jones and now wants no blame for the disappointments. Blame Ramon George for them losing. Uh, huh.

Dallas Cowboys problem AIN'T on the FIELD,,, COWBOYS need a new OWNER!!!

Mike McCarthy sold, Dak sold, they collapsed on all fronts. I don’t even remember the cowboys running the ball fr. They were asking to lose. 😂😂😂

Cant believe I’m saying this. THANK YOU SAS!!!! I’ve been saying this about Kellen Moore since his first season as OC. He refuses to run the ball and gives up on it so quick despite that being the clear winning formula to win with Dak (29-0 in his career when they run more than they pass). I’m convinced that Kellen is just trying to prove himself as like the next Sean McVey with an air attack 🤦‍♂️

All I learned from this game is that Mike McCarthy will crumble under pressure which is what he did in green Bay all those years...

I don’t care what anyone says…this is when Stephen A is at his best…hatin on the Cowboys 😂

Dallas embarrassed them themselves with undisciplined play. #1 team in penalties this season. 14 penalties this game. Blown plays, like the delay of game after the completed trick punt play on 4th down. Undisciplined, sloppy play. Dallas has the talent, bad coaching, and sloppy play kept them from the comeback and potentially the win. It's coachable stuff, that's why it's disappointing, and honestly, why I still question if McCarthy is a good enough coach for this team. Better luck next season.

I'm seriously considering abandoning the Cowboys. This Jones family and the way they run the franchise is just a real problem for me. They don't know what they're doing when it comes to building a championship team. No company would allow a CEO to go 26 years without reaching a set goal and let them keep their job. They have done an amazing job with brand image and marketing of the team and capitalizing on past successes but the on-field product is just not good. They have not invested a first round pick in a QB since they drafted Troy Aikman. Dak Prescott is a project with great leadership skills but he's not a great QB. His accuracy is not good. Also, he seems to miss reads and take too long in the pocket. They shouldn't have drafted Elliot with such a high pick. Most teams get great production with running backs drafted in the mid-rounds. They have improved at drafting but they are still not a great drafting team. I don't see this changing so I have to decide if it's worth it to root for a team that I know will never win another Super Bowl.

We literally get this every year and it’s kind of tradition to watch First Take after the cowboys lose. Especially in the playoffs :)

I don't always see eye-to-eye with Stephen A. But this is a spot on analysis.

Its amazing dallas NEVER finishes games well, and ALWAYS lacks discipline as shown in penalty yards. How can a team stay so consistent for decades, with so much turnover? Is it in the water or the uniforms?

Nick Foles has more playoff wins in the last five seasons than Cowboys do in the last 25.

As a cowboy fan Steven is 100% right how do you a NFL professional Not know that the ref has to set the ball

Truth. Until yesterday I was a cowboy fan for the last 30 + years, and I am embarrassed at this franchise.

Dak makes a lot of money for a guy that can't count from 14 down to zero.

My late great Grandfather and Patriarch was born and raised in Austin, TX in 1911. Myself born in California in the 70’s was raised as a Cowboy fan. Everything Stephen said is right, except for the Tom Landry and Jimmie Johnson eras.

Any team that calls themselves "America's Team" deserves this kind of outcome!

The end of this game was almost (but not quite!) as bad as the Seahawks infamous blunder at the end of Super Bowl 49.

The Cowboys fans ran in the stadium like it was a Travis Scott concert Then they left it like one😂

Stephen A. is 100% correct on every level. 12 or 13 carries for ZeKe totally ridiculous ...... that last run by Dak was totally senseless, totally senseless.

“When the ref said “That’s the end of the game” I thought I was going to die of laughter

I've been waiting for this all day

I agree with EVERYTHING Stephen A said...as a cowboy fan I've said the SAME thing for YEARS!! As long as Jerry Jones is running the show, cowboys will CONTINUE to underachieve and " shoot themselves in the foot"( 14 penalties/ top 5 team MOST PENALIZED in last 15 years)... They're incredibly undisciplined and fail to win big games and by constantly beating themselves....

I am a Cowboy for life, got invited to tryout as a walk on in 96, been living and breathing Cowboys life ,all my Life, and will defend their honor anywhere anytime,but today I have to agree 100%with Steven A. DALLAS needs someone in their organization who is not scared to rightfully discipline these Young Superstars, into not having their way,this is a problem

I am a Forever Blue Cowboys and congratulations to them uggggg ( geez I hate to say it) 49ers. We played embarrassing. Penalties after penalties. Not blaming the Refs. We should no better. Unbelievable. Coaching got exposed and lack of preparation from players

Can't beat good teams in the Playoffs when you're dropping passes and getting penalties during critical moments of the game. Not to mention the QB Draw play 🤦🤦

Nice that Stephen’s back finally, shows still not anywhere near the level with the max combo tho

“And then finally, to just EMBARRASS themselves” 1:51 😂😂😂😂

It was a good game to watch. Cowgirls just couldn't get right 😆🤦🏾‍♂️

Stephen A is having his best first day on first take and his laying out points on Cowboys loss

5:39 When Playmaker says “what does that have to do with anything?” I lost it 😂

I am not a Dallas fan, but I wonder why nobody wants to talk about how Jimmy G nearly gave the game away. I also wonder if people finally saw Dak's true colors...

Dak choked literally ran out the clock 😂 40 yard line 14 seconds left it should never be a run lol

This is the best take on "The Cowboy Culture" that any NFL pundit has produced. Jerry Jones has produced a culture where players believe they are better just by walking on the field and that no matter what happens THE STAR WILL BAIL US OUT. This is why the Cowboys always fail in prime time against playoff caliber opponents and why they will never win an NFC ring until Jerry removes himself from the organization.

The penalties cost the game, every time Dallas had a chance they screwed it up. Both these teams aren't going anywhere.

2:38 Micheal Irvin look at the camera is hilarious

Daniel Jones wouldn't have taken a slide🤐 He would've gotten sacked for 5+ yards and somehow that would've given them more time😂

They finna talk about the cowboys for the whole month of February. 😭

2:38 - onward, no truer words were ever said about the Jerry Jones' Cowboys.

Glad to see stephen a back and ofc he comes thru!

Why haven't y'all talked about Dak giving himself up on the slide 2 yards back from where the ball was placed.

Irvin: I understand what you're trying to say. SAS: I know what I am saying, I speak fluent English. 🤣🤣🤣

Wow best show of the year thanks Steven a Smith

I argue w/myself on this at times: is the end-of-the-game play more important than a missed opp earlier in the game? My inclination is mostly no. The fact is that plays earlier in the game have an outsized influence on the importance of the final plays.

Been waiting for this all weekend🤣 HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS🤠

Play calling! Why would you run a run play at the end of the game with no timeouts!

Thank you Stephen A. Been saying it for awhile that K.Moore is not this boy wonder that everybody else is making him out to be. The two people that are mostly to blame for the loss are Prescott and Moore.

Kirk Cousins and Dak Prescott have the same number of post-season wins.

FIRE MOLLY!!!

That was one of the best takes I’ve heard Stephen A give he was PREACHING! Cowboys fans need to be taking heed! HUMBLE YOURSELVES!!!

I don't get SAS argument about the 3 plays 40 yards thing. If he watched the game, he should have seen SF not defending sideline during those plays and last play they pretty much had every defender near sideline. There was no way Cowboys were getting chance to get out of bounds. Why didnt Irvin bring that up? Smh

Speaking as a Dallas fan. Stephen is absolutely right!!! AND MIKE GOT IT RIGHT. OVER PAID STARS DIDNT SHOW UP. I Have officially broke tf up with the Cowboys. As a fan as a kid and knowing how great our franchise was. Its very disappointing. Thats it thats al

very Happy Stephan A is back!!! I couldn't watch this show without him.

As a lifelong Cowboy I must say that in a rare moment - Stephen A is correct. You have to EARN superstar status. THIS cowboy team has a marketing machine - as for players NO superstars.

Stephen the A totally on point! Cowboys and Cowboys fans in total denial!!!

Stephen A’s Hairline has gotten even worse🤣🤣

How many times did Dallas punt the ball and it was 4th and short or how bout not getting tony pollard involved till y’all was already down two possessions 😂😂😂 (Eagles Fan)

Eagles went as far in a rebuild year as the Cowboys did in a "this is our year" year.

SAS and the Play-Maker are GOLD!

I’m a cowboys fan and I’m starting to see where Stephen A is coming from when it comes to ego.

Micheal Irvin cant say nothing he is embarrassed by the Cowboys😂😂😂😂😂

I'm glad Stephen A. is back and healthy and tearing Michael Irvin and the Cowboys up in his segment.

the way that Stephen narrates his view is so entertaining

SAY IT WITH ME PPL WHAT CAN GO WRONG WILL GO WRONG, THIS IS WHO THEY ARE 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I can't stand Stephen A and his hate for the Dallas Cowboys. However he is 100% correct and is 100% correct every year about who they are and what they always do. This team is a running joke and I'm done being a fan of this team

Everyone was "Dallas is going to make the Superbowl easily" and what do they do what they've done for the last 27 years choke when it really matters that's what the Cowboys are now Fantastic "Regular" season team Playoff "choke artists"

Great show

The cowboys will never be the same after this loss 🥴
