The Dallas Cowboys played an absolutely miserable first half against the Washington Football Team on Sunday, and they capped it off in perfectly awful fashion in the waning moments.

Kyle Allen and Antonio Gibson had their way for Washington.

The Cowboys' pathetic performance is making them ripe for roasting:
