In this story:
The Arizona Cardinals secured the first win of the Jonathan Gannon era against the previously undefeated Dallas Cowboys.
Yeah, we're just as shocked as you are.
As one would imagine, Twitter has been having an absolute field day with the upset and the memes and the trolling are leaving us in stitches.
Here are a few of the best ones so far, but if you want the full experience then you need to see it all for yourself.

James Conner and the Cardinals appear to have kept the receipts from all the analysts picks against the birds. A consensus pick of the Cowboys did not age well.

With the way the Cards have played in the first half of games this year, it feels like if they could find a way to play a full 60 minutes that they could easily be 3-0 right now. We aren't alone in the feeling, as this funny power ranking shows how high they are on the first half Cardinals.

This Kevin James meme has been viral the last few days and it was only right that the Cardinals got to use it to celebrate the win.

You gotta admit, this loss for the Cowboys is absolutely hilarious and people around the country who aren't even Cardinals fans were praying for Dallas's downfall.

And as amazing as it is to see Cowboys fans cry, it's even better to see Skip Bayless in shambles!

But perhaps the best thing to come out of this game was the Gatorade bath Gannon got from his team.
