Giants' Jacobs: Cowboys fans are even worse than Eagles fans

Giants running back Brandon Jacobs might not be an All-Pro on the field this season, but he continues to be a superstar for reporters looking for a good quote.

With the NFC East title at stake in Sunday night's game at MetLife Stadium, Jacobs bypassed taking a shot at the Cowboys ... at least for now. Instead, he chose to throw some unprovoked daggers at Dallas' fan base.

“You know what it is? You’ve got a lot of people on other teams hating the Cowboys. It’s their fans,” Jacobs said Thursday, according to the New York Daily News. “Some of their fans are loud, obnoxious and just bad.

“Just everywhere you go you’ve got them Dallas fans, running their mouth about Dallas," Jacobs went on. "They keep going. It’s not really the team and the star and all that. They’re just like any other team in the National Football League if you ask me. But their fans are the ones that have me really just feeling the way I feel.”

Jacobs said Dallas fans out-obnoxious even the infamous Iggles supporters in Philadelphia.

“Yeah, they are (worse),” Jacobs said. “I’m not talking about being actually at the game and doing the type of stuff they do in Philly. I’m just talking about in everyday life. Cowboys fans get on my nerves.”

With his future in New York far from secure, this could be Jacobs' last taste of the Giants-Cowboys rivalry. Did you really think he'd go out quietly?
