What NFL teams would you say Dallas is in their head or has their number and what teams would you say has the Cowboys number?

None, .. and none

This....

There was a time that dallas was in the heads of many teams. Not really any more.
And I can't really think of any current teams that are in the heads of Dallas.

none and none

Does GB have any?

Jerry Jones owns the Cowboys. That's the only owning going on of any sort with the Cowboys these days.

No.
Dallas put a tail whupping on them at their place in front a national TV audience last year. First defending champ to lose the home opener, i think.

And then the second game, Dez' fingertip (fingernail?) was out of bounds on the would be game-winning play in Dallas. They the replayo of highlights from that game on the NFLNW two night ago. When Dallas was making the 4th quart comeback--after a dreadful start--they showed the looks on the Giants faces. They did not look remotely confident.

I think Dallas LOVES playing NY. It does not mean they beat them as much as they'd like, but I think they really love the rivalry.

Meh if we had won the second game as well, then I would have agreed with you.

One thing I'll say is that a lot of their players have changed since a few years ago so it might not be as evident anymore.

At the ver least you have to admit they have a mental edge over us in Jerry's World.

Don't think we've ever beaten the Ravens since becoming the Ravens so that would be the closest. The Giants at home in the new stadium is another one we always find a way to lose.

As far as who's heads we're inn? I'd say everyone, teams always get up to play the Cowboys even when we suck. We haven't been an intimidating team since the 90s so if you means who's scared of us then the answer is probably no one

We used to play well against the Saints. And we used to lose the biggest games to the Giants. I'd say the latter is still probably the case. The Saints got us this year, in a game we really could have used.

Just because a team loses to another team does not mean they are in their heads, so to speak.

As for the Saints, didn't Dallas stop their win streak in New Orleans the year they won the SB?

Philly when they had McNabb. Now, I don't really think anybody in the East is in anybody elses head.

I have to go with the 1st answer. Dallas is so very average that I don't think they get in anyone's heads and no one really gets in theirs.

In the 90's Dallas was in Green Bays head in a big way :)

The NFC East is so even it's hard for that too happen.

Considering his username, I'll take the bait. The Packers have lost 9 straight on the road against us, have also lost 4 straight playoff games on the road against us. We also beat GB and Brett Favre in November 1999 with a Jason Garrett led attack.

I would say that's being in somebody's head and being a superior team at home during that stretch.

Also, Cowboy Chris is in Ed Werders head.

The Saints' game was meaningless in the end wasn't it?

Yes, we did. And it was beautiful.

FYI...every loss in the regular season is meaningless if you don't make the playoffs. Had the Cowboys won that game, perhaps the last game against the Skins that kept the Cowboys out of the playoffs would not be harped on over and over and over again by the crybabies.

I agree the whining about a division road loss when your team is undermanned gets old.

But the Saints games--win or loss--did change the importance of the Washinton game.
