It will always be the 'skins for me.

These are the top 5 teams I dislike the most:
1. 'skins
2. Eagles
3. Giants
4. Steelers
5. 49'ers

The Giants are our today's biggest rival.
The Niners are out biggest playoff rival. I actually personally hate them more than any team but only slightly over the Skins.

The funny thing about the Giants is that I never had any opinion of them until around a few years ago. I never hated them as much.

Same here, as far as not hating the Giants until 2 years ago...oh, and Wale is great.

Greatest rival amongst fans...Commanders. We hate them with a passion, there's history and tradition there.

Greatest rival amongst players... Eagles. I think our players really hate everything eagles.

I remember last year Witten Crayton and someone else all said the team the players hate the most is the Giants. They really do hate that team. All their players talk trash, play dirty at times, and are a bunch of jerks.

My biggest rival changes on who is playing the best, and who seems to bring out competition the most. Right now it is Giants, Eagles, Commanders, and before this year maybe even Seattle/Carolina.

Boys-Skins is still the top rivalry in football and by far the most storied since 1960.

Personally when it comes to the NFC East I hate em all but it's up and down depending on who's in our way.

Don't like the Steelers due to the constant *** kissing by the media and their holier than Jesus attitude.

As a kid I DESPISED the Niners but now I've come to respect them and appreciate the fact that our rivalry in the early 90's was the best time to be an NFL fan.

Just curious which team you all view as our Greatest Rival, and why. Do you feel respect for them? Or pure hatred?

Personally for me it's the Steelers. I'd imagine many people would have the same answer. Lots of history there. We've been in 3 Super Bowls with them, and it's 2-1 in their favor. They also now officially have the most Super Bowl wins of any team. They are 6-1 in Super Bowls vs our 5-3. They are really the only team I acknowledge as a *True* all time Rival.

As far as how I feel about them? I respect them greatly. They are imo one of the most all-time consistent teams in terms of attitude and playstyle. As much as I like to see them lose, I can't help but feel they always have a shot with their generally solid D and punch you in the nose offense.

I hope to see another Cowboys/Steelers Super Bowl one day. Preferably after Dallas wins its' 6th, and it be for the Tie Breaker ^_^

As far as my most Hated? 49ers are high on that list. It's sad as they are nothing now, but the fact that they blocked us from 4 in a row has always stuck with me. Ofcourse I hate everyone in the NFC East, specially the Eagles, but 49ers will probably always hold a "special" place in my heart.


Anyhow, just curious how other fans feel.

Actually I'd count the Steelers vs Cowboys as 1-1-1. The zebras were defintiely responsible for one of the Pitt "wins", but then this is nothing new in NFL policy.

I also like to point out that Dallas victory was the most dominant. Dallas was never behind in the game, won by double digits (more than both of Pitts win differentials combined), and it took the refs screwjobbing us to even keep the score within 10 points.

yes. that is it.
i consider all 3 to be rivals. I can't say why, but the Skins don't make me mad like the other two teams do... maybe I'm just too young to remember the good ole days (I'm 25). But the Skins do bring an extra intensity every time we play them... no matter how good we are or how bad they are, it is ALWAYS tough to win those games. But the Eaglets and the Gi-Ants bring out the anger in me.

Commanders hands down. We could go 2-14 all year as long as those 2 came against the Commanders
or 1-15 :( I will forever hate that we lost that game to you.

Also I remember (and I don't know how it played in Dallas, I was only 13-14) when Riggo came off the plane in Camo. Awesome.

From my point of view the Cowboys would be the Skins #1 rival.

The Giants never made it much to me, one of my best friends growing up was a Giants fan, and we messed with each other all the time in the 80's. Now my son somehow became a Giants fan and I am learning to hate them (NOT my son)

I am glad the Giants won the superbowl that they won than the patriots go undefeated that year.

I can agree with this.

In the early 90's, it was the 49'ers of course....

I really never met a Giant fan until I moved to DC in 2005 and even than, I have met more Cowboy, Steeler, Raider, and Ravens fans in the area compared to Giant fans. This was all before January 2008. They started coming out from everywhere after that month and they really showed how annoying they really are. With that plus the way their players act, they shot up my list.

Yep. The Bounty Bowl and Snowball Game are still fresh in my mind. Polarizing coaches like George Allen and Buddy Ryan do a rivalry good.

The entire NFC East would be my choice... I hold equal hate for all those teams honestly. We've owned Washington for so long it's hard to call it a rivalry.
