Who do you view as our Greatest Rival?

[Monster Heel]

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.

haha not if you ask Skins fans. They think splitting and winning at Texas Stadium means they own us now.

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.

This is true. I think it has to do moreso with the fact that our best teams have come in different eras. When we dominated the NFC in the 70s, they were irrelevant the entire decade. When they came alive in the mid 80s to 1990, we had fallen on hard times. When we dominated the 90s, they were back to irrelevance against except for that one '93 season. These past couple of years is the first time we've both had championship aspirations at the same time. So it's no surprise we barely played our 1st playoff game against eachother last year.

Eagles right now. They have way outperformed us for a decade and are the biggest thorn in our side.

Overall in franchise history it's the Skins. The Steelers and Packers are also hated enemies. I've not forgotten the 60s and will take it to my grave. Most remember the Steelers owning us in the SB.

it will always be the skins because we hate them and they hate us and that will never change

I know, its hilarious.

Philly as far as I'm concerned. It has been a heated rivalry since Buddy Ryan was there and it has not changed. As for the Commanders it has not been much of a rivalry but then I think what makes for a heated rivalry is the people involved when George Allen was the HC in DC he had a deep hatred for the Cowboys and his players took on that attitude which added fuel to the fire.

I don't think we have ever "owned" y'all. I know for a fact you guys owned us for a couple years. That just fuels the fire. Now I think we have split the last couple years. Overall, this has been a sad decade for my Skins.

I so hope we can be your home opener opponent, but I expect it will be the Giants.

I think most Cowboy fans that's 25 or 26 and under that does not live close to Steeler territory really has no opinion on the Steelers. I know I don't. I didn't want them to win the superbowl. But I have no love nor hate for them. Now the 49ers......

 

[reddyuta]

Commanders.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

Skinz.

Personally, I define greatest rival by the team our current players feel the most animosity towards. To me, that would have to be the Giants.

Granted, we have history with the Steelers, but the same could be said of the Packers, Commanders, Cardinals, Eagles, Texans, etc. The fact of the matter is, if there is any gameday that our current Cowboys look forward to to truly know there worth in this NFL, I'd say it would have to be the Giants overall. But that is just my take...

 

[AmishCowboy]

The Commanders of Course, although I don't hate hate them like the Eagles.

 

[Texan_Eph89]

Commanders, but we've had some good rivalries with Pittsburgh.
