The Cowboys & Giants Have Never Met in the Playoffs

Original posted by Hostile from a sports forum:

There are 15 other teams in the NFC with the Cowboys. The Cowboys have faced 13 of the other 15 teams in the post season. The matchup next week with the Giants reduces that number to 1 team that they have never met. As amazing as it sounds the Cowboys and the Giants, two very successful franchises, have been in the league 48 years together and have been division foes in 45 of those years, but have never met each other in the post season.

The other team they haven't faced in the post season, just doesn't have much post season history to even try. The New Orleans Saints have never met the Cowboys either.

Here's how the Cowboys have fared against the other 15 teams in the NFC.

Cardinals...0-1
Falcons...2-0
Panthers...0-2
Bears...2-0
Lions...1-1
Packers...4-2
Vikings...4-2
Saints...0-0
Giants...0-0
Eagles...2-1
Rams...4-4
49ers...5-2
Seahawks...0-1
Buccaneers...2-0
Redskins...0-2
