When the Cowboys Are Good, They're Bad in the Playoffs

This is the fourth season in franchise history that the Cowboys started out with a 9-1 record – once in the 70’s, once in the 80’s, and most recently in 2007. The previous three times Dallas got off to a hot start, they were unable to win a single postseason contest.

If you’re a Packers fan, it’s a hopeful feather in your cap. Before I go – one more stat that you can use Sunday afternoon with your friends and family. Since Dallas’ offensive line assembled in 2013, the Packers and Cowboys have matched up four times. In those four contests, the Cowboys have averaged a staggering 6.4 yards per carry. However, Green Bay is 3-1 in those contests.
