Much has been written and spoken about the Dallas Cowboys failure to reach the NFC Championship game since the 1995 season.

In short, the divisional round has been a nightmare for Cowboys’ coaches, players and fans since the mid-90’s. Will 2018 be the year the team finally awakens?
Not often mentioned when talking about the team’s divisional round woes is the fact the team dominated that round of the playoffs from 1992 through 1994.
