The three weeks since the Dallas Cowboys lost to the Rams in the divisional round have been uniquely frustrating to Cowboy fans. It seems this team does just enough to win and then just enough to lose. Meanwhile in New England, there’s a team that’s a model of consistency.
In the past 20 seasons, the Patriots have made the playoffs 17 times, won 24 playoff games, and have now won six Super Bowls. Whereas the Dallas Cowboys made the playoff nine times, winning only three games in that same span. In six of those seasons, the Cowboys were one and done, bounced out after the first game.
