The Rankings Are In!
Check out the preseason rankings for The FWAA–NFF #Super16Poll!
Notes:
footballfoundation.org/news/…
11 franchises have won multiple Super Bowls since the Cowboys’ last championship in 1995.
-Patriots
-Steelers
-Ravens
-Broncos
-Chiefs
-Eagles
-Giants
-Packers
-Buccaneers
-Rams
-Seahawks
Seahawks are the first team to advance to the Super Bowl facing only division opponents in the conference playoffs.
Of the first 59 Super Bowls, 41 were either played in California or Florida, or featured the New England Patriots. Yet despite that, New England has never appeared in a Super Bowl held in either of those states. This year’s Super Bowl will be in California.
If the Rams and Patriots meet in the Super Bowl, they will tie the Cowboys vs. Steelers as the most common SB matchup (three times).
If Seattle defeats the Rams in the NFC Championship, the Seahawks will be the first team to advance to the Super Bowl facing only division opponents in the conference playoffs (San Francisco and Los Angeles).
This was the best game ever played at Texas Stadium.

COWBOYS-REDSKINS NFC EAST CROWN SHOWDOWN
In 1979's 'Game of the Year', Roger Staubach performs his final miracle, directing two comebacks of 17 and 13 points, respectively, as the #Cowboys edge the #Redskins, 35-34.
Staubach's 8-yard touchdown pass to Tony Hill with :39 left clinches the NFC East title for the #DallasCowboys and eliminates #HTTR from playoff contention.
