who did the dallas cowboys lose to this year
2016 Dallas Cowboys season After losing their first game to the New York Giants, the Cowboys won 11 straight games. The streak ended with them losing again to the Giants in week 14, making this the first time since 2011 that the Giants would sweep the Cowboys. With division rivals Washington Redskins losing to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13, the Cowboys clinched a playoff berth after missing the playoffs the previous year.[1] Following the Giants' loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16, the Cowboys became NFC East champions for the second time in three years and clinched home field advantage throughout the playoffs for the first time since 2007. The 13â€“3 record is tied for the best record in team history, which was also set in 1992 and 2007. But despite having the NFC's top seed as well as home-field advantage, the Cowboys lost in the divisional round of the playoffs to the Green Bay Packers by a score of 34-31, ending their season. This was also QB Tony Romo's last season in the NFL, as he announced his retirement on April 4, 2017.
Philadelphia Eagles top defense in the NFL. The Eagles headed into their bye week with the best record in the NFL (8–1), and with Wentz leading the NFL MVP discussion with an NFL-leading 23 touchdowns to 5 interceptions. During their bye, the Eagles signed former Giants offensive tackle Will Beatty and former Saints linebacker Dannell Ellerbe to not only add depth but also players with Super Bowl experiences. Coming off of the bye week, the Philadelphia Eagles entered a Sunday night showdown with the defending NFC East champion Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles came out sluggish and trailed 9–7 at the half. The team exploded in the second half though, rattling off 30 unanswered points to soundly defeat their rival by a final score of 37–9. The Eagles were rolling on an nine-game winning streak after a huge blowout win over the Chicago Bears.[28] The Eagles traveled to Seattle in Week 13 in a huge Sunday Night showdown against Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks. The Eagles struggled throughout the whole game, blowing many scoring opportunities and allowing Wilson to throw 3 touchdowns. The Eagles lost 24–10, snapping their win streak. However, the Eagles bounced back in Week 14 win over the Los Angeles Rams in a tough 43–35 win. However, Carson Wentz left the game in the third quarter with a knee injury. It was later found out that Wentz tore his ACL ending his MVP caliber season. Backup Nick Foles would, once again take over as starting quarterback. In Foles's first start against the New York Giants, he would lead them back from a 20-7 deficit and score 4 touchdowns and win the game 34-29. Foles struggled in the last two games of the season against the Oakland Raiders and the Dallas Cowboys, and threw a touchdown and 2 interceptions in that span. Despite this, the Eagles finished 13-3 and secured the top seed in the NFC. The Eagles opened as the underdogs despite being the No. 1 seed in the NFC and this was the first time in history that a No. 1 seed has opened up the postseason as an underdog. Despite this Foles would lead the Eagles past the Atlanta Falcons in the Divisional Round 15-10. In the next game Foles and the Eagles annihilated the Minnesota Vikings 38-7 in the NFC Championship nicknamed the Minneapolis Massacre, mocking the Minneapolis Miracle from their previous playoff victory. Foles had his best game since week 15 and threw for 352 passing yards and 3 touchdowns including an impressive flea flicker touchdown pass. This win marked the franchise's third Super Bowl appearance and a berth in Super Bowl LII for a 2005 rematch against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.
