"The Dallas Cowboys lost to the New York Giants on Sunday and this is a sentence that has not been said out loud in quite some time. Dallas entered the game riding a nine-game winning streak against the Giants which was the longest active streak of such kind in the NFL. The last time that Dallas had won nine straight games against an opponent prior to this was against the Carolina Panthers from 1998-2012."
"Many Cowboys fans are aware of how there was a different streak at play that required some goalpost moving. While Dallas held a nine-game streak against the Giants as a team, quarterback Dak Prescott had won 14 straight games against the Giants in games where he was the starting quarterback. He had missed games if that was not clear which is why there was a disparity."
The Dallas nine-game team streak against the New York Giants ended with Sunday’s loss. Dallas entered the game riding the longest active streak of that kind in the NFL, with a previous comparable run versus Carolina from 1998–2012. Quarterback Dak Prescott had a separate 14-game personal streak in starts versus the Giants because he missed some matchups. Prescott started Sunday and is credited with the loss, marking his first defeat to the Giants since his rookie season when Dallas was swept. A 2018 Dallas win over New York came in a meaningless regular-season finale, creating some statistical ambiguity.
