Washington’s last home date in this rivalry doubled as a franchise first. The Commanders hosted their first Christmas Day game in 2025 and lost 30-23, completing a Dallas sweep that began with a 44-22 result in Arlington that October. Washington is 0-1 despite a fourth quarter that nearly rescued it. Jayden Daniels was 6-of-16 for 43 yards through two quarters in Philadelphia, then drove the Commanders to back-to-back touchdowns before a two-point try for the tie was stopped with 1:01 left.

Dallas holds the all-time edge in the series, but Washington owns the bigger postseason moments. The teams have met twice in the playoffs, both times with a Super Bowl berth on the line, and Washington won both NFC Championship Games: 26-3 on Dec. 31, 1972, and 31-17 on Jan. 22, 1983. The most lopsided result in the rivalry came at AT&T Stadium in 2021, when the Cowboys won 56-14.
