In recent years, the New York Giants have endured terrible seasons. Since defeating Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl in 2012, the Big Apple team has only made the playoffs twice. Their record within the NFC East division has been simply disastrous.
One of the teams the Giants have struggled against the most in recent times is the Dallas Cowboys-especially against Dak Prescott. Since Prescott became the Cowboys’ quarterback in 2017, he has never lost a game against New York, holding a perfect record of 13 wins and 0 losses.
The Giants are in full rebuild mode. While they are currently the weakest team in the division on paper, they have now signed Russell Wilson as their quarterback. Wilson boasts an impressive record of 17 wins and just 6 losses within the NFC East-the division he now joins. Additionally, he has an outstanding track record against the Dallas Cowboys.
Russell Wilson’s record against the Dallas Cowboys
The New York Giants quarterback has a career record of 5 wins and just 1 loss against the Cowboys, with that lone defeat occurring nearly a decade ago. Wilson has been lethal against Dallas, throwing 11 touchdown passes, just 2 interceptions, and accumulating 1,087 passing yards.
All of Wilson’s victories over the Cowboys came while he was playing for the Seattle Seahawks. His last game against Dallas was in 2020, and he was spectacular, throwing 5 touchdown passes. With these impressive stats, the Giants hope Wilson can change the course of their recent struggles in the division.
The Commanders have been Wilson’s toughest NFC East opponent
The Washington Commanders have been the most competitive NFC East team against Wilson, holding a 3-3 record against him. Meanwhile, his record against the Philadelphia Eagles mirrors that against the Cowboys5 wins and 1 loss. Interestingly, that lone defeat against the Eagles came just last year when Wilson was with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
