Intense match-up twice a season
The NFL's Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys rivalry is
perhaps the most intense one in the league. These two NFC teams do
not like one another. Just ask Washington spokesman Carl Swanson:
"Hating the Cowboys is so much a part of the fabric of being a
Redskins fan;" enough said. Success in these cities is measured by
whether or not you beat, no, kill the opponent twice a year...which
is why this Sports Rivalry ranks #4 on the list. Submit
your take on why this rivalry tops the list of All NFL
rivalries. [take]

Did you know? George Preston Marshall acquired
an NFL franchise in 1932 and named it the Boston Braves
after the city’s Major League Baseball team. However, after
a financially devastating and poorly attended season in
1932, Marshall abandoned the Braves name in favor of the
Redskins. The Redskins name was retained when the team was
moved to Washington in 1937
