It's been nearly three decades since the Cowboys last made the NFC championship game. They now have the longest title game drought in the conference.
The Cowboys also have three former players in the AFC Championship, all playing for the Buffalo Bills. Those players are Amari Cooper, Connor McGovern, and Jordan Phillips. The Cowboys themselves have not made it to the NFC Championship since 1995, marking the longest drought in the NFC.

The Cowboys haven't reached the conference title game since the 1995 season. Every other NFC team has reached the title game since 1996.
