Emmitt Smith expressed frustration with the Dallas-Philadelphia rivalry, citing the Eagles' recent success with three Super Bowl appearances and two wins while the Cowboys have struggled in the postseason. Smith believes the Cowboys should be contending for championships more consistently and criticizes the management for delays in rewarding key players with contracts.
The Eagles currently appear better positioned for a Super Bowl run compared to the Cowboys and have capitalized on opportunities to strengthen their roster. Smith laments the Cowboys' missed opportunities in acquiring top talent like Saquon Barkley and Derrick Henry, which could have bolstered their chances for success. Despite having talent on the team, the Cowboys have faced challenges in translating it into playoff success, leading to a prolonged absence from the NFC Championship.
