In a video captured by Mike Leslie of WFAA, pre-game, quarterback Dak Prescott and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones were seen talking to Rams owner Stan Kroenke on the field. And cameras picked up a statement from Dak that might have Cowboys fans either happy the quarterback said it … or might have Cowboys fans shaking their heads.

Dallas and Los Angeles twice met in the NFC title game, with the Cowboys winning both games (in 1975 and in 1978). In 1979, the Rams extracted a measure of revenge by upsetting the Cowboys in the divisional round of the playoffs. That was ultimately the final game for future Hall of Fame quarterback Roger Staubach.
