Reply to comment by Mallee78 in Cowboys-49ers rivalry set for record-tying 9th playoff game by TexOliver93

I dunno. Rivalries are kinda dead between players. Social media, mega sports agencies, and the fact they've almost all played on teams or offseason workouts together has killed it. Some players have specific beef but it's not usually because of the color of their jerseys.

Not entirely, often divisional rivals still don't get along very well

Players in the digital age era are always commiserating after games now win or lose. Fans take rivalries much more serious than players.
