No one ... there were 31 NFL teams when the Houston Texans joined in 2002.

The 31st team, the Cleveland Browns, joined in 1999 and were placed in the AFC making 16 teams in the AFC and 15 in the NFC. When the Texans joined in 2002, they were placed in the AFC and the Seatte Seahawks moved to the NFC to even the conferences out at 16 teams each.

The Texans were the only team to join that year. From the time the Cleveland Browns rejoined the league in 1999, the NFL had 31 teams until the Texans joined.

Have the Houston Texans ever beat the Dallas Cowboys in regular season play?

If you don't count preseason games, the Texans and the Cowboys play each other every four years, when the NFL schedule rotation calls for the teams of the AFC South to play the teams of the NFC East. The last time the intrastate rivals played was on October 5, 2014, when the Cowboys defeated the Texans 20-17 in overtime at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The two teams will not play again in the regular season until 2018. The Texas teams have faced each other in the preseason seven times since Houston joined the league in 2002.
