News: PFT: Kyle Shanahan says today's players don't know about the 49ers-Cowboys rivalry

[RaZon]

I did not know that! Very interesting. Thanks.

When we first see Scarlett she is on a porch surrounded by young guys falling over her, Reeves was one of them.

 

[Hagman]

Heck most of the posters on this board are to young to remember that we beat the 49ers in the NFC Championship Games in 1970 and 1971.

The last four times the Cowboys and 49ers met in the playoffs the winner of the game went on to win the Super Bowl.

Current players are treated like 5 time champions. They don’t care about rivalries.

I still have the VHS tape recordings of those great games. Man those were the days! Went to candlestick park for one of them, we were on top of the world then!

some might think VHS is an app

they are busy with social media they have no time for that

 

[Creeper]

Not surprising. If you were born the year of The Catch, you are 40 years old now. Things change. Not surprising. There are new rivalries now.

 

[blueblood70]

they will once the network re-airs every one of them since the matchup was released sunday night lol

not that it matters but fans remember if you were part of the following both in the 90s you remember every matchup, my first ever cowboy game i watched when we moved to TX was the 1981 catch game.

I thought it was an STD…..

 

[CouchCoach]

Today's players do not know about any of the storied rivalries of the past. They're more concerned with keeping their FA options open.

And it’s not like Kyle Shanahan is old either.. man, we old…

How old is the average member here? I feel like mostly everyone is in their 40’s or higher based on the way they talk.

I think that’s pretty accurate gage of the age in my opinion.

There’s guys that talk about the 80s or 70s Cowboys too, so there’s quite a range of ages here. That’s like ancient history to me lol.

That’s a lot of glorious tradition of winning, starting from the 70s, so you can imagine the nostalgia. As far as the 80s, it was like day and night. While in the 90s, it was like day and night once again. Ever since the 2000s, it’s been like night the whole time almost.
