Whats your favorite Cowboy's team?

The 90's team was a four year run. Landry's teams had a winning record for 20 consecutive seasons, an NFL record that was one season short of being matched by the Patriots.

The 90's team was a tragedy. It demonstrated to the world that Jerry Jones was so pathetic a GM that he was capable of destroying one of the strongest teams in NFL history in only three years.

Landry went to an NFL or NFC championship game with five different quarterbacks. Both Belicek and Jerry Jones went there with one quarterback and when he left, their teams fell apart.
 
1992, everyone said they were a year. They had a bid NFC East offense and a fast defense with a defensive line that rotated up to 8 or 9 players.

Youngest team in NFL and was fun watching them take down the power houses....nobody expected them to win SB much less het there......it was a fun season!!
 
off topic, and maybe deserving of a thread of its own...I wonder why we never hired Norv Turner a few tears back, to be the HC? I mean, in his day, he was a coveted proven QB guru and offensive mind. I mean he was never gonna succeed in Washington. Not his fault. I always thought he would be a great fit here as the HC. Vastly underrated. Even Aikman thinks the same thing.
 
I don't go by team. I go by era's
Early 90s
You could tell something special was building.
 
I liked the '77-'78 teams a lot.

Way before Micah Parsons was born, we had another freak of nature called "Hollywood" Henderson. 1977 was a pretty good draft year, with a couple of kids named Tony Dorsett and Tony Hill coming in.

The 1977 team went 12-2, setting a then-franchise record for regular season wins. Cherry on top came in the form of another three playoff wins, including a dominating performance against the "Orange Crush" in Super Bowl XII (the first SB to be played in a domed stadium). A ferocious, punishing defense with no weaknesses.

Cowboys fans were spoiled in the 1970s, seeing their team play in five Super Bowls in that single decade.

The '92 squad (13-3) was the most dominant Cowboys team, ever, IMHO. Defense, especially. Youngest team in the NFL, one we'd watched adjust and improve every season from the thorough, slightly-disorienting retool & franchise rebuild that had commenced with a 1-15 campaign in 1989.

The 1993 team probably would have gone 15-1 if Emmitt Smith hadn't held out of the first two games in a contract dispute, and if Leon Lett was aware of the rules applying to a missed field goal. Yet, another Super Bowl win pretty much rendered all that moot.
