I grew up a huge 49ers fan and was at the 92' NFC championship game , which even though we lost was an awesome game to witness . I have to give it to the 92 cowboys , they beat the last 3 Super Bowl champions that year , it was definitely a passing of the torch moment and year for Big D .
Damn…. That was at Candlestick Park wasnt it?? I remember I went to the Championship Game in 93 at the old Texas Stadium where they beat’em for the second time. Then they took it in 94. That rivalry was REAL bro!! Talkin REAL Football!! Not this watered down crap we see today. Oh the Nostalgia!!
If there was a place to prove the Boys were going to be the champs, it was Candlestick in the 90’s. Had the cowboys not won, San Francisco woulda definitely won those Super Bowls.
Those along w the 70s Steelers were the best teams over periods of time there ever was and moreso when it was a real football league...3 best dynasties IMO
Irvin said it best: if Johnson hadn’t departed after the 93 season- they would’ve won at least 5 Super Bowls. That said, I miss that era of football. And sports in general. Not just because I’m a cowboys fan, but because it was great watching every team and every player fight for every yard, play through the pain, and especially keep bringing it through every tackle and every whistle.
He wasn’t wrong. Jones’s ego wouldn’t let him have it. And I’m certain it’s the reason the boys are the laughing stock of the league these days and it sucks.
@@liberalmadness7248 jimmy would’ve been there the whole off-season prior to the 94 season. He would’ve had them ready. Norton would’ve stayed along with Stepnoski and other key free agents. Jimmy would’ve found a way. Jimmy wouldn’t have been denied had he stayed as coach. Deion would’ve been there a year earlier in Dallas. 5 in a row? Probably not but 4 in a row for sure. Jerry Jones messed everything up royally cause of his ego
I was thinking the other day: I can't remember the last time I saw one of our linebackers meet a running back in the hole and stuff him. (Not since Ken Norton or Godfrey Myles.) We need more of that.
If Troy played today. Smh all rules that protect QB. Look at all those Late hits he took to deliver strikes, hang in knowing your about to get drilled. Smh Troy under rated. How many passes were on the money on High pressure situations.
Not with these owners team worth 6 billion Jerry’s world sold out next 50 years all the Jones care about us money. Stop supporting a losing organization
The thing that made Jimmy great was not only did he draft the right players, he knew what buttons to push to motivate players, he knew how to discipline them when needed to. He also gave them confidence in their abilities.
Not a Cowboy fan but watching this video not only reminded me of how great the Cowboys and 9ers were through these years. The NFC title game was basically the Super Bowl for 4 years
I had a dagger stuck in my heart since the 82’ NFC championship, this was finally that moment, when all those years thinking bout that game , were gone, payback!
Ken Norton was already having symptoms of memory failure due to concussions. In the 1992 season,the Bills beat the 49er's in the first ever no punt game. Look it up on UA-cam, it's a great game. Kenny didn't even know that and here he is saying "We beat the great 49ers. Who are the Buffalo Bills?" when he doesn't even realize the Bills beat the 49ers too!
@@MaymeBlue-tz8qwwell when you just have him in defense getting pressure I don’t blame him. Dallas didn’t add another pass rusher or a amazing linebacker to compliment Micah
No one has forgotten the Dallas Cowboys line… In fact people have been using that line to discredit Michael Irvin Emmitt Smith and Troy Aikman for the entirety of their career… Funny how that offensive line became mediocre when any running back other than Emmitt Smith ran behind it… Remember when Emmett Smith sat out two games and because of that amazing offensive line the Cowboys ran for less than 100 yards in two games? Pepperidge Farms remembers…and everyone remembers Dallas’ line.
Yeah Emmit was special..seriously. People forget how special he was. A true 3 down, workhorse back that played through fatigue and injury and often times hoisted the whole team on his back...I will forever remember him changing our organization and bringing us to glory💙
@@amdtexas9383 You ain't lying. I actually just watched the 77 Super Bowl last night on UA-cam. Our team could fly man, we had speed, strength, talent everywhere.
They weren't even the best team that those Bills teams had faced in their Super Bowl years. The Bills have said, respect for Dallas but,the best team they faced in the Super Bowl was the 1991 Washington Redskins.

Me too. I was 5. I bled silver and blue, including through that 1-15 season....watched every game. I remember that exact spring morning, reading the paper at breakfast, reading that tiny little paragraph in the lower right hand corner of the sports section that said the Boys' had just signed Charles Haley......my jaw almost hit the table. I knew great things were about to happen. Those Super Bowl years, and in particular '92, were some of my all time fondest sports memories. This film brings it all back.
My dad had orders to Guam, so we were on our way across Country to visit relatives before we shipped out of San Francisco. Me, my brother, my dad and my uncle went to a Cowboys game at the Cotton Bowl in 1965 (I was 7). It was my first pro game and I was instantly hooked on the helmet with the Star. It turned out to be the only game I ever saw with my dad as he was killed in a car wreck when I was 10 (while in Guam, he flew B-52 missions over ‘Nam. Before that he had flown combat missions thru WWII and Korea).
Those were great years. I was 20 years old. In the military. Living it up. And my Cowboys, were kicking everyone's ass . I saw the Superbowl live on a 10 " Sony watchman t.v in the back of a humvee in the deserts of California.
I remembered being 19 in my first year in college in '92 and I'm from Dallas. To see this amazing run that the Cowboys made was very incredible! I just wished I could have been there for that parade. I should have skipped my classes. Lol!
@@rodneymathews6775 same. I missed all the celebrations. As. I was in the Marine Corp the whole time. But. Did have those 4 years of "bragging rights". Being around dudes from diffrent states. They could not put up any argument that Dallas was the best team. I remember specifically during games I felt comfortable taking a break when the offense was on the field and going to get something to eat or use the restroom. Because I knew that the Dallas Cowboys would score almost every time on every Drive. That was a great feeling
@@theunknown4570 It was really hard to watch Jimmy leave the team after the back to back win. I just wished that he and Jerry could have worked things out. If you haven't read the book Boys Will Be Boys by Jeff Pearlman, you should definitely pick it up! Very good book about the 90s Cowboys.
It's funny to hear "Jerry Jones and changing the culture" in one sentence. Seems like our 2021 Cowboys are all good as long as the checks still hit on Tuesday!!
Yep. We've gone in reverse since then and we haven't done anything since. And us true fans have been suffering ever since. But it was a good run while it lasted. Plus we're getting a little karma for that Walker trade.
I have a real understanding of the Cowboys. I was listening to them on the radio as a kid loosing to Greenbay. I watched them thru good and bad. The Cowboys were my favorite Teem. Even when my whole family turned to Houston, I am still a Cowboy fan at 67.
I’m back after the depressing loss to the 49ers in the Divisional Round this year. When will it end? We shall see. I have faith because we are still AMERICA’S TEAM 🇺🇸.
I don't think people give Aikman credit where it's due. He only threw for 20 or more tds once in his career but it goes beyond numbers with him, it's the way he played in big games. And if he had to throw 30 to 35 times per game in a different offense he would've been more than capable of doing so. I'm no cowboys fan by any stretch, but in my opinion Aikman is a top 5 passer to ever play if your going strictly based on throwing mechanics and passing of the football
So true! The bigger the game, the better he played. Poor coaching, Free agency and the salary cap robbed him of team gel. As well as age, but in his prime, there was no one better. Period!
I’ve said this for years, hire Michael Irvin as head coach, #1 He loves the Cowboys, #2 He knows football #3 Ultimate motivator for his #1 team he loves?
I'm sad I never got to witness these days. I wass born 2 months after the Cowboys won their last Super Bowl. I think these days are long gone. I mean don't get me wrong, I think some day the Cowboys will win a Superbowl someday, but to have a team that was so dominant as this team. I would be absolutely shocked if the Cowboys ever got this good again.
Man I felt this comment 🤦🏽♂️😞. I was born in 90 and the first SB I remember was Bret Farve winning it the 96-97 season SmH. I too missed the glory days bro
Born in 86. I got to see every one, and did not grasp how great they really were until 10 years later when the teams were bad again. Different time of football too
I feel VERY fortunate to have seen the start of the Cowboys, then the SBs in the ‘70s (with my fav of ‘77) and then the’90s. I’m hoping for another Chip, hopefully in the next 2 seasons, though if the OL and Dak play well along with the D we have, it could be this year!
88 was our heartbeat when he went down in Philly my mom cried I mean cried and I thought man that's the heart of our team layin there and the end of their reign of the 90s it felt terrible
Love this 92 team up until then I’ve been waiting 16 season to witness my boys win our 3rd super bowl then we did a back to back … could of been 4 in a row unprecedented
I love watching all these, cause the Cowboys now are killing my soul maybe one day we will get back to the super bowl, cowboys had so many good players then and they very rarely get any love.
It took Jimmy 4 years but the only coach Jerry gave a chance to make a team was the clapper 10 years. Bill and Wade were the only ones that got 4 years but in today's game it takes longer.
Jimmy was a hellava coach hes in the 93 Superbowl episode, Jerrys ego ruined him and Jimmy's friendship, working relationship, I know they would have had 4 in row if Jimmy would not have left maybe more. The Cowboys just seem to be a disappointment every year after such high hopes!
The following year, before the NFC Championship against the "49ers" , "WE WILL WIN THE BALL GAME, and you can print it in 3 inch headlines: WE WILL WIN THE BALL GAME!"
Not a Cowboys fan, but I can’t deny that Dallas was dominant back when I was a little kid. Easily a soft spot for me seeing Dallas and they’re dominance in those days.
Thanks for uploading this video to UA-cam for posterity. My cowboys of 1992 is probably one of the best teams in history. I want Dak Prescott to propel himself into a super bowl QB. I just don't think he has it
Prescott is neither the problem or the solution. Jerry Jones has been the PROBLEM since the day he ran off Johnson. The SOLUTION will come a few years after the owner of the Cowboys last name is anything other than JONES.
@@jaysantos536 I fear that another wasted season is what's in store for the cowboys. Dak Prescott will have a losing record this year. He'll have a 1st place schedule this year and I just know he will under achieve in a big way
2021 here we are about to face the 49ers in the playoffs… let’s win this game and go on a special run! It won’t be easy but we can do it we can beat anyone anywhere anytime. Time to take back our rightful place among the greats! LETS END THIS DAMN SUPER BOWL DROUGHT. HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!
Never watched the 92 Cowboys because I wasn't born yet but watching this even I think, "Man there will never be a cowboys team or team this great again."
Haley was traded in August, not the Spring. He is literally the only reason Cowboys win 92 NFC Championship game. San Francisco to this days says it was the worst trade they ever made.
I was 4 I saw that poster at day care in Dallas Texas 1992 cowboys schedule the numbers 8, 22 and 88 alkman, smith and Irving they defeated buffalo bills twice that's I'm became a fan well still a fan of Big Bird on channel 13 and Bozo from WGN America newsnation.
The 34-10 beatdown of the Eagles was sweet revenge for the MNF debacle in Philadelphia. Three years later, there was icing on the cake with that 30-11 playoff win.
As a Packer fan, I remember how dumb the Vikings were to give all those picks for Hershel Walker. Then the cowboys won the super bowl and Green Bay won one in the 90s so I was happy.
It was just Tom's time to go Jimmy was the man and Jerry and his drunk mouth killed the Cowboys and still to this day we haven't recovered.......They always forget Novachek
Is the album that Troy Aikman sang a song for around 20:54-21:39 on UA-cam?... Aside from the song 'Oklahoma Nights', I still can't find the rest of it.
I was there, at the Coliseum for the Raiders and Cowboys. Several Raider fans started a huge fight and when the staff showed up and started throwing people out they tried to throw us out too even though we had nothing to do with it. Basically they were throwing out any Cowboy fan in the vicinity.
I dreamed that Kenny Norton play, called Norm Hitguz the next day talked to the DFW audience and told the world he was gonna do just that. Man the City was pumped!
The season before this was the year I became a Cowboys fan thanks to some great friends. I’ve been a fan ever since. Not so much here lately but if Jerry Jones would’ve put his pride aside there’s no telling how many more Super Bowls they would’ve won under Jimmy Johnson.
True story: I worked with a kid named @@@@ aikman. Nice kid. He claimed to be Troy aikmans cousin. We did home delivery together. So we were in the truck together all day. Finally I called him out on it. He grabbed his phone, called a contact in his phone, put it on speaker. A man says “what’s up buddy?” I said “hey, who is this? “ He says “Troy aikman, who the hell are you calling from my cousins phone?” I said “Troy aikman from the cowboys?” He said “one in the same”. His cousin spoke up after that lol he wasn’t bs ing.

I don't think people give Aikman credit where it's due. He only threw for 20 or more tds once in his career but it goes beyond numbers with him, it's the way he played in big games. And if he had to throw 30 to 35 times per game in a different offense he would've been more than capable of doing so. I'm no cowboys fan by any stretch, but in my opinion Aikman is a top 5 passer to ever play if your going strictly based on throwing mechanics and passing of the football
Troy didn't care about STATS, he just wanted to win !
He was as good as Bradshaw imo.
So true! The bigger the game, the better he played. Poor coaching, Free agency and the salary cap robbed him of team gel. As well as age, but in his prime, there was no one better. Period!
I agree also folks don’t take in to account how balanced their offense was Troy didn’t need to carry the load
I’ve said this for years, hire Michael Irvin as head coach, #1 He loves the Cowboys, #2 He knows football #3 Ultimate motivator for his #1 team he loves?
42:30 Notice how Jerry just rips the trophy from Jimmie? The selfishness and ego was always there. Jerry ruined the cowboys.
It's hard to believe that this season was 32 years ago. Time sure goes by fast.
I'm sad I never got to witness these days. I wass born 2 months after the Cowboys won their last Super Bowl. I think these days are long gone. I mean don't get me wrong, I think some day the Cowboys will win a Superbowl someday, but to have a team that was so dominant as this team. I would be absolutely shocked if the Cowboys ever got this good again.
ZERO chance because of the way they got all the great players in the 91, 92 and 93 drafts.
It was a fun time to be a Cowboys fan. They went from 1-15 to back to back superbowl wins in a few years.
Man I felt this comment 🤦🏽♂️😞. I was born in 90 and the first SB I remember was Bret Farve winning it the 96-97 season SmH. I too missed the glory days bro
Born in 86. I got to see every one, and did not grasp how great they really were until 10 years later when the teams were bad again. Different time of football too
I feel VERY fortunate to have seen the start of the Cowboys, then the SBs in the ‘70s (with my fav of ‘77) and then the’90s. I’m hoping for another Chip, hopefully in the next 2 seasons, though if the OL and Dak play well along with the D we have, it could be this year!
If jimmy had stayed, cowboys would of won at least 3 more rings. Damn you Jerry!
Jerry is and has an ego problem.
They both had huge egos
All the cowboys fans say that lol
@@johnjanuary2958 Exactly people act like they dont see that
11:12 Just love the segment from this part, fave of all the crazy moments in this entire series. Much Respect to Haley.
88 was our heartbeat when he went down in Philly my mom cried I mean cried and I thought man that's the heart of our team layin there and the end of their reign of the 90s it felt terrible
Man and I have unforgiveness for Philly for ending my idols career
That's crazy how I'm a huge Cowboys fan and I have to go back and watch these types of videos just to feel good about my team...
42:01-44:38 I get chills on this part. The Cowboys went from 1-15 to a Super Bowl in 4 years! America’s team was a champion again!
Never knew Jimmy n jerry were high school buddies. Damn he needa put him in the ring of honor asap
Halftime December 30th 2023
Love this 92 team up until then I’ve been waiting 16 season to witness my boys win our 3rd super bowl then we did a back to back … could of been 4 in a row unprecedented
As a Giants fan, this team was the Greatest Cowboys Team Ever.
Goosebumps
I'm a niners fan but I have huge respect for those 90s Cowboys, a true dinasty.
☝️🤠🇨🇱💍
Not even a Cowboys fan but loved this team!
88 was the heartbeat of that team he was a worker first star second
I'm just here reminiscing about the glory days after watching that devastating loss in San Francisco last night.
I love watching all these, cause the Cowboys now are killing my soul maybe one day we will get back to the super bowl, cowboys had so many good players then and they very rarely get any love.
It took Jimmy 4 years but the only coach Jerry gave a chance to make a team was the clapper 10 years. Bill and Wade were the only ones that got 4 years but in today's game it takes longer.
Jimmy was a hellava coach hes in the 93 Superbowl episode, Jerrys ego ruined him and Jimmy's friendship, working relationship, I know they would have had 4 in row if Jimmy would not have left maybe more. The Cowboys just seem to be a disappointment every year after such high hopes!
I remember them when I was a kid I'm 40 now 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Dont wont happen, we will be in the playoffs, what balls. What a coach. What a motivator. Just great
The following year, before the NFC Championship against the "49ers" , "WE WILL WIN THE BALL GAME, and you can print it in 3 inch headlines: WE WILL WIN THE BALL GAME!"
Been a bills fan ever since. 90’s has to be the heyday of football.
Love this. The bits at the end weren't on the original.
In my opinion the ,1992 is the best ever getting Haley was the key
27:34 number 1 ranked defence, yet no pro bowl players ? How the hell does that happen ?
🤔
DALLAS COWBOYS DEFENSE, UNCONSCIOUS!!
The NFC Championship game was the real Super Bowl. The 49ers were the #1 offense and the Cowboys were the # 1 defense.
Not a Cowboys fan, but I can’t deny that Dallas was dominant back when I was a little kid. Easily a soft spot for me seeing Dallas and they’re dominance in those days.
I jus hope the boys are ready for this Sunday. They gotta want it as bad as we the fans want it
Thanks for uploading this video to UA-cam for posterity. My cowboys of 1992 is probably one of the best teams in history. I want Dak Prescott to propel himself into a super bowl QB. I just don't think he has it
Prescott is neither the problem or the solution. Jerry Jones has been the PROBLEM since the day he ran off Johnson. The SOLUTION will come a few years after the owner of the Cowboys last name is anything other than JONES.
@@jaysantos536 I fear that another wasted season is what's in store for the cowboys. Dak Prescott will have a losing record this year. He'll have a 1st place schedule this year and I just know he will under achieve in a big way
@@cranstoncoleman773 Stop with the "fear" sir and find something else more meaningful to do with your emotions, time and money. Good luck!
I think Prescott will shock all the non-believers and have his best season by far!
Not goin happen. The boy just ain’t that good.
Best cowboys team ever and it's not even close
The 1992-93 Cowboys were one of the best NFL teams in history...and that's not even close!
1977 was great too
@@davettabowers6359 this team beat better teams than 77 but yeah that 77 team was lit
2021 here we are about to face the 49ers in the playoffs… let’s win this game and go on a special run! It won’t be easy but we can do it we can beat anyone anywhere anytime. Time to take back our rightful place among the greats! LETS END THIS DAMN SUPER BOWL DROUGHT.
HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!
Not this year, Buddy!
Never watched the 92 Cowboys because I wasn't born yet but watching this even I think, "Man there will never be a cowboys team or team this great again."
How bout them Cowboys! Americas team!💖🏈🇺🇸
The most underrated unit in history Is that defense.
I would rate this team among the best
Haley was traded in August, not the Spring. He is literally the only reason Cowboys win 92 NFC Championship game. San Francisco to this days says it was the worst trade they ever made.
The addition of Thomas Everett that same year solidified our defense, and Eric Williams on offense, completed the whole team
Learned by watching this... How important it is to make right decisions in right time - right age
I was 4 I saw that poster at day care in Dallas Texas 1992 cowboys schedule the numbers 8, 22 and 88 alkman, smith and Irving they defeated buffalo bills twice that's I'm became a fan well still a fan of Big Bird on channel 13 and Bozo from WGN America newsnation.
The 34-10 beatdown of the Eagles was sweet revenge for the MNF debacle in Philadelphia. Three years later, there was icing on the cake with that 30-11 playoff win.
On my birthday the 25th remember being ❤️ broken that day no more Tom was devastated.
As a Packer fan, I remember how dumb the Vikings were to give all those picks for Hershel Walker. Then the cowboys won the super bowl and Green Bay won one in the 90s so I was happy.
These cowboys were as big of a deal as the bulls during the same years
Cowboys were bigger
@@nevergonnabesilent not internationally
@@wce05308 True. Football wasnt very international back then
@@nevergonnabesilent yep in America they were huge but overseas the bulls were the shit.
Aikman to Irvin passes are top 5.
Watching this the day after we lose to the 49ers
Aikman was the first dime thrower in the league. period.
LOL delusional
I like these little shorts at the end.
Michael Irvin “Where is your clothes? What are you doing “
All time greatest cowboys team ever
It was just Tom's time to go Jimmy was the man and Jerry and his drunk mouth killed the Cowboys and still to this day we haven't recovered.......They always forget Novachek
Michael Irvin you just got my respect, looking out for the team, letting the coach know they are not winners now that took GUTS
Is the album that Troy Aikman sang a song for around 20:54-21:39 on UA-cam?...
Aside from the song 'Oklahoma Nights', I still can't find the rest of it.
So, this is definitely an extended version of this episode of "America's Game."
The additions are on the DVD on the "special features" part
I was there, at the Coliseum for the Raiders and Cowboys. Several Raider fans started a huge fight and when the staff showed up and started throwing people out they tried to throw us out too even though we had nothing to do with it. Basically they were throwing out any Cowboy fan in the vicinity.
He should've said "I need my inhaler" would've sounded better lol
I dreamed that Kenny Norton play, called Norm Hitguz the next day talked to the DFW audience and told the world he was gonna do just that. Man the City was pumped!
42:40 jerry pulls the trophy from jimmy 😂
I noticed that he had habit of doing that, especially with Switzer. Very selfish.
I really do miss smash mouth football.
I absolutely love that Jimmy Johnson didnt care that Michael Irvin was not on the plane
After today's game against Green Bay I really believe we need a change so sad and embarrassing game
This really does feel like rock bottom
83, 84 & 80 dont get near enough credit. KMart, Jay, and Harper were instrumental in those early years of success.
The season before this was the year I became a Cowboys fan thanks to some great friends. I’ve been a fan ever since. Not so much here lately but if Jerry Jones would’ve put his pride aside there’s no telling how many more Super Bowls they would’ve won under Jimmy Johnson.
Emotional lighting rod of the team Michael irwin
True story: I worked with a kid named @@@@ aikman. Nice kid. He claimed to be Troy aikmans cousin. We did home delivery together. So we were in the truck together all day. Finally I called him out on it. He grabbed his phone, called a contact in his phone, put it on speaker. A man says “what’s up buddy?” I said “hey, who is this? “ He says “Troy aikman, who the hell are you calling from my cousins phone?” I said “Troy aikman from the cowboys?” He said “one in the same”. His cousin spoke up after that lol he wasn’t bs ing.
1992 And 1993 Dallas Cowboys Greatest Dynasty Team Of The Early 90s ☺🏈 In My Opinion
World Champions worked from bottom to top! Nothing like the 1st win
