From 'The Catch' to 'Defending the Star,' Sunday night's game represents a new era for one of the best rivalries in NFL history.
will be in Santa Clara, California, to face off against the San Francisco 49ers in front of a national TV audience. It's the latest installment in the most intriguing rivalry the Cowboys are currently embroiled in.
Going back to the pre-Super Bowl days of the late ’60s, then into the Roger Staubach-led 1970s glory years and on to the ‘90s dominance of Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin and Emmitt Smith, the team that local fans hated the most changed with each generation. But for those who were teenagers in the ‘90s, when the Cowboys rose from the lowest depths of the NFL to the pinnacle of glamor and excellence, it’s hard to overstate just how exciting, terrifying and all-encompassingbetween the Cowboys and 49ers were. Thanks to their facing off in the NFC Championship in three consecutive seasons , the images of blue and silver clashing against scarlet and gold on a muddy field have been forever engraved inside our collective hippocampus.
Most sad or laughable, depending on how you view Ezekiel Elliott's time as a Dallas Cowboy lightning rod, the loss in January 2023 was his last with a star on his helmet. That his Dallas days ended with an embarrassing trick play with Zeke as the center and sole blocker for QB Prescott — a play that saw him get practically plowed into the crowd — is either hilarious or just more tragic salt in a gaping wound.
