Oh, how the turn tables. I remember when championships before 1967 didn't count.

I mean, the merger is pretty significant. :lol:

Super Bowl rings shouldn't expire though. Patriot fans shouldn't be thinking "better enjoy it now because in 25 years it's back to having no rings"

[Jerry Jones] wouldn’t have a problem working with him [Bill Belichick].

This is already a big problem. Jerry shouldn't be working with anybody. He should be sitting his elderly ass in his booth in AT&T on Sundays, and let the actual football guys do the working.

I don't think anyone says Superbowl history starts with the 1996 season, just that 30 years ago is a long time to be the last Superbowl your team won if you're talking about being a premier team

If we get to 2048 and the Pats haven't made it out of the divisional round, it'll be the same thing. Their era would be in the distant past, not really relevant to the modern day.

IMO he is already doing that and Steven is doing most of the GMing

What makes you say this? Jerry has been trying to rid of the ghost of Jimmy Johnson for almost 30 years now, trying to show us how it was in fact him that was the mastermind behind the 90s dynasty. What suddenly might have changed in him to give away power? I ain't buying it, and the Derrick Henry saga this past summer has all the Jerry stink over it.

The truth of the matter is that as long as Jerry is breathing, the Cowboys will remain as fodders. Of course, in the unfortunate event of his passing you'd be stuck with his son, which might even be worse.

The NFL grew by 6 teams since 1973.

The AFL consisted of 8 teams in 1960.

So 2 more teams until the first Cowboys ring expires, I guess.

I do agree the pre-merger championships are different than Superbowls, and I don't think any championship "expires" per se, but there is a limit on how long it makes you relevant

Until a few months ago, the Celtics were a historic franchise but had one ring in over 30 years. The Knicks have as many championships as the Bucks, and more than 19 other teams, but they're not really relevant cause it's been 50 years.

They will be after this season with Mikal and Towns on their roster now while getting rid of their most inefficient starter when healthy that would have hindered their winning progess.

Cause if I were born a few months later, I could say the Jags have as many playoff wins in my lifetime as the Cowboys, and lead in conference championship appearances 3-0

Anyways, since 1996 the Cowboys have the same amount of playoff wins as the Jags, and have made it out of the divisional round 0 times to the Jags' 3.

You mean the Cowboys gave the Jags 30 YEARS to catch up in the SB win column and they couldn’t even get 1 SB win? And that’s what you’re bragging about?

The loser mentality is out of control on this site.

Yeah but Jerry wins either way because instead of asking for accountability Cowboys fans rather bury their heads in the sand and obssess over other teams
