The 1993 Dallas Cowboys were the first team to start a season 0-2 and win the Super Bowl. You probably knew that. Much of the reason that the ‘93 team lost their first two games had to do with the fact that arguably their best player, Emmitt Smith, held out to start the season in his quest to earn a new contract with the team. Smith eventually got paid, the Cowboys won, and everything was good again.
It’s been 27 years since that fateful season (time sure does fly) and a lot has changed in the NFL.
