Today we return to a series I began last year. For the unfamiliar, I’m looking at Cowboys’ history in five-year increments. As we all know the Dallas Cowboys have a long and storied history. The team ranks:
- Second (tie) in Super Bowl appearances
- First in playoff victories (despite many teams having played for decades longer)
- First in playoff games played
- Second in playoff appearances (again, despite many teams having played many more seasons)
- Second in total wins since NFL-AFL merger
- Most profitable sports franchise in North America
In short, the Dallas Cowboys have been a great NFL franchise and their history is worth celebrating.
