Super Bowl XIII: 1979, vs Pittsburgh Steelers (loss) This was an exciting Super Bowl for a few reasons. It was a defense-dominant Cowboys team that forced eight turnovers and allowed only eight pass completions and 61 yards to the Broncos that helped the Cowboys to the 27-10 victory over the Denver Broncos. Perhaps this was due to it being the first Super Bowl to ever be played in prime time in the Eastern US, or perhaps it was just because Staubach and company were so fun to watch.

#Who won the super bowl last year update
It does feel like it’s been a while, huh? Yeah, that’s because it has.Īnd (as an update to this article) it will be ANOTHER year before the Dallas Cowboys can win it, as they crashed out on Sunday 16 January on Wild Card Weekend, losing to the 49ers, 23-17, though they still had a chance to win it right up to the end, when Prescott got his time management all wrong. Just type in “When was the last time” into Google and that’s the first thing that comes up.
If you find yourself thinking, ‘man when IS the last time the Cowboys went to the Super Bowl anyway?’, you’re not alone.
