I was a little too young for that era but I missed the entire 1980s and 1990s era football. And to be honest if you're the 2000 season to about 2010 wasn't too bad either but after 2010 it sure went downhill.

I miss it too, the rules were way more balanced and you could have great teams. Free agency, cap have insured mediocrity and add to that rule changes have made playing defense almost impossible

Thank you for loading this. It's a very important game in the history of football in this era. Although the Cowboys won another divisional championship, Roger Staubach said the beating he took in this game (23:27) was one factor that resulted in his retirement after the season. For the Steelers, they took particular joy in winning against a team they despised.

Good year to be a Pittsburgh sports fan Pirates won ( thier last one) world series Steelers won their 4th Superbowl (1980) against The Rams. Remember watching the game at a place called Raleigh Hills, it was a drug/Alcoholic Rehab place in Newport Beach, my mom was there for several days. I had struggles with it too, she's been gone 20 years( end of March)and I quit on my own with help and prayer, 24 years now, doing pretty good, even no beer either.

@@deputy3690 90s cowboys were good but they won 2 SBs from the Bills who like most AFC teams of the 90s weren't as competitive as the NFC. Then u have SB 30 where u can thank Neil O'Donnell as your Mvp. U look at the stats and the Steelers out played them in almost every aspect of the game.Take away the 2 ints that he threw and Steelers win that one. But a win is still a win. But no way were the 90s Cowboys better than the 70s Steelers.

@Ed G The Cowboys demolished the Forty Niners in the Championship game two years in row and outscored the Bills 82-30 in the two Super Bowls. The Cowboys were bigger and quicker than those Steeler teams to. Although we will never know which team was superior for sure, it is fun debating.
