Bill Walsh was right stating, "If Jerry & Jimmy think they're gonna have the same success without each other, they're wrong". 26 years later neither has had the same success.

[@SFforlife]

Bill was a genius.

[@damienwhited87]

It ended up being true. Switzer was good really in 1994 & 1995 with the Cowboys before they lost to Carolina in the Divisional round in 1996 & went 6-10 in 1997. Parcells tried to get them back to the Super Bowl & Jason Garrett tried a couple times or so to get them there, but they ended up not getting even to the NFC Championship game. Jimmy Johnson ended up going to the Miami Dolphins and basically went out with a whimper as Jacksonville beat Miami in Marino's last game as Dolphins QB in January 2000 by a final score of 62-7. I think that was Jimmy Johnson's last game as a head coach as well. So, Bill Walsh ended up being right after all. Jerry Jones really messed up big time with basically firing Jimmy Johnson because of their egos, especially Jerry's getting out of hand.

[@Murf_Workshop]

there was a 14 year stretch in the NFL where the NFC teams won the Super Bowl starting in 84 with San Francisco over the Dolphins. Many of the AFC teams through that stretch fell to the Defensive and Ground-game philosophy that the NFC coaches carried; i.e. Walsh, Ditka, Parcells, Gibbs, Johnson, Holmgren. Mike Shanahan (a member of Bill Walsh's coaching tree) broke that streak (ironically using Terrell Davis heavily in the backfield.

The worst decision Jerry Jones made was getting rid of Jimmy Johnson. Johnson built that team, Jones did not. Barry Switzer won a Super Bowl with Jimmy Johnson's men. Barry Switzer and Jerry Jones were not able to retool that team.

[@byrongammonbyrongammon9937]

That's correct. Switzer was a joke of a football coach. Jerry Jones ruined a good thing.

[@davidwilliams8822]

Marcus Vachon This is 100% true

[@allendaniel7405]

That's because Jerry wanted to be the GM, the president, and president of football operations. And his team hasn't had any success ever since.

[@ixoyedeg]

Jerry has a ton of blame to bear, and it’s his ineptitude that has led to 22 years of futility. That said, even Jimmy has admitted that he had planned to resign that spring regardless because he was just burnt out from going 180 miles an hour for 5 years. I think the incident at the owner’s meetings simply gave him a way to exit without having to look like a quitter.

[@smoothALOE]

Marcus Vachon we all like to think that the Cowboys would’ve won 4 straight SBs if Jimmy Johnson had remained the head coach. There’s no way he would’ve allowed that team to fall behind 21-0 in the 1st quarter.

I was a kid too and remember this rivalry well. Loved the 49ers, hated but respected the Cowboys. And yes, there was always tension between the two (it was war). I was crushed when Charles Haley got traded to the Cowboys but didn't know at the time that he didn't want to leave San Francisco but was forced to go. Glad to now hear Eddie (the owner) admit it was his worst mistake.Then I rejoiced when the Niners got Ken Norton Jr from Dallas and acquired Deion.

Leonard Marshall turned Joe Montana into Humpty Dumpty. Erik Howard destroyed any hope Roger Craig had of making the Hall Of Fame when he caused that fumble that LT recovered.

I am a forty plus year 49er fan. I have to give a ton of credit to the Cowboys. We made a major mistake trading Haley to them, but the key was all the draft picks from the Walker trade and using them as well as they did. It was one hell of a rivalry.

[@jackduncan5442]

It was what they did with the draft picks.

[@michaelleroy9281]

Charles Haley came back to the Niners about 5 years after he went to the Cowboys

[@barryglover7100]

Dallas beat themselves in that 3rd nfc champ game. Going down 21 to 0 cuz of turnovers was too hard to overcome.

[@maluvalentino]

Top 3 Rivalries in my lifetime: 1. 49ers vs. Cowboys (80s&90s) 2. Ravens vs. Steelers (00s-10s) 3. Seahawks vs. 49ers (10s-current)

[@jtc9098]

Patriots vs. Steelers is up there too. The Patriots have been a thorn in their side for years. I hate the Patriots, but as a Cowboys fan I hate the Steelers just a little more.

[@ariesmusa2709]

Patriots vs Colts was good too

[@shakiemjeanjoseph428]

This rivalry is amazing between the Dallas Cowboys and the San Francisco 49ers

[@Nick_Valentine2702]

It was PI on Deion

[@phillyfan-182]

The 49ers and cowboys have played each other in the playoffs the last 2 years so the rivalry has been renewed

[@BlackConserativeKing]

Can't wait for this Sunday!!

[@velvetlensfilms3290]

My family and I moved to America in the early 80s to the Bay Area. From that point on when we learned about football we hated the cowboys and still do. 49ers forever.

[@time391]

The 49ers biggest mistake was not taking Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers, the 49ers had two local boys who could have taken them all the way a dozen times over. The Jimmy Garapolo trade is nice for 49ers with shanahan as head coach, but so much time was wasted

[@byrongammonbyrongammon9937]

The 49ers are idiots for forcing Jim Harbaugh out after rebuilding that team. Idiots.

[@Am-Not-Jarvis]

They would have ruined Rodgers like they almost did with Smith

The EGO of Jerry Jones destroyed one single teams ownership of the word DYNASTY of the likes never before seen in sports. Only this year has AN UNDOUBTEDLY SURE LIKELIHOOD OF A SUPERBOWL TROPHY felt like it did then. That's a whole buncha years y'all to overcome THAT ONE DESTRUCTIVE MOVE BY JERRY JOMES. All he had to do was BACK THE HELL OF OF JIMMY, and the string of Superbowl wins would still have The New England Patriots looking up. People say that they have no regrets b'cuz they wouldn't be who they are today! But I GA-RONNN-TEE that's one regret that doesn't apply.

It's a shame both teams were in the same conference. Would've been a awesome Super Bowl no doubt.

I hope so I wanna see this rivalry again

[@ortezchambliss3189]

Between these TWO……I’m COWBOY NATION!!! I’ve NEVER cheered for the 49ers, but I like PATRICK WILLIS. And I WANTED to see him vs RAY LEWIS in the SUPER BOWL!!! Thats my FAVORITE SUPER BOWL during the modern era.

[@stryker5673]

This was the top rivalry of the early 90s. Coming in at second was Bills-Dolphins around this time

[@AH-vo4ww]

COWBOYS, 49ERS, JOHN MADDEN AND PAT SUMMERAL...FOOTBALL AT ITS BEST ALL TIME !!!

[@dukeon]

These teams were so loaded it came down to individual superstars to push one over the other. Look at the legends that played for both clubs - Charles Haley, Ken Norton, Jr., and Deion Sanders. Absolute gamesmanship between two of the most storied teams in football and two of the owners with the deepest pockets. 80-95 was probably my favorite era of football.

[@suziewheeler6530]

As a life long Dallas fan since 1964...i hate Jerry Jones....the way he treated tom Landry is deplorable...then after Johnson rebuilt it to a great team deep sixed him to....how stupid was that

[@jackduncan5442]

That IDIOT Jerry Jones destroyed what WOULD HAVE BEEN the greatest dynasty ever. A 4 peat at the least.
