1992 Dallas Cowboys season

The Cowboys would win the first of three Super Bowl titles in the next four years. Over the course of three seasons the Cowboys went from the worst team in the league to NFL champions. At the time, the Cowboys were the youngest team ever to win a Super Bowl. This season would also rekindle the rivalry between the Cowboys and the San Francisco 49ers, whom the Cowboys defeated in the NFC Championship Game. They would meet again in the next two NFC title games in what many consider to be a classic series of contest. During this time the NFC Championship Games between the two was seen as the unofficial NFL championship game due to the Cowboys and 49ers continued dominance, and the fact that the winner of the contest would go on to win the Super Bowl rather handily directly afterwards. Dallas would struggle early, but regroup and route the Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl XXVII forcing a record 9 turnovers and knocking Bills quarterback Jim Kelly out of the game. Troy Aikman would earn Super Bowl MVP honors, wrapping up a phenomenal post-season in which he completed 68% of his passes with eight touchdowns and no interceptions. Notable additions to the team this year included defensive end Charles Haley, cornerback Kevin Smith, linebacker Robert Jones, safety Thomas Everett, safety Darren Woodson and wide receiver Jimmy Smith(though Smith would never catch a pass during his time with the team).Infobox NFL_season
