Introduction
The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Cowboys compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) East division. The team is headquartered in Frisco, Texas, and plays its home games at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which opened for the 2009 season. The stadium took the place of the closed Texas Stadium, which served as the Cowboys’ home through the 2008 season. The Cowboys joined the NFL as an expansion team in 1960. The team’s national following might best be represented by its NFL record of consecutive sell-outs. The Cowboys’ streak of 160 sold-out regular and post-season games began in 2002. The franchise has made it to eight Super Bowls, tied with Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos for second most Super Bowl appearances in history behind New England Patriots’ nine appearances. They are also the only NFL team to record 20 straight winning seasons (1966–1985),[10][11] in which they missed the playoffs only twice (1974 and 1984).
The Early Years
The early years of the Dallas Cowboys were not particularly successful. In fact, they only won two games in their first season. But the fans were still behind them, and they continued to support the team through thick and thin.
One of the most popular players on the team during those early years was quarterback Roger Staubach. He was known for his ability to scramble out of trouble and make big plays happen.
One day, a fan asked him why he thought the team wasn’t doing very well.
Staubach replied, “Well, you have to understand, we’re playing against some really good teams. And we’re just not that good yet.”
The Tom Landry Era
Landry coached the Cowboys for 29 seasons (1960–88), a period of time that included 20 consecutive winning seasons ( 1966–85),
5 NFC titles, and 2 Super Bowl wins. In 1970, he led theCowboys to its first ever Super Bowl victory. In 1975 and 1977, the Cowboys made it back to the Super Bowl, but lost both times. Landry is considered one of the greatest and most innovative coaches in NFL history. He created many new formations and schemes, such as the 4-3 defense and the “Flex Defense”, which was later known asthe “Cover 2”.
During his tenure as head coach, Landry compiled a 270–178–6 record, giving him an overall winning percentage of .602. His 20 career playoff victories are the second most of any head coach in NFL history, behind only Belichick’s 21.
The Jimmy Johnson Era
The Jimmy Johnson Era was one of the most successful periods in Dallas Cowboy history, as the team won two Super Bowls during his tenure. However, it was also a time of great change and tumult, as Johnson famously feuded with team owner Jerry Jones. As a result, Johnson’s time with the Cowboys was relatively short-lived, but nonetheless memorable. Here are some funny Dallas Cowboy jokes from that era:
Q: What do you call a Dallas Cowboy without an Super Bowl ring?
A: A janitor.
Q: How many Dallas Cowboys does it take to win a Super Bowl?
A: Only one, but they need a lot of help from the other team.
The Barry Switzer Era
The Barry Switzer era was one of the most successful periods in Dallas Cowboys history, but it was also a time when the team generated a lot of headlines for off-the-field antics. Here are some of the funniest jokes about those crazy cowboys from that era.
Q: How many Dallas Cowboys does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Only one, but he gets three penalties and blows the game.
Q: What do you call a Dallas Cowboy with an IQ of 120?
A: Mensa
The Jason Garrett Era
Jason Garrett was hired as the Cowboys head coach in 2011 after the firing of Wade Phillips. During his first two seasons, the team had a combined record of 16-16. In 2013, they went 8-8 again, but this time managed to win a wild card spot and beat the Lions in the Wild Card round before losing to the Packers in the divisional round. In 2014, they went 12-4 and won their division, but lost to eventual NFC Champion Seattle Seahawks in the divisional round.
