This franchise has now been irrelevant for longer than it was the NFL's greatest team. I came of age being a fan of a team that had been to a record 8 Super Bowls and won 5, was one of 4 "teams of the decade," and had won more games in another of the decades than that decade's "team" (the Steelers). Had been to the playoffs an unprecedented like 20 times in a row. They were the most popular and most valuable organization in the sport. There was almost no argument that from 1960-1995 the Dallas Cowboys were the NFL's premier franchise.
And now the length of time that they've been nothing, not even to a Conference championship, a time in which they have 5 PLAYOFF WINS (and one of them came the very year after this period of time counting started).... is longer than that period of dominance.
The Cowboys are ancient history. They are an also ran franchise at this point.
We're the Chicago Bears. A team that used to be great, and now is a punch line, one of the worst franchises in the sport.
