How 'Bout Them Cowboys!

 

 

The Cowboys entered the 1992 season as the youngest team in the NFL so many experts dismissed their chances of bringing home the Vince Lombardi Trophy for that very reason, especially since they played in the league's toughest division with the defending World Champion Redskins, the Eagles and a Giants team that was a year removed from a World Championship. 

 

 

The Cowboys made few changes from the 1991 squad that lost in the NFC Semifinal Round.  They were able to acquire Charles Haley via trade from the 49ers to help solidify their pass rush and he did and they also acquired Thomas Everett from Pittsburgh, was the starting strong safety, and solidified the young secondary, which go younger when rookie Kevin Smith replaced veteran Issiac Holt as a starting cornerback 11 games into the season.  The Cowboys kept their defensive linemen fresh by rotating them in and out of the lineup.  The Cowboys' 4-3 defense boasted of four fine defensive tackles: Russell Maryland, Tony Casillas, Leon Lett, and Jimmie Jones.  Haley and Tony Tolbert were the stating defensive end and registered 6 and 8.5 sacks, respectively.  Jim Jeffcoat, a reserve end led the club with 10.5 sacks.  The Cowboys also had a linebacker rotation led by Ken Norton, Jr who plays both insie and outside.  Rookie Robert Jones was a good run stuffer on the inside and Vinson Smith and Godfrey Myles shared time on the outside.  Former 12th round pick Larry Brown was a solid starter at cornerback.  Starting free safety James Washington and nickelback Kenneth Gant led the team with 3 interceptions.  The defense led the NFL in fewest yards and 2nd in points allowed, yet sent no players to the Pro Bowl.

 

 

 

Quarterback Troy Aikman was the hottest QB in the NFL over the last 8 weeks of the regular season and playoffs.  During that stretch he threw 28 touchdowns and just 3 interceptions.  His 89.5 rating was third in the NFC, his 23 TD passes were 2nd in the NFC, and his 3445 passing yards were also second in the conference.  Halfback Emmitt Smith led all NFL rushers with 1,713 yards and 18 rushing TD's.  His 19 TD's overall also led the NFL.  Fullback Daryl "Moose" Johnston was one of the NFL's best lead blockers and gets some of the credit for Emmitt's success.  Wide receivers Michael Irvin and Alvin Harper are both young wideouts that are blessed with size, speed, and strength.  Irvin finished fourth in the NFC in receptions with 78 and 2nd in the NFC with 1,396 receiving yards.  He also scored 7 TD's, which was good for a fourth place tie among NFC receivers.  Harper finished third on the team with 562 yards on his 35 receptions.  Tight end Jay Novacek was the Cowboys second leading receiver in terms of receptions and yards with 68 and 630, respectively.  The Cowboys offensive line was the best in the NFL, sending two players to the Pro Bowl: center Mark Stepnoski and left guard Nate Newton. Right guard John Gesek, left tackle Mark Tuinei and right tackle Erik Williams played exceptionally well.  

 

 

The Cowboys started off their season with three wins against divisional opponents: a 23-10 defeat of the defending World Champs at home, a 34-28 win at Giants Stadium, and a 31-20 win t home against cellar dwelling Phoenix.  With an extra week to prepare, they traveled to Philly to play the Eagles with the division lead at stake and fell to the Eagles 31-7.  The Cowboys would respond with three straight wins against AFC West opponents Seattle and Kansas City at home, and in Los Angeles against the Raiders.  The following provided an opportunity for the Cowboys to pay the Eagles back and they were able to do so in the 20-10 win at home.  They would pay the Lions back for their playoff defeat in January with a 37-3 drubbing in Detroit.  After a letdown defeat at the hands of the Rams the following Sunday, the Cowboys would win three straight with a win in Phoenix 16-10, a 30-3 defeat of the Giants at home, and a 31-27 win in Denver.  The Cowboys would ravel to Washington and lost to the Redskins 20-17 before closing the regular season with two straight wins over Atlanta and Chicago to clinch their first division title since 1985.  The Cowboys would earn a bye and advance to the Divisional Playoff Round.

 

 

The Divisional Playoff Round would match the Cowboys up with division rival Philadelphia, who they split the season series with in 1992. The matchup would prove to be a success as the defense sacked the Eagles' Randall Cunningham 5 times and limited the Eagles to 178 yards total offense.  Troy Aikman completed 60% of his 25 passes with 2 going for TD's and the Cowboys ran for 160 yards in the 34-10 victory.  The following week the Cowboys played for the NFC Championship against the 14-2 49ers in Candlestick Park, the site of the 1981 NFC Championship.  That day, the young upstart 49ers knocked off the established power, the Cowboys, to reach their first Super Bowl.  This day represented a role reversal with the Cowboys playing the role of the young upstarts and the 49ers playing the role of the established power.  The Cowboys looked good early as they built a 24-13 heading into the fourth quarter.  The 49ers got to within 4 at 24-20 as Steve Young and Jerry Rice hooked up for a 5-yard touchdown with 4:22 to play.  The Cowboys stayed aggressive as Aikman threw a 70 yard completion to Alvin Harper to set up a 6 yard TD pass from Aikman to Kelvin Martin to make the score 30-20.  Lin Elliott's PAT attempt was blocked, but the 49ers could not score again.  The win advanced the Cowboys into the Super Bowl to play the Buffalo Bills. 

 

The Cowboys were just too much for the Buffalo Bills in the Super Bowl blowout.  The Cowboys forced Buffalo to turn the ball over a Super Bowl record 9 times (4 interceptions and 5 fumbles) and Troy Aikman completed 22 of 30 passes for 273 yards and 4 touchdowns to win Super Bowl MVP honors and the only blemish was Leon Lett's inability to sense Buffalo's Don Beebe reaching out to strip the football away from him as he was about to cross the goal line and score a TD to extend the lead to 59-17.  Instead, Lett fumbled and Buffalo took over at the 20 and the Cowboys had to settle for a 52-17 victory to win their first Super Bowl Championship in 15 years.

Halfback Emmitt Smith (pictured below) stepped into the elite class of running backs with his 1,713 rushing yards and 19 touchdowns from scrimmage.  He averaged 4.6 yards per carry in 1992.

Fourth year pro Troy Aikman continued his rapid rise to superstar status with 3445 yds., a 63.8 comp. pct, 23 TD passes, and an 89.5 passer rating in 1992.  Most importantly, he led the Cowboys to their third Super Bowl championship in franchise history.

Tight End Jay Novacek gets flipped as he catches a pass in the middle of the field in the NFC Title Game victory over the 49ers.  He finished second on the team in receptions and receiving yards in 1992.
