When the Cowboys lifted their fifth Super Bowl in the 1995 season, few could imagine that it would be the last time for a long time. The figures of the size of Roger Staubach and Troy Aikman seemed to be given by decree in a franchise destined for success. 27 years laterhowever, the idea has changed, Dallas has not been able to win a super bowland it hasn’t even been close.

The recent elimination after losing to the 49ers adds to a long list of failures. Since that super bowlthe Cowboys haven’t even contested a conference championshipThey have only been able to make it to the playoffs 12 times, something unacceptable for a team with such a tradition.
NEITHER CARTER NOR BLUENT
After the withdrawal of Troy Aikman, the cowboys They gave the reins of the offense to Quincy Carter. The quarterback came as a second round draft pick, however he was never able to establish himself. The closest he came to glory was in the 2003 season, but the dream ended soon after he lost in the wild card round to the Carolina Panthers.

Faced with the failures of experienced men like Drew Bledsoe Y Viny Testaverdethe opportunity came Tony Romeo.

Tony Romo led the team until the divisional round of the 2014 campaign, however, they could not with the packers in the mythical Lambeau Field falling 21-26; that was the last chance for the quarterback to transcend, but he wasted it.
DAK PRESCOTT, MANY MILLIONS, FEW RESULTS
The story of dak prescott with the Cowboys It’s love and hate. The illusion that he generated upon his arrival is proportional to the disappointment that he left in each of the campaigns in which he, for one reason or another, was unable to lead his team to the top.
