Re: 1994 Cowboys

Three peats are nearly impossible. It's only happened twice in the NFL, both times the Packers, and one of those times was before the NFL played championship games. Browns did it in the AAFC. That's it in pro football history. Baseball? You have the Yankees and the A's. That's it.

What the Cowboys did was remarkable; a lot went wrong for them in the first half of that 94 NFC Championship. And that's against a 49ers team that likely would have won multiple Super Bowls if not for the Cowboys. Part of what made Dallas great was the combination of Aikman, Irvin, Emmitt, Jay Novacek, and Moose Johnston. Johnston was a great blocker and could make plays out of the backfield. Novacek was an exceptional tight end. That offense was excessively difficult to stop on third down and on other key moments of the game.

IMHO, one of the best teams I've ever seen. Not as good as the 70s Steelers and 80s 49ers, who I think were both more consistent, but they were close.

Larry Brown was an above-average player. Won a Super Bowl MVP. He knew how to read offensive alignments well. Had a key pick against Chicago in the playoffs in 91. Average players don't perform and read that well.
