The Dallas Cowboys haven't been to the Super Bowl nearing three decades now, but if there's anything they can learn from history, they might be poised to make it to the big game next season.
With the frustration mounting among Cowboys fans, many are certainly clinging on any sign of hope or indication that the team is set to break the Super Bowl drought. On Monday, RJ Ochoa of SB Nation provided just that with an interesting stat that should get the Dallas faithful hyped up.
To recall, the Cowboys lost to the San Francisco 49ers in the Wild Card round of the 2021 playoffs. Apparently the last time that happened, Dallas bounced back the following season and won the Super Bowl. Interestingly, that was also the last time they won it all–which happened in 1995, following a postseason when the Niners took them down in the Conference Championship.
Last time that the Dallas Cowboys lost a playoff game to the San Francisco 49ers they won the Super Bowl the very next year. That Super Bowl took place in Arizona.

So does that mean the Cowboys are going to the Super Bowl next season? Well, it's no longer 1995. It is also worth noting that the Dallas team back then was perennial Super Bowl contenders, having won the title in 1992 and 1993 before missing it in 1994.
The current Cowboys squad hasn't won anything at all, with the franchise even failing to win a Conference Championship since their last title win.
If there is one thing going for America's team, though, they did play well in 2021 and looked like legitimate threats in the NFC with a 12-5 record. If there is anything they need, maybe a little bit of good luck helps–and as history suggests, it could be coming.
