Growing up in the 90s, I preferred football over Power Rangers. During that time, in the early 90s especially, the NFL seemingly scheduled the Cowboys and 49ers every season. Not just the 90s but the two teams engaged in key moments in NFL history as well.

One of the most iconic moments ever occurred in January 1982 as 49ers tight end Dwight Clark made “The Catch” in the 1981 NFC Championship game. Along with that and the memorable games between the two franchises in the early 90s, there is a type of mystique when these two teams get together.

While this edition of Cowboys/49ers lacks a plethora of stars as the past encounters shown us once upon a time, it still has intrigue. Without a key playmaker in the offense, can the Dallas Cowboys (2-1) pick up a win in favorable circumstances or will Chip Kelly and his 49ers (1-2) bunch steal one? Let’s take a look at the preview for Cowboys & 49ers.
