"From the infamous muffed field goal hold by Tony Romo in 2006 to the "Dez Caught It" heartbreak in 2014, to even the bizarre time-expiring failed spike by Dak Prescott in 2021, the Cowboys found new ways to disappoint us year in and year out. Since 1996, the team has a dismal 5-13 playoff record, and as everyone and their brother knows, they haven't reached a single NFC Championship Game in that span."
"While Jones has turned the franchise into a $13 billion global behemoth, fans increasingly feel that his unique approach to roster building is the primary culprit behind the drought. The front office has rightfully earned a reputation for being bargain shoppers in free agency. For 10 consecutive offseasons, the Cowboys haven't signed a single outside free agent to a contract that exceeds $6 million per year. They have consistently finished near the bottom in spending on outside talent over the last decade."
The Dallas Cowboys have not won a Super Bowl since 1995 and have produced recurring, memorable playoff failures. High-profile miscues include Tony Romo's 2006 muffed hold, the controversial Dez Bryant non-catch in 2014, and Dak Prescott's 2021 failed spike. Since 1996 the team is 5-13 in playoffs and has not reached an NFC Championship Game. Owner and de facto general manager Jerry Jones has made the franchise extremely valuable but faces criticism for roster construction. The front office has limited outside free-agent spending for a decade, avoiding contracts over $6 million and finishing near the bottom in outside-talent spending.
