How the Cowboys Dynasty Died: The Fall & Rock Bottom (1996–2002) | Good Friends, Better Rivals

Three Super Bowls. Back-to-back-to-back dominance. And then… nothing.In Part 1 of our four-part series on why the Dallas Cowboys haven't won a Super Bowl in 30 years, Fares and Caleb go all the way back to where it started to unravel. The dynasty didn't just fade — it collapsed. Jerry Jones fired the coach who built it, the locker room fell apart, and by the time the dust settled, the Cowboys were one of the worst teams in the NFL.From the chaotic final years of Barry Switzer to the Chan Gailey and Dave Campo eras, this is the story of how a franchise that had everything lost it all — and why the decisions made in this window set the tone for the next three decades of failure.How does a dynasty turn into a disaster in under five years? We're breaking it all down.
