The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team based in Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Cowboys compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the National Football Conference (NFC) East Division.[2] The Cowboys joined the NFL as an expansion team in 1960 and have played their home games at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, since 2009.[1][3][4] Originally a member of the NFL Western Conference, the team was moved to the NFL Eastern Conference in 1961 after just one season, they remained in this conference until 1970.[5] In 1967 the NFL subdivided the Eastern and Western conferences into divisions, assigning the Cowboys to the NFL Capitol Division.[6] In 1970, as part of the AFL–NFL merger, the Cowboys were reassigned to the National Football Conference (NFC). In addition to being reassigned conferences, the Cowboys division, the NFL Capitol Division, was renamed to the NFC East Division.[7][8]

The franchise has made it to the Super Bowl eight times, tying it with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos for second-most Super Bowl appearances in history behind the New England Patriots' record 11 appearances. Of their eight appearances, the Cowboys have won five Super Bowls (Super Bowls VI, XII, XXVII, XXVIII and XXX) which is tied for the seventh most total championships amongst all 32 NFL franchise.[4][9] The Cowboys have won eight NFC championships, tied for most in the conference's history. The Cowboys are the only NFL team to record 20 consecutive winning seasons (from 1966 to 1985) during which they missed the playoffs only twice (1974 and 1984).[3][10] The Cowboys have won their division 25 times, which is tied for the second-most with the New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers, behind only the Green Bay Packers (with 31).[9]

Over their 64 seasons in the NFL, the Cowboys have accumulated a record of 562 wins, 413 losses, and 6 ties in the regular season, which is the best all-time regular season record among active franchises in terms of win–loss percentage.[9] They have also made the playoffs 36 times, an NFL record shared with the Green Bay Packers, and have the eighth-best playoff record in terms of win–loss percentage with 36 wins and 31 losses.[9][11] The team currently has had 40 winning seasons, 18 losing seasons, and 6 seasons with as many wins as losses.[12]

Notes

  1. ^ The Cowboys played in the NFL's Western Division for the 1960 season, but were a "swing team" and played each of the other 12 teams in the league that year. When the Minnesota Vikings joined the league for the 1961 season, the owners of the Eastern Division teams were allowed to vote on which expansion franchise they wanted to be permanently assigned to their division. The result was the Cowboys joining the NFL's Eastern Division.[5]
  2. ^ In 1961, the NFL expanded its regular season schedule, which had been 12 games since 1947, to 14 games.[19]
  3. ^ In 1967, the NFL divided conferences into divisions, resulting in two divisions in each of the two conferences. Up to 1967, the league was either divided its two divisions into, two conferences, or neither.[6]
  4. ^ a b In 1970, the NFL and American Football League (AFL) officially merged in the AFL–NFL merger to form one league with two conferences. All ten former AFL teams as well as Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Baltimore from the pre-merger NFL joined the AFC; the other thirteen remaining NFL teams joined the NFC. Each of those two were divided into three divisions: East, Central, and West.[7][8]
  5. ^ In 1978, the NFL expanded its regular season schedule, which had been 14 games since 1961, to 16 games.[19][41]
  6. ^ The 1982 season was shortened to nine games after a players' strike. The top eight teams in each conference advanced to the playoffs.[45]
  7. ^ The 1987 NFL strike caused the schedule to be reduced to 15 games.[52]
  8. ^ In 2002, the NFL realigned to create four divisions in both conferences with four teams in each division.[68]
  9. ^ In 2021, the NFL expanded its regular season schedule, which had been 16 games since 1978, to 17 games.[19][94]
