The Dallas Cowboys’ wild-card win Monday night at Tampa Bay vaults them into Sunday’s divisional-round game at the 49ers, renewing a playoff rivalry that included a San Francisco win la…
Another 49ers-Cowboys playoff matchup is all set for those storied franchises, with each desperately seeking its first Super Bowl championship since their 1990s battles.The No. 5 Cowboys advanced with Monday night’s 31-14, wild-card win over seven-time champion Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who were the No. 4 seed but also 2 ½-point underdogs.
At stake Sunday is a spot in the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 29, and, ultimately, the chance to win what would be either franchise’s sixth Lombardi Trophy on Feb. 12 in Glendale, Ariz. The 49ers’ last Super Bowl win came in the 1994 season, after they knocked off the two-time reigning champion Cowboys 38-28 for the NFC Championship. The Cowboys rebounded to win the next season’s Super Bowl, and they haven’t been back on that stage since then.
The Cowboys’ first road playoff win since January 1993 at Candlestick Park finally came on Monday. A year ago to the day, the Cowboys lost 23-17 in the wild-card round at home — to the 49ers.Left tackle Jason Peters left the Cowboys’ win before halftime because of a hip injury, and that could intensify the 49ers’ pass rush from Nick Bosa , Charles Omenihu , Arik Armstead, Jordan Willis and others.
