Dallas Cowboys vs. San Francisco 49ers History
Because the Cowboys and 49ers do not play in the same division within the NFC, their interdivisional rivalry means they play once every three years in the regular season per the NFL’s rotating schedule. Through the 2023–2024 regular season, though, the Cowboys and 49ers have played 41 times total, with San Fran leading 21–19–1.

The rivalry between the Cowboys and 49ers dates all the way back to 1960, when the two teams played on November 20, a game the 49ers won 26–14. The Cowboys would go on to exact their revenge on the 49ers, stacking playoff wins in 1970,1971 and 1972 over the 49ers: two games were in the NFC Championship and one in the Divisional Round.
The two franchises met again in the 1981 NFC Championship game in San Francisco, one of the most famous games in NFL history where Dwight Clark caught the game-winning touchdown pass from Joe Montana to eliminate the Cowboys. The play is now commonly referred to by NFL fans as “The Catch.”
The flames of the rivalry were stoked again between 1992–1994 when the Cowboys and 49ers played each other in three consecutive NFC Championship games, where the winner would ultimately go on to claim the Super Bowl title. Dallas got the best of San Francisco in 1992 and 1993, but the 49ers got revenge in 1994.
