Bochy Plus, Sanders Minus, Each Won Titles With Both Dallas/Texas And San Francisco Teams
Perhaps right now and oh does it change week to week, the S.F. Niners and Dallas Cowboys, each NFC teams that have met in 5 NFC Title Games/NFL Semis, are the two top teams in the NFL.
That, of course, is an arguable point.
In addition to S.F. and Dallas, the Philly Eagles and Baltimore Ravens have (9-3) records.
The S.F./Dallas thought led to Bruce Bochy as a positive, having guided the Texas Rangers to the most recent World Series crown, it, their first, occurring in the once Washington Senators franchise’s 62nd completed season.
Meanwhile De Sanders and his Colorado team, which has two of his sons on the roster and as viable participants, got so much publicity, even a segment on 60 Minutes, after a (3-0) start.
Colorado finished (4-8) and did not make one of the “half million” bowl games, so many of which are adversely affected by the transfer portal and the reality that top players would not risk injury as they have possible, even likely, lucrative pro careers in front of them.
Deion Sanders did play and contribute mightily to the ’93 Title Dallas Cowboys team, which semi’d the Niners in the last “CBS NFL/NFC package game” and similarly was integral to the Niners’ ’94 title team, which “semi’d” Dallas, en route to the crown.
Sanders also played on the ’92 N.L. Pennant winning Atlanta Braves.
