Yes, I remember that big trade with Herschel Walker and the Cowboys getting those draft picks. The Cowboys had a few terrible seasons, but rebuilt quickly.

If I recall correctly, Jimmy Johnson resigned after the 2nd Super Bowl championship, apparently finding Jerry Jones hard to get along with, if we can believe some of the gossip.

I think the back breaker for Johnson was Jones taking to the sidelines and hogging the spotlight towards the end of that second SB.
Two type A personalities that mixed like oil and water.

Supposedly Jones was pretty decent to the players. The coaches? Not so much.
