Barry Switzer is a Great Coach and man! He isn't Jimmy or Tom he is Barry and the man is a tremendous leader of men!
Every Cowboys snapback hat on here was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍
I feel like a huge reason why I'm so fascinated with the cowboys dynasty is that it happened during the best era of sideline apparel
I sure miss the days of the Cowboys being in the Superbowl brings back good memories. Wish these coaches could get us back there because the talent is here and has been here the last 5 seasons.
What a great ending and it was well-deserved. I have a story about Barry switcher while he was coaching the Cowboys. It was a client of mine that was living in a condo where Barry Switzer was living next-door while they were building his house remodeling, or whatever. Her mama was dying of cancer And her daughter put his book (bootleggers son) on his front door with a note saying, would you please sign this book? My mother has always loved you and it would bless her if you could do that! Well, Barry switcher went over to the house and spent the whole day with them and had dinner and everything. That’s the epitome of class just a good old country boy from Arkansas treating people with honor and respect.
Switcher ?
Unreal how people discredit Barry. Barry did it his way and won his way. He never tried to be Jimmy and I admire that as a man.
San Fran was on another level in 1994 and I believe even if Jimmy was the coach then, the Cowboys still lose that 94 NFC Title Game. Barry did his job and handled the opportunity the right way.
🇺🇸 America’s Team 🇺🇸
God Bless, Barry Switzer.

Great film Barry got us a ring
Just one more ring guys, for ownership, team and fans. This brought back so many memories.
Barry will give you the shirt off his back. He really does care about people. 💙
I convinced he's a great man....helping to integrate big-time college football....came from the wrong side the tracks and suffered the suicide of his mom..a regular guy..not a stuffed shirt.
The early to mid 90s was such a fun time for the Dallas Cowboys
Barry did a great job in stepping into a difficult situation ,great job , Coach
Difficult situation?? Great job?? Not what I was thinking he was flagged for 15 yards in the 94 NFC Championship Game
@@adamr6794 Give the great Niners teams some credit.....two incredible organizations that both earned their day in the sun. ( And no I'm not a Niners fan...Chiefs & Eagles)
Fantastic doc produced and edited by Kent Garrison. Nicely done sir.
Everyone should check out Kent’s podcast mad about movies. It’s a must listen.
War eagle 🦅
Barry Switzer is great, what a character
Love these Deep Blue docs. People forget that, save for 7 awful minutes in the Championship game against the 49ers, Dallas would have won 4 straight Superbowls.
GREAT doc...been waiting for doc on Switzer 's tenure as head coach .....LOVE Barry Switzer both as coach in collage and the pros ..but more so as man and human , flawed, tragic , humble ,loyal and completely puts himself "out there"..ask Bozworth about Switzer ..any of his ex players .also read his book "Boot Legger's Boy" will just make you like him more .
More like fourure as a head coach
@@adamr6794 huh?
You guys documentary team is one of the best in the business.... ESPN needs to snatch you guys up
Yes then no. ESPN doesn't deserve their talent.
Exactly ESPN does NOT!!!
ESPN sux
No
Nope!!! ESPN is trash!!
i have met barry twice great guy
Excellent look back st the ‘Boys! I can’t believe it’s been that long since we won a Super Bowl!
It'll be another decade before they do again.
Switzer is one of the greatest college football coaches ever. People often ignorantly judge his legacy for what happened as coach of the Cowboys, despite the fact he went 35-13 in the regular season, 5-2 in the playoffs, and won a superbowl as head coach compared to Johnson's 36-12, 7-1, and 2 superbowls.
He ran OU football into the ground and then did the same with Dallas. Both teams were out of control and left in shameful disrepair. No?
Adam R also true
@@adamr6794 Wrong on both accounts.
@adamr6794 The Cowboys weren't in disrepair. All Jerry had to do was draft Randy Moss and we probably win another super bowl in 98.
Never seen a guy win over a team like he did. Michael Irvin went from throwing trash cans to saying nobody deserved more credit than Switzer for their Super Bow run.
He's a thug and I can't stand the cowboys, I'm a Bengals fan and I know a thug when I see one, Michael Irvin was a violent bully
Excellent video. Were getting old guys.Great job. Cant wait for Jimmy Johnson video.
Thank you Jimmy Johnson.
wow! how did I not see this till now this is a great documentary!
Woody hasn't aged at all!
He’s handsome lol
March 29 1994... A day that will live in infamy for a die hard Cowboy fan. It's just as painful to watch it again as it was when it happened
It's been 27 years since we won a Super Bowl so if we look back and see who has been there from day one It's Jerry Jones and his decisions about coaching and players and salaries are his fault and he has to face the blame and embarrassing facts that the Cowboys are overrated and he is the best used car salesman in the world.
April 18, 1998 is the REAL day that lives in infamy for Cowboys fans.
Passing up on Moss is a FAR bigger mistake than letting Jimmy go.
At first I thought you was talking about Deion Sanders interfering with Michael Irvin in the championship game! 😮
The first five years Jerry owned the team but didn't feel part of it. He won 2 SB titles. The next 29 years he and his son have been a big part of it. They have 1 SB, and deep down they know it was Jimmy's leftovers. They've won nothin in 27 years.
Barry Switzer was the greatest college football coach of all time. He’s one of three coaches to win a national championship and a super bowl
With the wishbone. He won based solely on what Jimmy did before him.
@@heatherphillips5983 He won the second year after Jimmy was gone. He won a superbowl and national titles. Only three coaches have done that. Respect
WOW.. what an AWESOME Doc! I see Berry in a whole different light now.
And we're going to do it BAY BEE
Lmao still makes me laugh
Watching this in full, this made me appreciate what George Siefert did in San Francisco starting in 1989. He too followed a HOF coach and inherited a talented team with championship or bust expectations.
But Siefert's tenure lasted longer with more wins, division titles, and Super Bowl's.
Both Switzer and Seifert were worthy successors.
Hilarious to hear the pundits say Switzer can't coach.... He only won 4 national championships, won the most games of any college in the 70s, continued to win in the 80s but now "he can't coach." I don't care what level it is, this man can coach with the best of them....I'm not an OU or Cowboy fan....I'm just realistic...
I will always remember that...."We did it our way baby!! We did it!!!" 🤠
Coach Switzer was a beast. You don't just get super bowl rings for free. He earned that.
Wow this documentary was good enough to be on 30 for 30. Seems like they could've sold this to Prime TV, HBO, Netflix or something. Good work. It's crazy looking at all of the Dallas local media when they were younger.
Barry Switzer belongs in the ring of honor.
He does....only 3 coaches have appeared and won Super Bowls coaching Dallas....and Switzer is one.
Man...great doc. Seeing that 95 SB win was kinda tough though knowing that what it's been after that. Nearly 30yrs of sometimes close, but no cigar. The NFL is better when Dallas is in the hunt. Grew up and live in East TN, Been a Cowboys fan my whole life, hope to see these days return real, real soon.
Great work production staff and writers!
Lol 16:23 the moment Jerry knew things weren't gonna be fine.
If Johnson stays I believe the 49ers still win in 94, but I think the Cowboys remain a contender beyond 1996.
Thats debatable the foot on a throat mentality wasn't pushed at all that 1st year he relaxed things alot
Barry Switzer was the "let's get ice cream after the game!" kind of coach
He was too laid back
Switzer telling you how the job came to him is him telling you that Jimmy was fired.
Jimmy was leaving regardless.
@@supersexysega Jimmy with the chance to make history. 3 SBs in row? Not a chance. Jerry called Switzer about the job before the sit down Jimmy. "How would you like to coach the Dallas Cowboys?" Switzer: " I didn't know the job was available." Jerry: " Its fixing to be."
@@stevenpringle9225 it’s all history now there will never be this again at least in our lifetime oh well I’m good with it
The last good memories of a great dynasty.
WE STILL LOVE YOU BERRY!!!! I GOTTA BUY YOUR BOOK AGAIN!!! WE LOVE YOU BERRY!!! WE KNOW THE TRUTH BERRY!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!
What if I told you that they had a job. And they went and did it...baby
You don't hear Aikman using that kind of language with the games on FOX!!? LOL!!?
Been a Dallas fan all of my life. Along with other fans, I took losses personally. At age 9, 10 and 11, I saw my boys lose 3 straight NFC championships. Was fueled with hatred that JJ fired Landry the way he did and brought in another JJ. 1992, I was grateful that the superbowl drought was over. In many ways, I was happy to have Barry as the coach but HATED the way he was perceived. No blame should have come his way in the NFC championship of 1994. Aikman, who I did like, threw those interceptions, not Barry. He often threw shade at Barry which I did not agree with. I am glad Barry walked away a champion. Like my favorite QB, Danny White, Barry will not get the immense credit he deserves.
Still...go Cowboys!!!
Thank you for that....Barry Switzer was one of the most characterful people who EVER coached.
From Tom Landry to Barry Switzer in a little over five years.
It would be interesting to wonder and hear what Tom Landry’s thoughts were on all of this turmoil
@@RobTheNotary The vibe I got is that he enjoyed it in a schadenfreude type way. He never got over being fired, and word was that he rooted for the NY Giants in his final years. I remember watching an interview of him in the late ‘90s when the Cowboys started sucking and he was asked about the team’s then current state. His response was something to the effect of “I think Jerry is learning that you can’t always be good.” I just remember getting the impression that he was really relishing in the Cowboys’ decline.
This video randomly came up today. Im watching just so i can see the gun at the airport press conference. 😂😂😂
Great Documentary
Deion my second favorite athlete ever 🐐🐐
After the ‘95 NFC championship game I was so pissed off at him, because of that moment! You know what moment I’m talking about!! A year later after Super Bowl XXX, Man I’m glad they got that guy!!!
1995. The last time the cowboys or braves would win a title.
Btw ironic that the 2 teams favored in 94 (cowboys and steelers) both lost...then both made it in 95.
The 1994 Cowboys were not favored to represent the NFC in Super Bowl 29. The 49ers were 7 point favorites in the NFC Championship Game. Jones, Switzer, and several players from the 1994 team are simply partaking in revisionist history. The facts are that the 49ers defeated the Cowboys in Week 11 of the 1994 regular season, the Cowboys were riddled with injuries entering the NFC Championship Game, and they had to play a healthy 49ers squad on the road. IMO, the Cowboys went as far as they could in 1994.
@@pjtheory On point and people need to understand it would have been no different with Jimmy coaching the team that year. The 49'ers stacked the deck and the Cowboys had some poor luck on the injury side of things.
@@supersexysega you don't know what Jimmy would've done differently.... nobody does thanks to our idiot owner/general manager
@@juanel589 Dallas would of won the Superbowl in 94 with Johnson.
@@jackduncan5442 You can't say that...(and I hate the Niners).
Pats fan should watch this and be sooooo thankful ...imagine if Belichick had left after their second Superbowl ...not just losing a great head coach but what they would have lost in terms player personnel decisions , drafts , trades etc
Jimmy Johnson is still not in the Cowboys ring of honor! Let that sink in!
I think he could cares less.
I can't name any player/ coach that has been elected to the Hall of Fame for their sport who are not also in their own teams "Hall of Fame" or, Ring of Honor
@@clintwilson6380 Oh I think he does, behind that smile Jimmy wants to win every fight, so does Jerry. And Jerry holds all the cards.
Jimmy Johnson is there, in the Ring 💍 of Honor in 2023
Love some Bootleggers Boy... Great Coach, Better Man, but by far one of the greatest to Eva do that dam thang.
The 1995 roster of the Dallas Cowboys contained 26 players that had never played a down for Jimmy Johnson. This included Hall of Fame players such as Deion Sanders and Larry Allen. In addition, several players that either underperformed or were in Johnson's doghouse, thrived in the Switzer regime. This included Robert Jones, Chad Hennings, and Charles Haley. For example, Haley had 10 sacks in his two years under Johnson whereas in his two years under Switzer, Haley had 23 sacks. The 1995 Cowboys were not as deep as the 1992 and 1993 Cowboys, but from Week 1 to Thanksgiving of that year, they may have fielded the best starting 22 in NFL history.
Sad the mark tunei ending
Yeah, Switzer whispered something in Haley's ear and doubled his productivity. No matter how you twist numbers Switzer was a disappointment and anyone alive back then knows it. Court appearances were way up under Switzer's watch. The Cowboys became a laughingstock under Switzer. Great Job in 94
All that matters is who the last team standing at the time was the end of January
Excellent comment. Let's not forget that Irvin was already there and Landry was to draft Aikman a month after he was fired. The Jimmy's Team myth is bullshit and always has been.
@@genewilliams2942 Yup, and it doesn't stop at Irvin...Mark Tuinei, Nate Newton, Ken Norton, and Bill Bates were all added to the team during the Landry Era...Larry Allen, Ray Donaldson, Deion Sanders, Scott Case, and Chris Boniol were all added to the team during the Switzer Era. It's important to note that unlike Switzer, Johnson did not have to deal with the salary cap in Dallas and we all witnessed Jimmy's struggles with the salary cap system during his 4 year coaching stint with the Dolphins.
I can’t imagine any other coach during that time to step into Jerry’s world and be successful.
Haha Jerry Jones washing the socks and jocks himself!
I think Switzer was a damn good coach. Woodson was right he was set up for failure but guess what? he has ring something that many people who slate him haven't got!! especially Dale Hanson!!!
A good college coach no doubt... but he was nothing more than Jerry's puppet in Dallas
Dale Hanson is a dam joke that needs to get a life sn quit fuckin others up jus so he can get ratings he helped destroy smu a few years earlier for what .dam ratings an im share more money
Jerry Jones made the biggest mistake for his own EGO and his Texas Political Venture
Jerry probably couldn't stand Texas Stadium, he had plans for a bigger place, which would be coming
We did it! our way!
Hold up.....@25:25, did Emmitt just say, "Barry is going through a major transaction??? 😂
I caught that, too. Millions don't give you great grammar. TRANSITION, Emmitt! But man, could he run the ball!
@@mikeokcmedia if you hear him speak these days he's much better. Even in this documentary.
Left out the part where Jerry Jones basically ripped the trophy out of Barry hands
Dallas hasn't been to a Super Bowl or NFC Championship game since the 20th century
Problem is They Play Soft!! You got to be Hungry!! Not Spoiled. Oh my leg hurts!! WTF??
My Mom used to work at Deaconess Hospital, Mercy Hospital, St Anthony's Hospital, others, I think she got to see Switzer *TWICE* when he visited his players 1990s. My Mom Said "Hey, you can see him, talk to him on the phone" I said "Mom. You can get fired, it;s a Privacy issue between him and his players" she wouldn;t say. I missed two chances, I was afraid I was gonna get my Mom fired from her job, because she knew BArry was my hero. Isn't that funny, Hey Barry, I'm gonna go see you sometime in Norman, Don;t get me arrested, OK???🤣🤣🤣
Name of the beginning song?? Please!
Interesting factoid... No coach in NFL history won more playoff games in their first 3 seasons than Barry Switzer. From 1994-1996, Switzer won 5 playoff games which is 1 more win than George Seifert from 1989-1991. Switzer also won more playoff games than all of his successors combined. Playoff Totals Chan Gailey 0-2 Dave Campo 0-0 Bill Parcells 0-2 Wade Phillips 1-2 Jason Garrett 2-3.
Was any coach ever handed more on a silver platter?
@@adamr6794 Yup, George Seifert in 1989, and that 49er squad was arguably 1 of the top 5 teams in NFL history.
@@pjtheory I would argue Dallas going into 94 was a younger and more talented team.
@@jackduncan5442 I'm assuming that you're comparing the 94 Cowboys to the 94 49ers. I would agree that if the Week 1 roster of the 94 Cowboys faced the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game, the Cowboys would have gone on to appear in, and win their 3rd consecutive Super Bowl. The Cowboys team that played the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game, however, was not the same team that destroyed the Steelers in Week 1 of the 94 season. The following excerpt from SI writer Rick Telander's article on the 94 Championship Game says it all...
"Now Switzer is in the very position 49er coach George Seifert would have found himself in had he lost this game. He must apologize for having a team that is terrific, but not quite as good as the best team in the business. In fairness, it must be noted that the Cowboys were one beat-up outfit coming into the game, while the 49ers were healthy as kittens. Dallas listed 24 injured on the Thursday, and among the walking wounded were most of the offensive line and Emmitt Smith. “Think about it,” said Cowboy trainer Kevin O’Neill during the week. “Every guy who scores points for us has been hurt this season. It’s unbelievable to have our record with the injuries we’ve had.”
I would argue that the 94 49ers were a much better team than the 92 and/or 93 49ers whereas the 92 and 93 Cowboys were better than the 94 Cowboys. I would also argue that the 1994 49ers were the 2nd best team of the 90's, behind only the 1992 Cowboys. Compared to documented fact, however, opinions carry little tangible weight. For example, during the 1994 season...
- The 7-2 49ers defeated the 8-1 Cowboys to give them an edge in procuring home field advantage in the playoffs.
- The 1994 49ers were 13-3 and the 1994 Cowboys were 12-4.
- The 49ers were 7 point favorites over the Cowboys in the 1994 NFC Championship Game.
- The Cowboys were ranked #1 in Total Defense, yet they didn't record a sack or create a turnover in the NFC Championship Game.
- The Cowboys turned the ball over 5 times, and 4 of those turnovers were committed by 2/3 of the Triplets.
@@pjtheory I said that 92-94 Cowboys were more talented than 89 49ers and 94 49ers. I actually think the 92 49ers are underrated. They went 14-2 and had the league MVP. And Dallas kicked their ass in Candlestick.
Randy Galloway sure liked to pick on Switzer
Sun Devil Stadium (Super Bowl 30) was like a 2nd home for the Cowboys
Jerry lied when he said he and Jimmy were friends. Jerry still won't put him in the ROH. That says it all.
Jimmy will tell you that they were never friends.
I'm shocked this is on the official cowboys channel
Whether good or bad. This was a part of Cowboys history...
Great 1995 Blue Jersey!
March 28 Barry got the call March 29 Jimmy was fired decision was already made
It’s hard to feel bad for guys with 3 super bowl rings but I do....you can tell it still really bugs them that jimmy and jerry couldn’t keep it together because forget 3 rings....they were thinking 4 or 5
Deion his own bowling alley, gym , damn
Barry Switzer and OU winningest program in the 70's

Coach Switzer keep it Rev up!
Coach Switzer, thank you for keeping the ship afloat. Coach can coach but the owner/Gm gives you players….. Coach Switzer Thank You……
Jerry jong😂😂
58:19
Aikman:
“We need babysitting !!! We need babysitting!!!
I’ll tell you what.... the baby sitting is over”
Huh ????
Switzer was in the biggest LOSE, LOSE situation there can ever be.
Imagine if He comes in and fires every coach under him. It’d be 🥺😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Imagine he comes in like a tyrant and tries to be like Jimmy Johnson 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
He came in like he did.... let’s not mess this up. Y’all are grown men, act like it and..... what’d he get for that ????
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Yes it did have an affect after 1995 they haven't won anything since
16:08 We got a job to do and we gonna do it BAYBEE
???????? - Me, along with a WTF when Jerry signed the ex Packer coach.
I hope dak can bring one home finally
1995 was a great year for football except in Cleveland
and denver 8-8 no playoffs
Get me Deion ...if I had 11 men like him I could rule the world!
Commercials were more fun back then too.
I believe if they sign Deion in 1994 they win 3 in a row.
They didn't 3 peat but 3 out of 4 isn't bad
Put Barry in the ring of honor.
Beaten by the Panthers in their 2nd season
Kerry Collins
That Panther defense was dominant. They were also 9-0 at home that season. Losing Irvin on the first possession was devastating.
To my knowledge, this is the first documentary to mention the 1996 season. This was Barry Switzer's best coaching job with the Cowboys. The list of issues with this team was staggering, yet they somehow headed into a meaningless game at RFK with a 10-5 record. Irvin was suspended for the first 5 games of the season, back issues led to the retirements of Novacek and Haley, Lett was suspended for the latter part of year after being the front runner for Defensive Player of the Year, Smith played the entire season with bone chips in his ankle, and Aikman suddenly morphed into a JAG. Despite this laundry list of obstacles, Switzer's Cowboys dominated the Vikings and one could argue that if Irvin and Sanders were not injured the following week in Carolina, Switzer would have coached in his 3rd straight NFC Championship Game.
All these suspensions are a reflection of Switzer's leadership. The team went fully off the rails under Barry. And yes if everything was perfect Barry could have ridden Jimmy's coattails into a third championship game, but Barry was too dumb to pull it off and lost to a freaking expansion team. Dominating the Vikings is not an accomplishment.
@@adamr6794 You are a brain dead idiot who obviously knows NOTHING about football.
Aikman looks like he's related to the Kennedy's
Better than being related to the Clintons
@@michaelleroy9281 damn straight on that lol
The team was so good, they won the Superbowl despite the coaching.
Agreed
@@adamr6794 Wrong!
They would have won 5 straight if Jimmy stayed.
Aikman threw 6 interceptions against the 49ers in 1994, but Romo is the choker...
Romo facing a secondary like that he throws 10 interceptions. Lol, same guy who choked in 06,07,08,09,11, 12, 15. Stop. Get out of here.
@@jackduncan5442 Romo was consistently a better QB then Aikman "era relative". Aikman from 96-2000 showed what he truly was. He was on good teams still capable of winning. Not stacked to the brim goat rosters and he didn't do jack shit.
Jimmy was AWFUL when he left to the dolphins. He lost so much , and embarrassingly . Talent and treating and managing players is crucial . Jimmy Johnson is 3-8 all time against barry in college and in the NFL .
They wasn’t going to beat Green Bay in 96 there offense and Defense was that good and that nfc championship was going to be in Green Bay
They didn't play each other in 1996 so we'll never know
The elephant in the room is that he’s an Oklahoma football coach that kit, Texas University‘s ass more than they did Oklahoma while he was coaching. So they had to stain for an Oklahoma football coach. When these good old Texas boys just couldn’t take it. That’s a fact in the story. I saw him get treated like shit I was living there. I watched it all go down 10 minutes from Valley Ranch training camp
Love Barry Switzer dude eviscerated the culture of the Cowboys and they've sucked since 95.
Not really unless the standard is a SB.
@@supersexysega Good 👍 comment.
