In 1994, the NFL celebrated their 75th Anniversary and the Dallas Cowboys celebrated their back-to-back Super Bowl titles by unveiling the white "Double-Star" jersey on Thanksgiving Day. This jersey was used for special occasions and was worn throughout the 1994-1995 playoffs.
During the rest of the 1970s, the Cowboys grew in popularity, not just in Dallas, but nationwide. The Cowboys drafted well too, adding new legends like future Hall of Famers Randy White and Tony Dorsett. The fresh influx of talent helped the Cowboys to advance to win Super Bowl XII, and make appearances in Super Bowl X and Super Bowl XIII.

Super Bowl XXVII: For the first time in 15 years the Cowboys were back in the Super Bowl, facing the Buffalo Bills in Pasadena. The Bills jumped on the scoreboard first capitalizing on a fumble near the goal line to take a 7-0 lead. However, the Cowboys would turn the tables capitalizing on Bills mistakes to score 14 points in 25 seconds late in the 1st Quarter. The Cowboys would continue to make the Bills pay late in the 2nd Quarter by scoring another 14 points in 18 seconds to take a 28-10 halftime lead. After being outscored 7-3 in the 3rd, the Cowboys put the game away in the 4th, scoring 21 points to take a 52-17 lead, as the Bills committed 9 turnovers. The Cowboys would have the all time record for points in a Super Bowl with 59, but Leon Lett's long fumble return for a TD was wiped out when he began to hotdog by the goal line, and had the ball knocked out of his hands by Don Bebe.

They went on to face the Green Bay Packers in the NFL Championship game. The game, which happened on December 31, 1967 at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, turned out to be one of the coldest NFL games on record (about -13° F with a -40° wind chill). The Cowboys lost 21-17 on a one-yard quarterback sneak by Packers quarterback Bart Starr. The game would later come to be known as the "Ice Bowl."

During the early and mid 1960s, the Cowboys gradually built a contender. Quarterback Don Meredith was acquired in 1960, running back Don Perkins, linebacker Chuck Howley and Lilly were added in 1961, linebacker Lee Roy Jordan in 1963, cornerback Mel Renfro in 1964, and wide receiver Bob Hayes in 1965. In 1966 the Cowboys posted their first winning record and playoff appearance (10-3-1, beginning an NFL-record 20 consecutive winning seasons), and sent eight players to the Pro Bowl, including Hayes, Howley, Meredith, Perkins, and future Pro Football Hall of Fame members Lilly and Renfro. The 1966 and 1967 seasons ended with dramatic losses of 34-27 and 21-17 respectively to the Green Bay Packers in the NFL Championship Game, the latter loss referred to as the Ice Bowl game. The 1966 season would mark the start of an NFL-record-setting eight consecutive postseason appearances. (The Cowboys later broke their own record with nine consecutive trips to the playoffs between 1975-1983).
