The Cowboys–Steelers rivalry is a National Football League (NFL) rivalry between the Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers.
CBS Sports ranked this rivalry No. 2 of the best NFL rivalries of the 1970s. As the Cowboys are in the NFC and the Steelers are in the AFC, they usually only meet at least once every four years and at least once every eight seasons at each team's home stadium, sometimes more often if the two teams finish in the same place in their respective divisions in the year they do not play one another but met two years prior, play in the preseason, or meet in the Super Bowl.
The Cowboys lead the overall series, 18–16. The two teams have met three times in the playoffs, with the Steelers winning two out of the three Super Bowls against the Cowboys.
