Dallas tied the San Francisco 49ers for the most Super Bowl wins by a team (5) and became the first team to win three Super Bowls in four years. This game was the third meeting between the Cowboys and Steelers in a Super Bowl (after Super Bowl X and Super Bowl XIII), which is currently the most between any two NFL teams.[1] For Pittsburgh, it was their first Super Bowl loss in team history after winning four in the 1970s. Pittsburgh would later surpass both the Cowboys and 49ers with 6 Super Bowl victories after the Steelers won Super Bowl XL ten years later and Super Bowl XLIII in 2009.[1]
Dallas' Larry Brown became the first cornerback to be named Super Bowl MVP, by recording two interceptions thrown by Neil O'Donnell and returning them for a total of 77 yards. The Cowboys sealed the victory by converting Brown's interceptions into 2 touchdowns.[1]
The NBC television broadcast averaged 95.13 million people in the United States, making the most-watched sporting event ever on American television, and the second most-watched program of all, trailing only the final episode of M*A*S*H.[2] The metropolitan Phoenix area hosted the Super Bowl again twelve years later.
